#2Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 6/29/14
Posted: 6/30/14 at 3:11pmHOLLER is still open why exactly? They made 17.4% of the gross potential and were playing to less than 40% capacity. Woof!

"Cinderella seems to be enjoying the Summer!"
Indeed. And 'Aladdin' is also really enjoying it as well.

I'm interested in next week's grosses for Cinderella. I want to see how well it'll do without Fran Drescher. I hope it continues these numbers but I'm doubtful.
Poor Rocky looks like it'll be gone by labor day.

Posted: 6/30/14 at 3:20pmLet's see how Cinderella does now that Fran has left. I'm really not sure how much longer Holler can hold out. The producers must be really hopeful of a boost because they are just throwing money at it. While I'm disappointed Bullets hasn't caught on, I don't know how much longer it can hold out as well.
#10Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 6/29/14
Posted: 6/30/14 at 3:22pmBullets will probably be gone by Labor Day too. I think there's just too many (better) options musical-wise on Broadway and Bullets doesn't have much of a draw.

Posted: 6/30/14 at 3:24pmRocky may be in trouble, but holy cow Bullets Over Broadway. That's falling off even faster than I expected. Looks like that can't make it much longer--especially since running costs HAVE to be high. I'd guess that and Holler will be closing soon, with Once and Rocky sitting on the bubble. A shame since I love three of the four.

I have a question about the top ticket prices. Is premium pricing taken into account anywhere? Maybe I am missing it.
For example, Hedwig says top ticket price is $248 but premium prices are at least $350.
Just wondering how that works or if it even matters, I guess.
#13Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 6/29/14
Posted: 6/30/14 at 3:30pmI saw the first preview of Bullets and I was almost positive it was going to a surefire hit a la The Producers. Really bummed it did not catch on. It's just s great show.

Posted: 6/30/14 at 3:37pm@Bwayphreak234 I saw it, too, and I thought the exact same thing.
#15Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 6/29/14
Posted: 6/30/14 at 3:44pmDon't judge by next week's numbers. Historically, the week of July 4th is the worst week of the summer season. Wait and see how Cinderella does the following week.

Posted: 6/30/14 at 3:46pmDo you think pippin will last into 2015?

Me three about Bullets. It's old fashioned great entertainment.
But it's almost like a 'big" show has to be a "kid's" show these days to really be successful. I haven't actually analyzed this yet, so for now it's just an off the top of my head theory.

Posted: 6/30/14 at 4:33pmPippin will last! they recouped and they are doing just fine and will probably bring in a big name into the show in the fall! As for Holler how are they still open? I read an article saying that Holler is making more money each week so they will stay open but this week they made significantly lower then last week.
#21Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 6/29/14
Posted: 6/30/14 at 4:37pmDoes it matter if the grosses for Holler are going up (which they didn't this week) if they're still losing what I assume is a ton of money?

Posted: 6/30/14 at 5:57pmAll The Way is doing so well - surely this has or will break records for play grosses?
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

Posted: 6/30/14 at 6:43pmI only see Pippin lasting until the first of the year, which is about right for a revival.
