Sponsored By: The Book of Mormon - The New York Times calls The Book of Mormon "the best musical of this century." The Washington Post says, "It is the kind of evening that restores your faith in musicals." And Entertainment Weekly says, "Grade A: the funniest musical of all time." Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show calls it "Genius. Brilliant. Phenomenal." The Book of Mormon, the nine-time Tony Award®-winning Best Musical.
Percy Jackson is still bombing, but there are just four weeks of its run left, so the sheer bloody mindedness of the producers will keep it on to the end...
Pretty much every show is getting the holidays boost now. Beetlejuice took a tumble though. And still Lightning Thief continues to bleed money.
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.
I personally feel CFA will outlast DEH. Not by several years, but it just appears to appeal to a larger audience than DEH. Both shows should hit their 5-year marks, but I can see CFA lasting 500 more performances than DEH. CFA, in terms of grosses, reminds me of Beautiful, who always saw a dip in the summer and then a boost in the Fall when most other shows see a decline.

Despite loving DEH and relating to it somewhat, I can not deny that after I saw CFA I turned to my sister and told her that I didn't understand how CFA lost the Tonys to DEH. And I loved DEH, so this was-personally-a big deal. I totally agree with you, ACL2006. I do think your prediction will come true.
Huge week for Ain't Too Proud, which broke the weekly record at the Imperial by grossing over $1.7 million. And this in a week that was mostly down compared to the previous week.

Dont bother sharing good Ain’t Too Proud news on here...it ain’t welcome. (Though I for one am thrilled)

"Come From Away" is a wonderful show and I am glad that it has had box office success even though it did not win Tony for Best Musical. I wonder why the two shows you mentioned do better in the fall than summer.

Dont forget that CFA is in a larger theatre. DEH's average ticket price is still consistently higher than CFA. (I liked CFA but loved DEH).
