Broadway Begins Spring Crunch Shakeout, With One Announced Closing And Lower Attendance For Some Newcomers – Box Office

Broadway box office for the week ending May 5, 2024.

A very slight tier below were the newcomers who filled between 91% and 98% of seats: Illinoise, with three heavily comped performances, at$684,393(91% capacity); Uncle Vanya,$998,040(92%); The Wiz,$1,458,478(95%); Mother Play, $551,925(95%); Mary Jane, $467,047(97%); Stereophonic, $591,519(98%); and The Outsiders, $894,176(98%). Also to note: While Appropriate fell into the third batch, the much-nominated and audience-popular play has been running on Broadway since December, and only makes the spring list because of a commercial transfer in March. The musical revival, which most recently starred Aaron Tveit, Sutton Foster and Joe Locke, who had taken over for originals Josh Groban, Annaleigh Ashford and Gaten Matarazzo, filled all of the seats at the Lunt-Fontanne in its final week.
