OOTI is almost certainly still in the red. Circle is a tricky venue to make work, because it is small (hence the gross potential is not as good a metric as usual). This is not a small show, and it is not selling tickets at a viable price point right now. That said, it is too early to say it can't, though it is hard to see how it will survive long past the holidays, even if there are a few gangbuster weeks. 

Another exhibit in support of the notion that those who can, do, and those who can't, teach.

You would think HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS would stick it out two more weeks instead of closing early. They'll likely make the most $$$ those last two weeks.


A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Yes, they make more money in those last two weeks, but it doesn't mean that they'll make enough to cover running costs, let alone even begin to say those two weeks were profitable.

This is one of those situations where trying to logic things out is a fool's errand. I think a lot of people would think it'd be harder to manage to achieve numbers as low as these than to mount another Hamilton.

Home for the Holidays is the show Max Bialystock should have produced.

the numbers are so bad, if someone wrote that into a show, we would be saying it was not realistic.
