Broadway Grosses: Pretty Woman: The Musical Remains a Record-Breaking Summer Hit

Labor Day theatergoers couldn't get enough of Pretty Woman: The Musical, the new tuner that has been packing in crowds and breaking records since performances began in July. The stage musical based on the smash 1990 film broke the Nederlander Theatre house record this past week for the third time since opening, reporting a healthy gross of $1,219,728 and filling the theater to 98.33% capacity. Featuring an original score by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance, and starring three-time Tony nominee Andy Karl and screen star Samantha Barks, this new show seems a sure thing as the 2018-2019 Broadway season heats up.
