Where'd you get that from these numbers? Their attendance rate was 101.6%

HAMILTON (-0.2%)

Clearly this means Hamilton is closing in January.

neon, you should consider writing an actual book on grosses and just linking people to its Amazon page in the future

Why bother answering to begin with if not interested in explaining. Not everyone is as theatre savvy as you appear to be.

barcelona20 said: "Maybe I should clarify for those on here who don't understand. Yes, I know Hamilton sold out, but with standing room availability, the max capacity is 101.8%. I find it surprising that it would ever dip below 101.8%, even if it's .02%.

If you look at their weekly 2016 capacities, most times it's 101.8% but often 101.7% and sometimes even a bit less. Pretty sure that's a function more of their not making a few standing room slots available for certain performances for whatever reason than that they couldn't find anyone to buy them.

Another solid week for Liaisons...

I'm really upset the shuberts pulled the stop clause out on Matilda. It doesn't seem to be doing too shabby. If only they could have transferred the show at the very least, but I digress.

Would Matilda be doing this well if they hadn't posted their closing date? Better to go out with a bang.

Matilda is doing well but it's a VERY expensive show...and it's not making what it needs to stay open.

I was surprised when I was in London recently that Matilda is still such a hot ticket...out of all the shows at the London TKTS booth, Matilda was one of the few that offered no discounts at all..still after all these years.

@jorge, as I said, it is not the case. You can't trust everything you read here (or anywhere). First of all, the number of times stop clauses have been invoked can be counted on your fingers. Secondly, the stop clause is not invoked months in advance. Finally,I don't think the show has ever fallen into a range where it could be invoked in any event.
