Memorial Day brings record-breaking week for Broadway
TicketNews.com – by KRISTINA LAFOUNTAIN
Broadway ticket sales were strong through Memorial Day weekend with several shows above the $1 million mark as New York City’s tourism season comes to a start, just in time for the beginning of the 2012-2013 Broadway season.
Broadway newcomer “Harvey” ($470,267) had another successful week with sales up 53.8 percent over the previous week’s sales of just over $300,000. Capacity for the show fell from 93.6 percent to 90.9; however, this time around the show ran an eight-performance schedule in comparison to just five performances during opening week, which helped the show to continue to increase their sales.
“Death of a Salesman” broke the house record at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre for the seventh time, according to Broadway.com. Ticket sales for the show topped $1 million through the holiday weekend as the only show to run just seven performances, earning it a spot as the sixth top-grossing show.
“The Book of Mormon” earned a record-breaking $1.6 million in gross sales, up nearly two percent, earning it the No. 3 spot among top-grossing shows. The production also had the highest capacity on Broadway, filling the Eugene O’Neill Theatre to 102.6 percent of capacity.
