depends on the nut obviously, and I don't know what that is estimated to be. what I do know is that the average net gross is around $675k which seems pretty close to what the nut might be. But not much would have been returned even if the nut is considerably less: at $600k, the show would have left $16.5mil unrecouped.

Wasn't their nut around $800k?

probably not too far off from the whole thing. They lost a ridiculous amount of money

Really unfortunate to hear. I recall its London run last year was sold out sold out. Perhaps it is just timing as one of the causes for its demise? I recall wondering a year ago if this show would open on Groundhog Day itself.

I would imagine that they lost the entire investment, or close to it.
Seems like they really busted a nut.

And didn't Minchin and Warchus put a lot of their Matilda earnings into it?

They had a "successful" London run. That had to have brought in some seed money for the Broadway production, right? Also, they will be able to use a significant part of the set for the touring production so there's at some money to be saved that way. Let's hope the investors make some of the money back.

I doubt that set can tour. Too complicated. Think of all the problems they had at the beginning. Cant deal with that every time they move to a new city.
I think one of the reasons is what I have been saying for awhile. You open everything at once, i.e., mid-March to late April, and a lot of stuff is going to get lost in the shuffle. Look at the non-musicals. All opened at once, creating an issue for the average theatre-goer who would attend a number of them over the course of the season...not 6 or 7 weeks. Net result: they all failed.
