In the Heights To Recoup Soon?

The show is doing well, especially under the economic situation, will it recoup anytime soon. The show probably had a modest flat rate investment, but the running cost are probably rather high (not as high as the complex shows like WICKED maybe, but probably higher than most minimal set shows). Is there a good chance we will see this show recoup by mid next year?

ps Please do not bash me for my lack of Broadway Financial knowledge, I just want to see if anyone has any thoughts/comments, or information that I don't know.

nah.

theyll go to hell in a handbasket

and what do youknow

In The Heights is probably a middle expensive production (Not expensive, not cheap) It's not as cheap as Boeing Boeing but not as expensive as Wicked or Billy Elliot. ITH is doing very well for the economic status, it's not selling out but it is still grossing about 6 or 7 hundred thousand a week. When they are lucky they can go up to 8 or 9 or even 1 million.

If you are worried about it closing don't be, it well be fine. It has enough money to get it through these tough times. I predict a recoup around February or March. That would be a year.
