Ouch for Journey's End and GG.

Nice jump for Company. Let's hope things keep jumping that way.

"Phantom" doing 101%? "Chicago" doing 99%? How great to see these shows doing so well!


Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

Wow, overall wonderful numbers!!! That's great to see.


Ebersole was out for most of the week, so I wonder what the numbers might have looked if she was there. Hopefully not that low!

^ That's true, Tink. I didn't think about that.

Still sucks for JE though.

Good to see Company having a bit of an increase. And wow, Phantom at 101.5% is higher than even Wicked or Jersey Boys!

Does Mary Poppins do standing room? I know ti does not do a lotto or rush but I didn't know about standing. If they did not how is it above 100%

Yes mary poppins offers standing room. I think you miss the upper portion of the stage because of the mezzanine overhang.

I think the only part affected is Step in Time.

I noticed that too. Good week for Disney. Nice to see Tarzan up there even if its only for a week.

That was a great week. It's sad that Ebersole was out, otherwise, GREY GARDENS would've probably seen a bump.
Great for CURTAINS and CHICAGO though! Alas, I did miss the years when two Kander & Ebb shows were running at the same time. Glad to see those times are back.

WOW! What a great week!

Excited to see that Legally Blonde is starting off on the right foot.

Also, I wonder how GG's box office will fare now that Ebersole is on vacation.

Next week, I predict a huge decline in numbers for The Pirate Queen...we'll see....
