Its got a super low weekly run (for a musical) and is printing in the $1.2m range - I'd be surprised if we dont see an announcement at closing that they've recouped.

What is SITPWG's initial investment to recoup? What is the weekly running costs? Presuming the weekly running cost is around $500k and weekly gross for the show average of $1 million for ten weeks, then the show will recoup if the initial investment is below $5 million. If the initial investment is above $7 million, I'm not sure if it will recoup.

Almost nobody who saw it out of town thought that. We knew better.

Sunday recouped this week. Expect an announcement in the next week or two.

^ wow! I hope so. Also, I'm assuming they were waiting to recoup before announcing a cast recording. Hopefully that's the reason for no announcement yet.

I thought the same thing. I couldn't make it back to see it before it closed, but I need this preserved asap

I'd rather not get into specifics, but they were well under $5mm.  $500k weekly run is a good ballpark (including royalties).  I think most of the people involved had a good sense they'd recoup before it even opened

Ah ok I wasn't sure if it was published before someplace or not. I just made those estimates for easy math but if the inital investment is below $5m, then yeah I can totally see SITPWG recouping! I really hope they record it on broadwayHD!!!
