Looks like the end is nearing for Groundhog Day, that is a tough week for them

Good for Great Comet for still pulling in a nice number without Groban!

I'm seriously happy to see the Great Comet doing well! I was worried about it for a bit there.

I feel like Comet has the appeal that it is the best new musical that you can actually get tickets to. And the "strange" immersive factor gets people talking (even if many don't like it) which Groundhog Day doesn't have.

Bandstand's numbers are great either. Probably just around their weekly nut. All three may shutter by Labor Day.

Groundhog Day deserves so much better. Haven't seen Bandstand or War Paint so cant say the same for them but they'll be gone soon

DEH held up remarkably well without Ben. Of course those seats were sold months ago. I wonder how the first set that goes on sale without him will do.

I'm pretty positive that Groundhog Day's Tony performance was the nail in the coffin for that show. Frankly, it's a decent production, but I won't miss it and I'm not going to be recommending a mediocre musical to my friends and family unless I feel like it's something they would like. I feel no need to try to keep such an extremely mediocre show open. They're marketing was and is virtually non-existent. This makes me wonder if people are sick of the "The Musical" musicals. Why spend $100+ on a ticket if you can just watch the movie on Netflix instead for free?

That being said, I hope that War Paint and Bandstand stick it out. Bandstand and War Paint have kind of developed a cult following with it's cast albums. Bandstand seems to be attracting teen girls and War Paint seems to be attracting older women and gay men. Hopefully these groups will be able to keep these shows afloat for a while longer.

Awesome numbers for Kinky Boots. The new Charlie is really bring people into the theatre. Hopefully, they'll find an equally appealing replacement.

Does Chicago always have these kinds of numbers?

There's no possible way that the massive production of Groundhog Day is in a financially sustainable place with those numbers. Heartbreaking, since it's one of my very favorite shows on Broadway. That said, I'm wondering which will be next on the chopping block: that, War Paint, or Bandstand?

Also, thrilled for The Great Comet.

massofmen said: "Ghd is fine, hogans told us all their numbers were sustainable until January and he is never wrong!

I mean sure they have barely been above op costs in the middle of the summer which means that in the fall they will probably be around 500k or less but no worries!

I mean sure they are always on tdf offering 45.00 tix in the middle of the summer and they just opened..but no worries! Hogan's says it's gonna be just fine so it will be!"

^FAKE NEWS^

Sad when you can't even get away from it here.

OR: Actually, you can. Just do a search on everything I have said on this subject and you will see I never said anything attributed to me above. (And that I have called out this fake news before!)
