Broadway Grosses w/e 9/2/2018: Summer Sets Sail
This week, the unofficial end of summer, grosses dropped overall by 4.67% due mainly to Hello, Dolly! coming off the boards. Total grosses for all shows was just over $32M.
Most shows felt slight increases thanks to the extra foot traffic from the long holiday weekend. However, all three Disney shows posted slight dips, suggesting their core family audience had other plans.
