Broadway Grosses: Fun Home, Something Rotten! & More Climb Charts After Tony Nominations

After receiving 12 Tony nominations last week, Fun Home can continue celebrating. As buzz over the Jeanine Tesori and Lisa Kron musical continues to grow, so does the show's weekly gross. The tuner took in $531,985 (just over 70% of the show's potential in the Circle in the Square Theatre, one of the smaller Broadway houses). We expect numbers to increase this month as Tony Sunday approaches. Another Best Musical Tony nominee, Something Rotten!, also received its highest gross of its run at $801,033. An American in Paris, which—like Fun Home—received 12 nods including Best Musical, secured a spot in the top five grossing shows for the second consecutive week, joining perennial box office favorites The Lion King, Aladdin, The Book of Mormon and Wicked.
