In Hedwig's case, I'd say better than "safe". At $500K gross - so figure around $450K net -- I'd be willing to bet the show still operated profitably last week. Also worth remembering that Hedwig only plays 7 shows and is in a theatre with a balcony.
One has to presume that Pippin, on the other hand, lost money in the six figures last week.

January really is going to be ugly. It seems like a sure thing that If/Then and Pippin will join those already announced. Will Rock of Ages and/or Les Mis join as well?
I also won't be the least surprised if Love Letters doesn't make it through its limited run or if The Last Ship closes up shop in the near immediate future.
I hear that Pippin will have some big stars in January. And I love how Both Pippin and If/Then really don't do advertising in Times Square any they need it.
ethan, what kind of advertising are you referring to? There has been a pretty big If/Then Idina billboard up in Times Square for quite some time now that says "See Broadway's Biggest Star Live"
Do those Side Show numbers reflect the closed balcony - Taking the total seats and dividing by the six performances, I get a capacity of 1303. Does that sound right?
Has a good deal of Carol Burnett's audience moved on to that big variety show in the sky? I'm surprised that such a beloved star isn't packing them in for Love Letters. Maybe it's too old fashioned and twee for modern audiences?
Any guesses as to On The Town's weekly nut? Really hope I have a chance to see it next year.
