Notably, 24 productions posted gross increases this week, compared to the same number of productions that posted losses last week.
“The Lion King,” “Hamilton” and “Sweeney Todd” were the three highest-grossing productions.
Thirteen productions played to 95% capacity or greater, while five played to less than 70%.
“The Lion King,” which played nine performances last week, grossed $2,638,957, up 8%, in its highest-grossing week since April 16 when the production last played nine shows. Capacity maintained at 94%.
“Some Like It Hot” continues to fluctuate at the box office. The musical had a stronger week and grossed $894,152, up 12%, and played to 78%, up 7%.

“The Cottage,” “Back to the Future” and “Here Lies Love” remained in previews.
