Shows are still coming. Just a bit later
But there's some good news for people who'd been looking forward to the 2020-21 season — at least for Mann Hall. All those canceled shows are still happening, Saxon says. They're just being pushed back a year.
“Dear Evan Hansen.” “My Fair Lady.” “Rent.” “Jesus Christ Superstar.” They’re all expected to be part of Mann Hall's 2021-22 season.
“It’s sort of like a pause,” Saxon says. “It’s a re-set. We’re picking up everything and moving it one year.”
Meanwhile, Artis—Naples hasn’t announced plans yet for its own canceled musicals. It's unclear if those shows will be rescheduled or replaced with different shows.
