Broadway held virtually flat at $33.72M — down just 0.51% week-over-week but up 8.75% compared to the same week last season, continuing the new season’s encouraging year-over-year trend. The week’s defining story, however, was a wave of notable closings: Death of a Salesman, Every Brilliant Thing, and Cats: The Jellicle Ball all played their final performances, bringing three of the season’s strongest-running titles to a close. Death of a Salesman went out on a remarkable high, grossing $2.51M on a seven-performance week to a sold-out Winter Garden — its best week of the run. Cats: The Jellicle Ball also closed strong at $1.83M at over 101% capacity, and Every Brilliant Thing wrapped its extraordinary run at $887K. Hamilton led the continuing titles at $2.27M at just over 101% capacity, while The Lion King climbed $80K to $2.24M. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child held near $1.81M, MJ remained just under 100% capacity at $1.85M, and Ragtime stayed at a full Beaumont with $1.85M.

Among the rest of the roster, The Great Gatsby ticked up $45K to $916K, Maybe Happy Ending edged higher to $755K, and Oh, Mary! held steady near 100% capacity at $1.06M. The Lost Boys eased to $1.35M as the post-summer-peak market began to soften, and Schmigadoon! dipped to $1.03M. With three major productions now closed, the roster shifts meaningfully heading into fall — and the new season’s year-over-year gains, now in their third consecutive week, suggest a market that is finding its footing despite a leaner show count.
