Last week was the final week for the play “Purpose” and with the highest grossing week of the play, “Purpose” worked its way into the Million Dollar Club.
There was a general uptick in the box office on Broadway last week; partially due to the prior week running the annual 2-for-1 special.
As “Purpose” was preparing to bow out, “Art” began its run with the first previews. All three shows were completely sold out.
Half of the 28 shows running made it into the Million Dollar Club last week with the top two shows topping the $2 Million mark.
The Million Dollar Club:
“Hamilton”
“Wicked”
