Broadway Grosses: Pre-Tonys Dip

Last week was a tough one on Broadway--21 out of 29 shows currently playing full performance schedules were down from the week before. Both The Boy from Oz and Wicked played only seven performances because of the Tony Awards, which could account for their drop, but the all of the other shows performed eight shows as usual.
