Cinderella , hopefully the new LP and Berthe will bring in some more money for Pippin, Andrea clearly is not a big draw. Overall not a good week for Broadway at all.

Is Gentleman's Guide the most positively impacted TONY winner ever? Even during a horrible week the theater was full and it played to over 94% of paid capacity.

I told everyone that Rannells wouldn't hold an audience for HEDWIG

Wow this week sucked. I am going to be seeing a few shows this weekend and it seems like I will have no problems finding tickets!

But people say what a duff month September is becuase all the tourists have cleared off, but isn't this the start of the trade shows in New York City? Does this not help sales?

Gosh NewSync it's a pity the producers didn't consult you before hiring Andrew---did they get in touch with you re the new guy ?

I look forward to NewSynchopation's prediction of snow in winter as well.

At a $514K gross, I'd be willing to bet they STILL were profitable. Sure, it ain't NPH but it doesn't need to be. Make real money in the good weeks and break even in the tougher weeks -- that's all they need to do and they can enjoy a nice, healthy and (even more) financially successful run.

Hedwig is doing better WITH Rannells than I would have ever thought.

I'm very curious to see how ticket sales do with Keke/Sherri and Keke/Nene. I wonder if it'll be similar to Carly's stint with Fran, or less/more.

I do like the way Kinky Boots keeps hovering in the fourth or fifth position. Matilda was trailing it pretty closely and then this years hits Aladdin and Beautiful came in. Says a lot about its staying power.

I agree, I expected lower numbers for HEDWIG. I have to imagine they're still above their weekly nut even with that number, or not far off.

How many performances of IF/THEN did Idina miss last week? They've been dipping but that number seems particularly bad.

Looks like the Dim For Joan… or ELSE! Boycott is kicking box office butt. They better change their minds soon.

I believe Idina missed three, but possibly four performances? Definitely takes a hard hitting toll on those grosses.

Idina missed three shows but they still made more money than Pippin.
