Broadway Grosses: Kinky Boots Hits a Box Office Spike as It Enters the Land of Todrick

YouTube sensation Todrick Hall is back on Broadway, and he's here to raise the grosses up for the long-running Kinky Boots. In Hall's second week of performances, the Tony-winning musical grosses $888,131—the highest it's been since the week ending March 27 (Emmy winner Wayne Brady's final week). If the production can swing another similar spike, it's possible Hall can bring the show's grosses back to seven figures. Meanwhile, Hamilton topped the boards, celebrating its highest-grossing week at the Richard Rodgers Theatre. Waitress broke a house record at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre, grossing $160,589 in a single performance (Saturday, November 12 evening).
