CALL ME IZZY…ouch. It’s been a LONG TIME since I’ve seen gross/capacity numbers that low. Again, it’s a one person show with pretty much a unit set and some shifting pieces, so Smart’s salary is probably the biggest expense, but I can’t imagine that the show will hold on much longer, especially now they just announced 4 more performances with Johanna. (I feel bad for her.)

GYPSY should pack up their trunk and peace out end of August. The numbers are just getting worse and with Audra now out one day a week, it’s not going to get any better.

Same with STRANGER THINGS - although Netflix is likely keeping the monstrosity afloat with their deep pockets.

Izzy needs to call it. Wow. 

Johanna Day is wonderful in Call Me Izzy, but performing for an average crowd of 200 people in that theater must be difficult.

Poor Johanna Day. I'm sure that she is warned each night that the house is miniscule. But still, to look out and and see maybe 200 folks maximum in the audience can't feel great, especially in that huge theater. Hopefully they are small but appreciative houses.

I believe that producers hoped to keep Gypsy going at least through November, but I'm not sure it will be possible. Like most of today's high profile revivals, we are reaching the point in it's run where interest starts to dip. This production is simply too expensive to weather these decreases. And Montego Glover performing on Sundays simply isn't going to work (not knocking her talent as a performer, just strictly looking at her selling power, or lack thereof, from a business standpoint. Perhaps if they landed someone like Heather Headley or LaChanze, numbers would be a bit better. But ultimately, I think it would be in the same position it is in now). There's a very real possibility that Labor Day is the end of the road for this revival.

Also, does anyone know the current weekly nut for Book of Mormon? I constantly forget it's still running (though since I'm not a tourist, they obviously aren't advertising to me) and its grosses have been fairly soft. I don't think it's on the brink of closing, but it does seem to be trending downward.

My goodness, when was the last time a show played to 27% capacity? Yikes

Gypsy is still in trouble as we know but pretty much everything else has a solid week.

Very curious to see the John Proctor numbers post-Sadie.

The Gypsy numbers are actually much better than I expected them to be.

Re Izzy, does anyone know why Jean.Smart has been  out so long?  Since it was doing badly with her, they should just close.

As someone who liked Boop, I find it frustrating that their best week is closing week…they may even have made their weekly nut.

 

Yeah Izzy and Gypsy bye bye 

I had wondered when she was first out if this was just a way to end the show early and save face because of “an injury” but now I’m just confused.

Nope.

Im "sure" the Izzy producers are still trying to make the show "work"...awaiting for Jean's return...and possibly find a "big"-ish TV name to replace/extend (since 54 is likely empty for a bit longer anyway)

Three of them, plus Just in Time, continue to do fine - or better than fine. My question concerns Operation Mincemeat. It appears to be showing the first signs of weakness, mostly in terms of the average ticket price. I have never known what the show's running costs are, but I can't imagine that consistent weekly box office totals less than $700K are going to cut it. But I may be overestimating its running costs, given the small scale of the musical.
