Wicked Sets Broadway Record!

During last week’s bustling tourist season, the Great White Way brought in a staggering amount of $$$$$.

Wicked was the most impressive, raking in $2,092,745 and beating its Thanksgiving record of the top grossing week in the history of the Rialto.

Coming in right behind was The Lion King with $1,714,566, The Phantom of the Opera with $1,248,943, Shrek the Musical bringing in $1,055,261 and the revival of A Little Night Music with $985,662.

Not to mention, In the Heights increased their house by 53% and the new hit Fela! climbed by 22%.

Pretty impressive considering the recession! Plus, the theater makes everyone forget their problems!
