Well there is no doubt that Tom Hanks is a box office draw.

The Cinderella number is deceiving, as it counts last night's opening as one of the eight performances, though the house is always filled with comps on opeing night. So it reduces the gross significantly, but it's still nearly selling oout. I predict a big week this week, maybe over $1.2 million.

Good to see Poppins close on a high, Lucky Guy grossed more in two performances that some plays do for eight performances. Kinky Boots did good for one performance as well.

Wow, the gross % potential for Ann and Hands on a Hardbody -- those are really bad.

HANDS did less than $200,000 and it played 7 performances? Must have comped the mess out of it.

So HANDS will be the next show to post notice? Wonder if it'll even open.

horrible title.

Agreed. First thing I thought of when I heard the title was porn, and I was glad by reading the boards to find that I wasn't the only one who thought so.

After seeing what happened with The Performers, I wonder if the Hands on A Hardbody producers will keep it open long enough to get Tony noms. Doubt they could stay open until the awards, though. Didn't help Leap of Faith to even try.
