Has a musical in recent times ever recouped this fast? Crazy! Does anyone know the capital expenses that they were trying to earn back? If so, we can estimate the average weekly nut. 


"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022) "Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009) "Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

This is great!!!!!!!! I remember seeing the first oreview from the front row and everyone I waited in the rush line with was worried the show wouldn't even recoup because of its limited engagement.

great to hear it recouped and will get a cast recording too!!!!

All y'all asking for a video recording need to remember that this started as a one-night only benefit concert. Then some extra performances were added. Then it transferred to Broadway. Then it announced a cast recording. We should simply be grateful that we've gotten this much!

This is my all time favorite show. But you're all cry/screaming about this? No offense, but I don't think the vocals here warrant a casting recording. The recent revival is still my favorite. Jenna Russell is THE Dot. She's incredible. Ashford is a great comedic actress, but I don't think she understood the depths of the character. Jake was great, but I don't think his vocals need to be preserved anywhere.

Preserving the original orchestrations with two additional pieces for the first time since 1984 is a major.  Even if you're not a fan of the new vocal performances, having the original orchestrations preserved again should be exciting. The orchestrations of the last revival were a total embarrassment.

^^^ Yup.

Even if you don't love the performances, the orchestrations from the last revival are atrocious. I love Jenna Russell but I can't listen to that recording anymore because of it. It sounds like it's me and two friends playing from a bathroom.

Given how the weekly gross for this show is roughly over $1 million each week, do you guys think the show would have still recouped had they been up for Tony consideration?

OK. No one is forcing you to buy or listen to it...

I don't know if this is accurate but Riedel said around 7 million

This is incorrect. Oh Hello, On Broadway recouped this season and went into profit.

It does seem like an error. I'm sure even DEH has recouped already, as well. Maybe they meant the first show from the spring.

Dear Evan Hansen has not recouped yet. Sunday is the first musical from this season to do so, but it's the third show after The Front Page and Oh, Hello.

A bit late to the party, but what terrific news all around! I'm debating whether I should buy the CD or just get my favorite tracks from iTunes. But I am most happy that I actually got to see this one in person.

Sondheim is an immersive experience. I rarely  just listen to single tracks. If I'm going to listen to something like "Sunday..." I listen to it in it's entirety. I would recommend the full album.

A bunch of them posted on Instagram stories as well! The excitement in the studio was palpable.

I always need to listen to a Sondheim show in its entirety for the full effect...but I can see building a playlist, too. I so wish this was filmed. I was involved with the home video release of the original production. Loved putting together the audio commentary...Sondheim, Lapine, Bernadette and Mandy in a tiny little studio...with enough food for a small wedding!! Sondheim made mental notes of everything that was said...and he had verbal notes ready for potential edits!

I like to think I could make a kick-butt Sondheim playlist with all the individual tracks I have on my iPad. Lol!

You can tell if a particular energy/excitement is "palpable" based on social media posts?  I'm asking sincerely; this is not a rhetorical question.

I'd say so! Several of Ashley Park's videos on her Instagram story zoomed/moved around the studio, and everybody looked very excited to be there (the cast, orchestra, even the producers). It definitely didn't look like just another day at work.
