Nice rebound this week, despite one less show and lower attendance.

Happy trails to OUR TOWN, Jeremy Jordan, Paulo Szot, Cole Escola, Conrad Ricamora, and James Scully. Pretty good numbers this time around for all of these respective shows.

Remember, Broadway Week discounts go into effect starting this week!

Time will tell how it fares with the cast changes, but for a show everyone thought was DOA after the reviews, the producer has to be thrilled."

For a show I cannot stand, the one thing I will give their flowers for is the fact that they marketed the holy hell out of this show and advertised every minute bit of praise and fan award, and blasted the show across the whole Internet (I was getting targeted YT ads for MONTHS). 

Considering a major complaint about shows failing is marketing, GATSBY has really nailed down how to hit the mass market and other shows could take notice.

Does Moulin Rouge have another stunt casting up its sleeves aside from Boy George returning? I can’t see it lasting much longer if it continues having sub million dollar weeks.

Pretty solid week in general. I'll be very curious to see the numbers for Oh Mary and The Great Gatsby in the coming weeks...

A Wonderful World continues to bleed money. where's the closing notice?

They've done a good job of promoting Great Gatsby, but it's also helped by being a big slick musical with high belting and energetic dance numbers and scenery.

AND while it's not a show for kids, you could take a teen, or your 90-year-old mother, or a tourist who doesn't speak much English, and they'd all probably have a good time. It's a bit of a throwback to the Cameron Mackintosh era, and that is not true of many Broadway shows of the moment.

It'll also make bank on the road and in international markets.
