broadway grosses

BROADWAY THE HITS WAY: Break out the feather headdress and coat yourself in glitter—it's time for the Broadway receipts! And speaking of accounting, multiple sources reported last week that Kinky Boots has become the first of this most recent season's shows to completely recoup its investment, a feat it achieved in a mere 30 weeks.

1. The Book of Mormon $1.76m
2. The Lion King $1.72m
3. Kinky Boots $1.63m
4. Wicked $1.54m
5. Motown: The Musical $1.39m
6. Matilda $1.17m
7. Betrayal $1.10m
8. Pippin $894k
9. Jersey Boys $889k
10. The Phantom of the Opera $851k

In other Broadway news, the UMPG-spawned musical Does This Bus Go to Amsterdam? has been sidelined due to everyone being wasted. (10/8a)
