I just want Pretty Woman to be successful Tony-wise. I think it was sensational. I think both Samantha Barks an Eric Anderson deserve nominations, if not wins. I think Samantha's biggest competition will be Stephanie J Block for Cher, but I am seeing the show at the end of June so I will be able to report back.
That was the obvious part. I'm talking about "OOTI has not, contrary to what seems like popular belief in some quadrants, been barely breaking even. Except for a handful of frames, it has consistently been in the red."

I'm planning on seeing the show in July and I like to purchase all of my tickets in advance - I still need to purchase TBITB and TBV tickets for my trip but I can only purchase one right now. What show do you guys think I need to purchase for first?"
The Boys in The Band probably, and try to buy your Bands Visit tickets before the Tonys

Re the comparison on Angels and 3TW, note that the former has 50% more seats to sell."
This is exactly why I will not go to a Disney show on Broadway, I would not be happy paying that much money to be surrounded by screaming kids and babies.
Miles, you should definitely consider seeing Pretty Woman, I saw it in Chicago and thought that is was splendid with a star-making performance from Samantha Barks. She is worth the price of admission alone.

Was just about to post this same question. Those numbers are brutal. I wouldn't be surprised if they closed after Chazz whats-his-name's run in the show."
I feel like they are going to have him come in to attempt to boost grosses (not sure if it will) and then close by Labor Day. Unless they put De Niro in the show too, I see

Oak? As in Okieriete Onaodowan Oak?"
Yes. And it was clearly a joke, Oak shouldn't go anywhere near Broadway again. (My opinion.)
