It's inked for the Winter Garden once MM ends. The creatives have been to do the specs

I would have thought MM would play with a few replacement casts for a year or so. The 2000 revival played 20 months. Maybe BTTFuture is meant for 23/24 season.

If I had to guess, I’d say you’re right, dramedy. Maybe it opens sometime I next summer?

Some gossipy posts need to be taken with a grain of salt. First, creatives checking out a theatre does not equate to a deal. Lots of times multiple theatres are checked out. Second, I am willing to bet a pair of the finest house seats that nothing has been "inked." I recommend a few deep breaths :-)

My post about it, after seeing it here, bears repeating:

The musical version of “Back to the Future” was derivative in ways that made it fun. Lots of references to other musicals and pop culture: light sabers anyone? Two and a half hours flew by, and the climactic set of special effects was truly special.

You’re welcome,

Bill Eadie

It says they are trying to raise the $23.5 million to transfer.

Is there any doubt they won’t raise it

If paradise square and Diana can probably raise $15m range, a London hit that won the Olivier award against moulin rouge and frozen should easily find enough suckers, I mean investors. Actually the $1.5m per week to recoup in a year is really not that unrealistic.

There is always doubt, and there are always other variables that are not financial too. But considering what we are staring at from an economic standpoint at the moment, I think it is fair to say that no one can predict that raising money is going to be a cakewalk for anything for the next period.

I want to know more. Do they have a full season of weird Christian musical adaptations?? Also... LOL at them keeping "hood girls" in the lyrics.
