I think this might be the first time Hamilton has beat Lion King? If not, then it's one of the few times.

EDIT: Posted this at the same time as the poster above. I guess we think alike.

Nice to see Gentleman's Guide closing with a close to full house.

Imagine what Hamilton's gross would be if all of those stubhub/ticketmaster exchange tickets were included. You'd have to figure there are probably a couple hundred of re-sold tickets per show, with most of them going for between 100-300 above face value and some going for a thousand above face value. That could raise the gross by almost 100,000.

Gypsy is right.
