Ah you're talking about the end of this year - to me Autumn/Winter 2018 means September to December 2018 so I was a bit confused from the title as to why we were thinking so far ahead!

Yeah I'm not sure what year we're in here? Autumn & Xmas 2017 and then Winter 2018? Or all 2018? And what's the difference between Xmas & Winter? Seeing some of the shows you've listed under Winter 2018, I presume you mean Winter 2017, unless you're expecting Jamie & Mary Stuart to be running a year and a half from now...
Anyhow, Evita will be at the Phoenix in the Autumn, with The Exorcist during Autumn/Winter and beyond, possibly.

No it doesn't make sense, as the Winter 2018' straight after Xmas, got looped off, so therefore they typing box doesn't match the posted comments box, which is a shame as It took me about 30 minutes to complete.

A bold attempt but lots of TBA at the moment. Lots of opportunities for some new exciting theatre!

Colour me confused!
Perhaps list the theatres traditionally rather than creating a chart that is unformatted with messy entries?

If you want to have another crack at it, use the "Insert Table" feature. It's the button beneath the Font Size drop down that looks like a grid.

Anyway.
Rumoured in Baz that Cleansed and Hedda Gabba would transfer from the National, I would say the later is unlikely as it's now touring.
But now wondering if the Theatre Royal's, Bath production of David Hare's Racing Demon will transfer, it seems to of got good reviews?

We haven't had a David Hare in Wendy's End for a long time. Not because he isn't commercial but because he has a tenancy at the NT !

Perhaps the Nederlanders are having the decorators in, before Fiddler arrives in the autumn.

Is Fiddler going there? It did occur to me after reading the reviews this week.

I was just reading the same reviews as you, but I think it's been staged with a false proscenium arch.

Glengarry Glenn Ross is on its way to London for a short run, starting from around October time I think. Starring Christian Slater.
