Turkey Week - salivate at your leisure.
Happy trails to Leslie Odom, Jr. (those HAMILTON numbers!), Jessica Vosk, Durrell "Tank" Babbs, and Phillip Johnson Richardson.
Interesting that ART's numbers went down with just a few weeks to go, even with an extra performance. Did any of the actors miss at least one show?
JUST IN TIME holds relatively firm, even with Groff missing 4+ performances. I was expecting a total below seven figures.
Hoping this is the start of something for STRANGER THINGS with the release of a lauded fifth season of the streaming series, and not just your typical Thanksgiving bump.

Should Two Strangers be worried? That's a low number

I would not be worried about TWO STRANGERS just yet. Even if the capacity is lower than expected, it just opened. Plus, it’s a relatively cheap two-hander show with a turntable set. I would say if it starts to consistently sag under $450K, then worry. But I will say that with QOV on its way out, it’s the only new musical in town until March, so maybe they should capitalize on that?
Side Note: CHESS just broke the Imperial box office record (and their own) for the second time this month. They first broke it three weeks ago, beating a late 2019 record held by AIN’T TOO PROUD by about $150K

It’s a low number but it’s such a small show with no demanding star salaries that it’s likely still hitting its weekly expenses.

So it seems ST season 5 premiere had some effect on First Shadow and it got it's highest grossing week since opening in April. Now is this enough to sustain it after the holidays? I still see this show closing in 2026

I appreciate how knowledgeable all of you are on what could keep a show running and when they should be worried!

Running costs are 600. Need to gross around 700 to be break even. Hopefully the xmas holiday themes will help with sales before the January drop.

Not sure where you decided to pull that number from, but this is what was disclosed in Forbes about 1.5 weeks ago.
In addition, the fixed weekly operating costs of Two Strangers are estimated to be $480,577. Adjusting for inflation, the show should cost less money to run each week than any other new commercial musical on Broadway since at least the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The surprise news last month that the show could receive up to $3 million in state tax credits is icing on the cake.

Well I invested in the show. So maybe someone told me the running costs before I committed. What is filed with early paperwork is a projection not the final number. But yes on the tax credit! - although the budget is more like a play number so it may only qualify for about a million. Don't know the specifics of that. And it is still the lowest costing show out there!

I think Stranger Things closes around the 1 year mark, before they have to do any major recasting.
I’m curious how much Wicked saved on advertising expenditures over the past month or so as the film rolled out into cinemas.

IMHO, it's hard to tell if the new season actually had any effect on it considering this was a major tourist week that would have seen its numbers increase regardless.

I thought JUST IN TIME would be lower too though I do remember prices for last week were sky high and perhaps the sold out shows when Groff performed were high enough to offset the lower numbers when he was out. In addition, there were enough folks who watched JUST IN TIME and were ok with the price they paid despite not seeing Groff perform.
