Nice improvement. It should keep getting better as the weeks go by.
And starting with next week's grosses, A Chorus Line will be added!!!
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

It's good to see that most shows improved this week. I'm glad that Hairspray and The Producers are higher than they were last week. I hope the numbers continue to climb.

Posted: 9/18/06 at 4:54pmWhy applause for The Wedding Singer? The show failed to broke even once again. I wish I knew why the producers continue to keep the show running.

Posted: 9/18/06 at 4:55pmBecause it's improved the most.

Posted: 9/18/06 at 6:00pmI'm curious, does anyone know what the break even mark is for The Producers? Considering the large cast and massive scenery, it must be high.

Posted: 9/18/06 at 6:05pmHmm... perhaps Wicked may finally be starting to crack? Of course, a simple .1% is hardly noticeable on any other show, but when it's been 100% for so long, such a small value feels humongous.

Posted: 9/18/06 at 6:55pmYAY TWS! They improved so much this week, lets hope they keep going up!

Yes, I was kidding. It's far and away the highest grossing show on Broadway. It's not going anywhere.
Maybe they should start stunt-casting? Perhaps Phyllis Diller could step in as Elphie, with Suzanne Sommers as Glinda. That'll pack 'em in.

*dances for wedding singer*
lets go wedding singer, you can do it!!! just hang in there a bit longer!!
I think constantine deserves many thanks right now, even from the people who dont actually like him that much 
I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.
