Broadway Grosses: After Tony Award Wins, Curious Incident & Fun Home Bring the Celebration to the Box Office

After securing five trophies each, the two productions that received top honors at the 2015 Tony Awards celebrated gangbusters weeks at the box office. Best Play winner The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time saw its highest gross since New Year. Meanwhile, Best Musical recipient Fun Home brought in its biggest gross of its run, as did three other musicals that performed on the June 7 ceremony: An American in Paris, Something Rotten! and Finding Neverland. Although it still appeared on the bottom end of shows by gross, It Shoulda Been You seemed to benefit from its audience favorite performance on the Tonys, having received a considerable boost in gross and capacity. On the Town, while drumming up a slight increase in gross via its average ticket price, was unable to fill the colossal Lyric Theatre any more than in recent weeks.
