Broadway Grosses: Golda's Holiday Dip

The Jewish New Year kept much of the key Golda's Balcony audience away from the Helen Hayes Theatre last week. With Rosh Hashanah starting at sundown Wednesday and lasting until sundown Friday, three performances of the show, which stars Tovah Feldshuh, were affected--and the entire week was down $15,043 from the previous one. Golda filled the Helen Hayes to 29.80% on average and made $66,135.
