Broadway Grosses: The Cher Show Breaks a Million Dollars as Audiences Pack Neil Simon Theatre

Cher is taking over the Great White Way, and we're more than OK with that. The Cher Show, the splashy new bio-musical based on the life of the Oscar-winning singer, had a strong first week of seven preview performances at Broadway's Neil Simon Theatre. The glittering tuner took in a gross of $1,065,993.00, filling the theater to 95.20% capacity. Other Broadway newcomers that saw strong numbers include the epic new play The Ferryman, which took in $1,001,994.90, and the celebrated stage adaptation of To Kill a Mockingbird, which grossed $1,130,163.00 in a seven-performance week. The fall season is heating up as new works kick off and audiences test out the latest that Broadway has to offer.
