Broadway Grosses: Of Mice and Men Joins the Millionaire's Club in Final Week; Beautiful Continues to Soar

The star-studded revival of Of Mice and Men played its final performance on July 27, but not before joining the Millionaire's Club. The production, which announced its recoupment last month, took in $1,038,106 last week—the first time it hit the seven-figure mark. Meanwhile, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical broke a box office record for the third consecutive week and secured a spot in the top five grossing shows. The Jessie Mueller-led tuner joined box office perennials The Lion King, Wicked, The Book of Mormon and Aladdin.
