Was that the reason it was at 99.61% capacity instead of 100%+? Possibly

Does it matter? No, considering it was still at 99.61% and had

Oop, I totally missed Leap of Faith!
 

The Nominations came out on 5/1 and they closed on 5/12/2012.. But this does seem to

Edited to Correct my error.. Yes, Leap of Faith seems to be the only Tony Nominated Best Musical (at least since 1980) to close between Tony Nominations and the Awards. Anything else that had been struggling and closed usually did so a

Since the beginning of Covid, he stated "Broadway will never come back" and all of these insanely dramatic always wrong predictions. Like, when it snowed a QUARTER of an inch, he predicted the shows would be canceled for "weeks". He is just ridiculous with his assumptions and is always wrong. Does anyonehonestly think if these shows were closing in a f

I think Cabaret will stay close to sold out, especially with TKTS/discounts, but I could see the Avg Ticket price dropping down into the $150 range, lowering the weekly grosses to about $1.25M/wk. It was in the $200+ per ticket range for the first part of it's run but fell off to the $170/$1.7M range at the end of Rankin/Redmayne's run. If the advance stays this light through Lambert/Cravalho run they will need to start looking to MUCH bigger stars to pull the grosses they n

Not with those grosses it isn't. BttF has been struggling to elevate to bonafide hit status since it opened. It is probably barely breaking even most weeks and has only played to sold out houses 3 weeks since it opened.

The Winter Garden has too much potential profit for the Shuberts to let an underperforming show stay there long term. They

I love a good Season Guessing Game!

TV - Hairspray makes the most sense.. the tour played to a sold out week at the Paramount last year, so bringing it back as the 5th's summer show makes sense, especially if the tour starts to wind down and it closes here, since the original production did its Pre-Broadway tryout at the 5th in 2002, though I'd love to see them self produce a production when the rights are available. (Other possibilities: How to Succeed..., Bye Bye Bi
