Broadway Grosses

Well it's that time again theatre fans? Don't tell me you forgot what today is did you? It's Monday and that means it's time to give you last week's Broadway grosses. Once again no big surprises as the same same set of shows hit the one million mark last week. They were Bily Elliot,Fences,Promises,Promises,The Addams Family,The Lion King,and Wicked. Like I said. "No surprises".

Now besides those six shows there were six other shows that hit the $700,000 mark. One interesting note is that Jersey Boys which has been in the top five shows on Broadway since it opened dropped down to 88% from 98% from the week before. Look I'm not saying the show is going to close anytime soon. Things like this just happen.

Believe me Jersey Boys is going to be here for a very long time. With this week's Tony Awards there should be a dip in some of the new shows as there are a lot of Tony voters seeing the show this week before Sunday. Now usually some shows close the week after the Tony's due to the lack of awards not translating into more business. We will soon find out. Until next time theatre fans.
