Yay, Grey Gardens went out on a high!

I only wish the grosses could be like that through the whole run.


I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

Exactly, those are the kinds of numbers the show deserved throughout the whole run, not just the past three weeks. Oh well, it is great to see it go out with a bang like it deserves.
It was overall a good week for Broadway.
XANADU's numbers are impressive.

I can't believe Legally Blonde is bringing in so much! As much as I loved the show, I didn't think it'd be 1 million successful.

Only some shows CAN make a mil. because of the number of seats and lack of discounts.

I think I'm one of the few people that openly loves Phantom of the Opera, yet even I have to admit, their numbers, week after week, defy credulity. How do they stay so high, 20 years or so into their run while other fantastic shows continue to close? There must be some kind of special aromatherapy crack injected into the theatre before each performance.

Why was Beauty's gross lower this week than last week? Because so many closing night tix were comped? I'm perplexed!

Henryt, you're exactly right. I'd be willing to be 75% of the theatre or more was comped closing night.

It's so bitter sweet for me to see Grey Gardens have those type of percentages. It should have always been as successful as it has been in the past few weeks but as others have said, I'm glad it went out with a bang, a big one at that!


Happy...Everything! Kaye Thompson

Will other shows suffer with the opening of the "soon-to-be-blockbusters": Little Mermaid and Young Frankenstein?

I'm sure they will, especially around the holidays. I'm thinking SA will continue to do really well, but I think XanadU may sadly go down, down, down, down.

that sucks for the shows,...but i must say it makes me (a ticket buyer) a bit excited, in the sense that I may FINALLY get to see Jersey Boys.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but I'm sure Jersey Boys will continue selling out regardelss of whether YF and TLM are the hottest tickets (which I'm sure they will be.)

New hit shows help other shows too. Say you are a tourist visiting New York, and you love Young Frankenstein or The Little Mermaid, it might make you want to see another show, in which case any number of other shows on the boards reap the benefit.


Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop.

Im also surprised at how surprised everyone is re: Legally Blonde. Its a big smash hit with relatively great reviews, a built in fan base of teenage girls and law firm outings, and damn good attendance so far- 89% of the Palace, thats pretty big numbers.

congrats to em.

i am quite dismayed to see Grease is filled to 99% capacity before opening. just because that means it will be around for a long time, is critic proof...and grease is SO SO dull at this point.

i dont know how long Drowsy is gon stay open- but it wont be thru the holidays. and i cant figure out whose ego is big enough to insist on Deuce clinging to these pathetic numbers.
