Musicals Thread (New Year!)

Welcome! The purpose of this thread is to talk about all things related to the wonderful world of musical theatre. Each week I will post a thread with a topic/question for everyone to respond to. This is also a great place to mention any new musicals you’ve discovered and/or general recommendations for other musical fans. Heard/seen any good shows lately? Have any theatre news to share? Tell us about it!

Last week I forgot to post this because of the holiday, and I was super sick. But now I’m better, and the Musicals Thread is back! Considering it is now 2018, I thought it would be good to talk about any musicals that you’re looking forward to this year. Is there something coming to Broadway that you’re excited about? Is there a local production near you that you plan to see? Any new cast albums coming out that you can’t wait to get your hands on?

I’ve mentioned before that I’m not that good at keeping up with the latest musical news, so I don’t really know what to be excited about in 2018. I am interested in Mean Girls, but other than that I’m hoping that you all will help keep me up to date with the newest shows.

So, are there any musicals you’re looking forward to in 2018?
