Broadway Grosses: Hamilton Still Non-Stop as Holiday Box Offices Boom

The Fourth of July holiday was one for fireworks, burgers and, apparently, theatergoing. Productions including Aladdin, Frozen, The Lion King, The Phantom of the Opera, Wicked, Waitress, The Play That Goes Wrong and Straight White Men saw box office increases during the popular vacation week. Those celebrating America's independence also (appropriately) headed to the Richard Rodgers Theatre, whereHamilton raked in a whopping $3,173,284. Lin-Manuel Miranda's hit musical will mark its third anniversary since its Broadway opening on August 6, and it seems there is still much to celebrate for the revolutionary show.
