Patrick Stewart MacbethI’m sure this news will cause a flurry of Post-Its over at the [title of show] [tos]ibility board, but it seems that BAM’s sold out production of Macbeth, starring Patrick Stewart, may get the chance to bloody the boards of Broadway. (HT: Broadway Abridged)

According to Reidel, Emanuel Azenberg, the veteran producer behind The Odd Couple and Movin’ Out, has quietly met with theater owners to see where Macbeth could land in this packed season.

One possibility is the Imperial, now home to the critically acclaimed August: Osage County. In April, August will move next door to the Music Box, freeing up the Imperial for Billy Elliot in late summer. That leaves a potential window - from the end of April to the middle of June - for a limited engagement of Macbeth.

Everything hinges on how soon the producers of Billy Elliot want to start building their set at the theater. If they want to move in right away, Macbeth will be out in the cold.

So if you missed your chance to get tickets in Brooklyn, stay tuned to Man In Chair to find out if Birnam wood will be moving to West 45th.
