Broadway Grosses w/e 2/23/2020: To Kill a Gross
Grosses leveled off last week coming out of the holiday weekend. Overall, the street dropped 6% coming in at $29M, though attendance was flat week-over-week. Most of the drop can be attributed to American Utopia being off the boards this week.
SIX continues its strong start barely breaking $1M its first full week of performances. With an average ticket price of $121.73, it’s in good company along with To Kill a Mocking Bird and The Book of Mormon.
