Broadway Grosses:Week Ending August 21, 2011

That's right theatre fans. It's time to talk about the grosses. Can you believe that Summer is almost over? I don't know about you but I am tired of the warm weather. Bring on the snow. Last week there five shows that hit the one million mark at the box office. They were The Lion King, Wicked, Spider-Man, The Book of Mormon,and How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. No big surprises there. Same shows as always. In the coming weeks four shows are scheduled to close. The good news is between now and the end of the year fourteen shows are opening. Now that is something to get excited about. Which ones will fail and which ones will succeed? It's going to be an interesting fall. Until next time.
