I bet there’s a regurgitation of something DE has previously mounted at Sheffield....

I've tended to prefer recent Minerva musicals (which can be new work) to revivals in the main house, and certainly wouldn't want to see any of those suggested above - though have no ideas of my own to put forward. And surely even if DE does continue to rely on re-staging work from Sheffield, he'll eventually exhaust this option?

Putting my money on Oklahoma! As the pro-rights are unavailable. Pretty disappointing as it was last staged at CFT in 2009. Don’t think DE will want to revive his big successes from Sheffield (Oliver, My Fair Lady, Anything Goes), just yet.

I think everyone in the UK should be banned from staging Oklahoma! until we've had Daniel Fish's production transfer from New York.

I was really hoping that 'sexy oklahoma' would transfer from New York at some point, so i hope its not that as if this transfers theres no way we'd also get Daniel Fish's production

If it was going to be Oklahoma can I please put in a request for Robert Fairchild to be in it. After all him and his doggie are currently over here so they could stay for the summer.

Gotta be Oklahoma! And on their current form, no-one outside of Chichester will see it! Where have all the tours/transfers gone?

If they have chosen to do a show about a brand new state, it will need a stellar cast to stand any chance of a transfer.
It is a show that really doesn't sell without names these days - as the last tour showed

Well, Chichester did Oklahoma in 2009 - 10 years ago, although it does not seem as long as that. It just shows that the number of guaranteed box office shows are very few and far between! Although I would have thought that Chichester audiences would have supported something that hadn't been done - especially with a name or two!
Although interestingly the last London production was the NT production back in 1998 with Hugh Jackman and Maureen Lipman! SO perhaps they are looking to a West End transfer as it has not been seen in the capitol for 20 years!

I'll be surprised and disappointed if it is Oklahoma again. 10 years really isn't that long for a theatre like Chichester.

Annie Get Your Gun was done at the Crucible in 2016. No exclamation mark though.
