| INTO THE WOODS is the kind of show ENCORES might do as their special benefit, with big stars. INTO THE WOODS has been on Broadway 3 times, most recently in 2002. Its produced constantly in the US and the UK. There are so many musicals worthy of a second look, and I would imagine some pretty big BRoadway names would be willing to do them the first year or so back for Encores. I fear they will roll a set of shows that are just as likely to get commercial revivals - so what service is really being provided. That said - the other two shows are ENCORES type shows - THE TAP DANCE KID and THE LIFE. So lets not get too excited. | |

| 87, 02 plus the Central Park production & the off-Broadway Fiasco prpduction. Agreed it feels more like a gala/benefit title like SITPWG in 2016 |

| If you go to the ibdb page for Into the Woods, you see the 1997 reunion concert listed. Yet if you go to the page for a cast member of the benefit, you won't see it listed unless you click on "Special Events." It's inconsistent and it confuses people (including writers for the New York Times and other periodicals). It's easily fixable. They already do it for performers. | |

| I agree about this and would just point out that there are other similar situations. Broadly, I lot of them fall under what I would call the "real estate" view of Broadway (as opposed to the production view), e.g., the "In Residence On Broadway" concerts of a few years ago. | |
