Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 9/9/18

Morning everyone---Just wanted to be first...x

Multiple shows dropped by 100k+, and HOH....dear Jesus--fix it......

ouch

Head Over Heels, Once On This Island, The Nap, Kinky Boots, Summer, Waitress, Bernhardt/Hamlet ....

Hansen, Mean Girls, Band's Visit... I guess the audience for those shows going back to school really hit them hard. Some had their first dip under 100% in the past year!

EDIT: I have no idea why I put years... Clearly, I wasn't thinking while typing.
Nonetheless, Head over Heels is head over heels in debt at this rate.

It's worth noting that it was Katrina Lenk's vacation this week (right?) which might have effected sales

Hard? Nearly sold out houses with slightly less premium seating? A lot of shows would wish for such hardship...

There is no cause for an ouch for five of the seven shows you name. Two are recouped and profitable, one is profitable, and two are early weeks of a non-profit's run. On the other hand, there are two new musicals still running that have a combined gross that has to be the lowest in both absolute inflation-adjusted terms and percentage in this century, and perhaps of all time as to the latter. I think the last double whammy that might have flirted with this level of failure (but without inflation adjustment) would be a few frames of Xanadu/Passing Strange, a decade ago.
