A lot is happening at Broadway In Chicago!
I had to fly out for a one day turnaround to see a show and meet with producers. This is a show that will knock your socks off! It’s so much fun but I can’t give you more details than that right now. Today we had producers come in to tour all the venues for a new show that they are thinking of bringing to Chicago FIRST! Sounds spectacular and we made sure they all know that Chicago is fond of being first. What’s great about touring new producers around Chicago is that they fall in love with the city. What is not to love? And we always credit Mayor Daley(opens in new tab) for all the beautiful flowers and parks and our forefathers who had the foresight to not build on the lake(opens in new tab). Everybody loves Chicago – even Elton John has Chicago fever!
SPRING AWAKENING(opens in new tab) is still with us but only for one more week – you must stop what you are doing and go. It is one of those shows that you don’t want to(opens in new tab) miss(opens in new tab). JERSEY BOYS(opens in new tab) has really been busy with summer tourists and is now planning its second anniversary! We have meetings this week with THE ADDAMS FAMILY(opens in new tab); it is great to be able to present a world premiere pre-Broadway production. We are also looking forward to YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN(opens in new tab) with some of the original Broadway stars Roger Bart and Shuler Hensley.
What a fall we have shaping up!
