Wow, theaters have to love the Christmas holiday season. Finding Neverland almost 1 .5 million and Wicked almost 3 million.

What a nice sendoff for "Dames At Sea" and "Therese Raquin" (two shows that I saw recently). Those are awesome numbers for "Chicago"... a million plus. That doesn't happen very often. Wow!

$1,033,996 (updated weekly grosses)

$652,030 (previous week's grosses)

$381,966 (increase in grosses)

$1,025,846 (full gross figure)

100.8% (wow!

I don't think you can consider "jumps" to closing shows, Dames at Sea and Sylvia since the previous week there were only 7 shows as opposed to 9 this week. So technically they didn't have great weeks which is why they closed. I liked both shows very much and am sorry to see them go.

Was at Spring Awakening again on saturday night, seemed to be sold out!, (at least in the orchestra), I do know they were close to sold out the entire week,s o happy about that. For anyone wondering my TDF seats were side orch row O seat 21, great view!

Also looking at what is available this week on ticketmaster, a lot has ben sold especially for weeknight performances, I wonder why? given that i'm sure many tourists just left the city.

Nice to see Hand to God go out on a high note (well for them!)

The key for a few shows wil be the next 6-8 weeks."

What shows are you referring to? The only show that is struggling and hasn't announced closing is Allegiance, IMO.

Finding Neverland for example. Lots of people have wondered how it will do after Matthew Morrison leaves in January.

If you click on a show's name on the gross page it will take you to the historical gross section for that show. From there you can see every week that is recorded by clicking on "All" in the list of years. Once there you can click on any of the column headers and it will order the weeks using that criteria first, so you can easily see things like the highest grossing week ever, the highest attended week, etc.
