I'm surprised War Paint is doing so well.

Anastasia did incredibly well for only 4 performances!

Holy Anastasia!  Can those numbers be right?

Wow! Almost a million dollar week for Come From Away! Guess the reviews are helping out a bit.

It's nice to see Come From Away and War Paint close to hitting a million.

Poor Sweat and Significant Other.

How long before SIGNIFICANT OTHER and SWEAT close...?

Nice to see Waitress join the millionaire's club with Jessie's last week!

I think Sweat will stick it out because it just got some pretty good reviews and has a good shot at Best Play.

Yeah... The SIGNIFICANT OTHER numbers are brutal...

How is GROUNDHOG DAY doing? Also, people should see COME FROM AWAY before the buzz truly picks up... I see it winning Best Musical...

OMG, Anastasia! So impressive!

With the prices for Sara, it should spend 10 weeks there after a one-week break.

Amazing numbers for WAR PAINT, COME FROM AWAY & ANASTASIA!

[Skimbleshanks2]

Is it possible that people bought tix in advance for WAR PAINT based on the names of the leading ladies alone, like I did?? I can't imagine that show having strong word of mouth - but perhaps I am wrong!!

Of course people are going for Lupone and Ebersole alone.

Anasatasia's got an amazing start. I can only imagine what might happen if it gets good reviews. 

Amelie and Groundhog Day are a bit concerning. Unless they find tune some stuff before their openings, I say they'll close by Tony night unless they pick up major nominations or garner rave reviews.

Significant Other, In Transit, and On Your Feet just amazes me with how their still running, much less selling tickets into 2018.

Groundhogs gross seems low, but could that be due to handing out comps to those who went to the first preview? So happy for Come From Away. It's amazing to see a show like it without much name recognition out grossing those that do. I think it's funny it's gross and Miss saigons were about the same

"Amelie and Groundhog Day are a bit concerning. Unless they find tune some stuff before their openings, I say they'll close by Tony night unless they pick up major nominations or garner rave reviews."

Fine tune what? It's too late now to fine tune anything before their openings, marketing wise.

Jorge this is GHD's second week, not first. No first preview comps are included.

People who attended the first preview of GHD got comps for future preview performances since they didn't perform the entire show on the first preview.

Also surprised War Paint is doing this well.

A Bronx Tale continues to deliver strong numbers without much fanfare.

You've a fair point about Amelie. As for Groundhog Day, they've quite a bit of time to make changes from London to opening night, as we've heard is being done to Charlie & the Chocolate Factory.

So far Groundhog Day has made no changes from London, from what I've read here, so...

Happy for Anastasia but I'm not sure why people were doubting it would be a commercial success in the first place.

So happy for War Paint. Proof that Patti CAN sell tickets especially when combined with Ebersole. Even if the momentum only lasts a few months, there shouldn't be a doubt that Patti's name still has some box office appeal.
