Broadway Grosses w/e 4/12/09
I have received several requests from subscribers asking me if I can include the weekly Broadway grosses on my blog (especially those in the Will It Recoup contest), so here they are!
Here's how it's going to work:
- Every Monday (or Tuesdays if the Monday is a holiday), I get the grosses emailed directly to me from The League right before they go public.
- I'll post them as soon as they come in, which means there will be two posts every Monday.
- If you subscribe to the blog via email (see Feedburner box to the left), the grosses will get emailed to you every Monday evening.
- The Grosses will be categorized under Broadway Grosses, which means you'll have access to all of the grosses going forward if you want to do some of your own research.
Hope you all find this helpful!
