I mean, is Wicked really at risk of closing? 96.37% of seats filled last week. Up $86,500 to over $1.2 million. The only shows that had a higher gross was Hamilton at $2.5 mil, Potter at $1.5 mil, MJ at $1.5 mil, and Lion King at $1.6. If you are going to replace it, you want something that is going to sell greater than $1.2 million a week for a long haul. Seems like a tall order, in this environment right now.

Is it touring after that Chicago stay?

Maybe Happy Ending has launched it's tour in Baltimore. The last dress rehearsal was to a packed house of local Baltimore school students, most of them getting their first taste of live theater. Really nice touch and a good experience for the cast & the kids. The Hippodrome has had to enact Lucky Seat to fill seats, and sales are still not great for the mid-week shows with some full rows still sitting unsold and unclaimed via Lucky Seat. Just not a lot of buzz for this one. The Sunday debut s...

If they can loop the movie actors in for some time to keep the show afloat for a couple of more years, they'll then have the HBO cast of the new Potter series to pluck from for stunt casting as well. Really has a chance to keep the show going for quite some times. Potter fans abound, and the previews of the HBO series seem sharp and impressive. Could inject even more life into the franchise. Perfect show for tourists to see in NYC, with the known brand. Inject some star power to it with known...

Rosie was a train wreck. Not a good look for her. Oof. Terrible.

That website has been up there for quite some time without any updates. That's not a new placeholder. I signed up for email and text updates long ago, and never had one. So, don't get excited. LOL

It has been officially announced. Jan 3, 2027 closure. Happy trails, ladies.

Six is ... wow. That is unreal. Cute show, but for me there isn't much re-watchablity. One and done for me, and seems like many folks feel that day. It was a good run for them, and they had a pretty successful tour that rolls til at least June 2027.

Yes, totally feel as if all shows on Broadway and on tour and starting later and later past the advertised start time. I always assumed it is on the audiences lazy attitude about getting to seats on time.... folks used to be seated and ready and nowadays it seemed like everyone likes to stand and drink and chat until the last moment.

Feels like a show that NEEDS a dynamo to play the one and only role. Feels like dynamo-types aren't keen on touring North America. Taxing show with a taxing travel schedule. Will be HIGHLY curious who they can pull to do this show.

The facebook fan page was getting jammed with folks asking multiple times per day who was the Phantom for this pulse and that pulse, or asking when Clay was next up. So, the mods banned posting those questions and answers. I know there is a Reddit thread that stays up-to-date on who is preforming in what pulse, but I don't have Reddit so I can't link you. You'll have to find on your own if you're on Reddit.

I predict that Evita will re-coup. Seems like a no-brainer to me.

Wait ... almost everyone is guessing Schmigadoon? I thought it was almost 100% certain it was Two Strangers?

Lots of blaming of Trump, gas prices, and Canadians in this thread. While that might be a small sliver of some issues. I really think it is because there is a bunch of BAD shows with BAD casts. Everyone is plugged into reviews online nowadays. When you have a cast and a show the fans want, it is still selling. Harry Potter, Hadestown, Lion King, Hamilton, Oh Mary, Ragtme, Chicago, Rocky Horror, Every Brilliant Thing, ... good shows and selling well. Death Becomes Her, Titanique, Stranger Thin...

Dang. That was FAST.

I don't think some of you understand what the OP is saying. They are not stating you can't buy a single seat if you are solo. Of course that is allowed. What they are saying is it won't allow you to LEAVE a one seat gap between you and the next patron. So if Seat 1 and 2 are sold, and seats 3,4,5,6 are unsold. You can't purchase seats 4 and 5 and let set 3 by itself on an island. You MUST buy seats 3 and 4 so that 5 and 6 are together as a pair, or buy seats 5 and 6 so that 3 and 4 remain as ...

Selling terribly for it's stop in Baltimore this week. Aggressively trying to dump some tickets via Lucky Seat. If you enter, you'll certainly win. Had a co-worker put in 4 Lucky Seat chances with 2 email addresses for herself, two for her husband ... and they won all 4. Tons of seats still remain unsold, even after the Lucky Seat winners started to drop today. Zero buzz for this one. Solid subscription base in Baltimore and a solid following for single show tickets, shows rarely struggle thi...

ElephantLoveMedley said: "Wow,Chicago is killing it these days."I noticed that. I thought Chicago was trending to a closer, but they have gotten the ship back on course?!? Perhaps they are the benefactor of some really bad newer shows on Broadway right now ... tourists might pass on something like Beaches to see Chicago again, instead?
