i sure hope chitty lasts. i love that show!

"At the opening night party, they had clowns on stilts, jugglers, a chocolate fountain, popcorn, hot dogs. [My son] looked at me like I had been holding back. Like, 'This is what you do?' I had to tell him, 'No, no, darling. Opening nights don't usually look like this.' It's usually a dark bar with a bottle of vodka." ?Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Jan Maxwell plus i proudly share the title of the shortest member over the age of 10 with wickedrentq!

Poor Chitty... stupid relatives that thought seeing a show every night would make me tired. What do they know? Because of them... I couldn't see Chitty!

Naked Girl is doing decently, but I wish Piazza numbers would go up even more. I am surprised they extended it, becuase it's not doing awful, but 75%ile isn't the greatest... Spelling Bee isn't doing too hot either.

Naked Girl is being filled with the tens of thousands of Roundabout subscribers, so its box ofice numbers will be strong for the entire run, regardless of reviews.

I think that's great... I am glad that Matty is getting more exposure through this play.

75% and 85% in the deadest month of the year and that isn't doing well to you, korenglish?

Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

Looks like everything is doing okay. Has Lationologues officially opened yet? Or is it not doing previews or what? I haven't heard anything about this show. Except for the small video on Broadway.com.

Latinologues is in its third week of previews.

i know this is kind of old now, but I was just looking back and noting that Fiddler outgrossed:

Beauty and the Beast
Rent
Chitty
The PRODUCERS
The Light in the Piazza
And was just a few points under Hairspray and Spelling Bee.

That is amazing compared to how they have been doing. Thank you Rosie! Anything think the show could extend if Rosie keeps bringing in a crowd?

popcultureboy-

It's been in the 70's for the last two weeks, and almost 60% for the week before... I don't think that is "75% and 85%". It's just discouraging to see some of the other shows going back to normal, and Piazza being beat by Fiddler. I can see that the shows numbers are increasing, but I hope it goes to the 80's at least this upcoming week! I just meant that I wished more people would go see Piazza [and also Chitty].
