Can you point to that, I'm not seeing it in the Production Contract, but could be missing it."
It's in the "Agreement And Rules Governing Employment" handbook. If I recall correctly, the language is vague and just says a comfortable temperature, clean water etc. but they provide the specific guidelines when needed.

ACC:$822,983, 97.44% gross potential, ATP of $124.34
There's a producer out there pitching a different version that they are hoping to bring to Broadway. Apparently, if the London version doesn't transfer in the 20/21 season, their option to bring it to Broadway expires.
BJR said: "$818,000 wa a below their stop clause? Wow.
I presume the amount is related to gross potential, and it’s a large house, but that still seems pretty high for a stop clause.
There are plenty of shows playing now that would be happy with such supposed lean grosses."
It's in the theater owner's best interest to have a high stop clause. That's part of the negotiation of getting a theater, but it's almost always higher

Yes, the original article from THR doesn't mention it, but on the other hand, that's not a Broadway site. The News Desk needs to do better."
I think the "news Desk" byline is used when press releases are run verbatim, there isn't usually any reporting or even

The Nederlander Org manages the theater, but they don't own it. The majority owner is Vornado (Daryl Roth's Husband's company.)

I assume by advance sales you mean you've looked at the seating chart on Telecharge. You'd need to look at every performance to get a good sense of how sales are. And even then you'd only have a rough idea of % sold not the

According to conversations I've had with people involved, it was never going into CITS. They are using the same set from the Asian production and those are for a proscenium house. Apparently it is coming in next season.
Anyone know which address I would send my letter to? I would like to send Casey Nicholaw a program of my Elf production from November and December of last year at my local community Theatre for him to sign."
Those look like home addresses. Sending something to someone&#

That doesn't happen - even though it's the same producer - profit from Moulin Rouge doesn't go to King Kong investors. It stays with the Moulin Rouge investors.

The Inheritance and Slave Play aren't exactly straight plays. (I'm here all week, don't forget to tip your servers.)
Rainah said: "Anyone know what the nut for Tootsie is? The Marquis has to be more expensive than smaller theatres right?"
It's more expensive in that there are more ushers and box office staff on the payroll. Shockingly they charge the same for air conditioning as a small theater. Tootsie's weekly is in the high 600's.

What is their advance?"
Just skim through Telecharge and you'll see most dates have very low sales. Maybe 100 seats sold at best. There's little advertising for this show that most people, including theater people, don't know a
