I wouldn't consider presales a defining factor since ticket buyers' habit has changed after the pandemic. Many shows have not had great presales but are doing great during the run. Unless of course the show has a big name attached or excellent built-up WOM.

 

Having said that, it's way to soon to predict how it'll do but it seems to me BOOP tried to take advantage of the whole 'Barbie' movement success back in 2023 but it's 2025 now, does an

I hope this is received more as an education..rather than a shaming.

Broadway community, theater goers, tourists, family members, friends…

A new show cannot survive unless YOU support. I am 2 for 2 now in 2024.

Act 2 is very solid with a solid opener, the big tap numbers, "Smiling", and the finale featuring the title number. This might slowly find an audience if A Beautiful Noise could as well. I'd assume it's also cheaper to run than A Beautiful Noise as it has a smaller cast and or

Yikes Tammy! Those numbers are even worse than last week, I can't believe it's playing at 38% capacity, the palace must be a ghosttown. It must be so hard for the entire cast, it should have closed before Thanksgiving. 

 

So happy for Death becomes her! Swept away and A wonderful world are definitely in trouble and might close by January, terrible numbers. MHE seems to have increased but I'm not sure it's str

Up about 150k and (according to multiple sources with their operating costs) a profitable week even if it’s slim. Lots of shows took dips in attendance this week.

Tammy Faye hasn’t even closed yet. Yikes."

Yikes? To that? While this has certainly discussed to death in another thread and didn't need a thread of its own, Tammy Faye's closure has been announced, and it is closing in 16 days. It hardly seems like speculating about what is next for a theatre that will be av
