Broadway Grosses: Farewell to Beauty, 110 and Grey Gardens

Broadway said goodbye to three musicals on July 29, including Disney's long-running hit Beauty and the Beast, which filled the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre to 100.07% of capacity and grossed more than $1 million in its final week. Grey Gardens broke the Walter Kerr house record by grossing $677,169 nearly $75,000 more than the previous record set by Doubt, and filling the theater to 99.86%. Audra McDonald's star turn in 110 in the Shade helped fill Studio 54 to close to 90% capacity in the revival's final week. Meanwhile, the highly anticipated revival of Grease, starring You're the One That I Want winners Max Crumm and Laura Osnes, began previews on July 24, grossing more than $882,000 in its first week and filling the Brooks Atkinson to 99.65%.
