Well...Spamalot had critics comps all week and comps for opening night. It should come bounding back for this week, March 21-27.

DRS made a huge leap too, over $100,00, I'm very happy for them, they deserve it.

That is so great for Rent and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. And any show that went up this week for that matter.

Also...

BRAVO to LA CAGE AUX FOLLES for rising nearly $97,000 to $575,892

also to DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS for beating SPAMALOT at the Box office both in $$ & %. Yes, I know it was because of openning night, but I would LOVE to see that happen more regularly - and it is possible. DRS @ 94% and $738,317 is pretty damn good!

Yikes. What's Little Women's weekly nut again?

It's 70% Pab, based on Live Broadway.

Well, maybe that's the link that you should have posted when you started this thread and the not the one from Playbill.com. Someone's numbers are obviously not correct.

From the look of it, LiveBroadway rounds up or down (compare a few weeks with Playbill's numbers and you'll see).
