looks like LEGALLY BLONDE is still going strong after this week. although their avg ticket price has gone down recently, hasn't it?

Posted: 8/4/08 at 3:48pmNice bump for Xanadu!
"In theater, the process of it is the experience. Everyone goes through the process, and everyone has the experience together. It doesn't last - only in people's memories and in their hearts. That's the beauty and sadness of it. But that's life - beauty and the sadness. And that is why theater is life." - Sherie Rene Scott

Posted: 8/4/08 at 3:54pmShall we make bets on how soon Thurgood will post its closing notice? (I'll be honest - I haven't even heard of it until right now, so maybe that's due to weak advertising.) Also, I really hope [tos] keeps boosting its numbers these next couple of weeks, because I'd really like for it to stay around long enough for me to see it...

Posted: 8/4/08 at 4:01pmSee what star power can do for Xanadu. Too bad she is not very good in my opinion.

I was really really hoping [title of show] would do better, and it did, but is it enough? I'm still terrified for this show.
So happy for ITH :)

Phantom is still doing almost 100% after 20+ years. That's incredible.
Legally Blonde was sold out when I saw it last Wednesday night.
Don't believe everything that you hear! Only the peeps involved know the truth!

Posted: 8/4/08 at 5:38pmyankee_fan907, Thurgood is also a one-man play. They're almost at 70% capacity. That's pretty good.

As long as TOS keeps moving upward, there's hope.
