Broadway’s ‘The Notebook’ Sells Out First Three Previews As Overall Box Office Gets Chilly
In all, box office for the 24 Broadway productions totaled $21,192,251 for the week ending February 11.
Only a half-dozen shows bucked the downward trend, most notably Sweeney Todd, which on February 9 welcomed Aaron Tveit and Sutton Foster as the permanent replacements for Josh Groban and Annaleigh Ashford (understudies had been filling in since the originals departed January 14). Another show going against the downward tide was Hadestown, gaining a renewed momentum as it approaches its fifth anniversary in April with replacement cast members Jordan Fisher, Ani DiFranco and Lola Tung. Appropriate, the hit Second Stage production starring Sarah Paulson that announced a commercial transfer and extension today, lost a Sunday matinee performance due to Covid in the company, slipping $55,983 to$706,260.
