Everything has to be OPEN by late April to be eligible for the Tony Awards. (So almost nothing begins previews in May.
Playbill.com has a great list, but off the top of my head:
Matilda Kinky Boots Diner (supposedly)) Hands on a Hard Body Motown Cinderella
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?
These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.
and considering that Scandalous & Chaplin were flops, my bets for the four Tony nominated new musicals will be: Matilda, Hands On A Hardbody, Kinky Boots & Cinderella.
A Chorus Line played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013.
CINDERELLA will most probably be considered a revival.

"What's next? Snow Black and the 7 Swaggers? Shasquirta and the Beast? 101 Weavematians?
Willis in Ghettoland?" - Dave19, in reference to the new ANNIE remake.

Oh, they already ruled on that? That's odd that it's a new musical since it ain't so new.

I would put good money on Cinderella being a revival, but the book being eligible for best book.
I would be shocked if the committee deems it eligible as a new musical. The show has had too many major productions onstage, including being seen in NYC in several forms, for it to be considered a new musical, even with the heavily revised book and an expanded tune stack.
