I'm surprised it isn't doing better in previews

It is basically flatlined with the increase in grosses due to the increase in performances. As someone pointed out this week might be low because of the comps. But the weekend could bring in good business. If the show was bringing in $300k, then we could say it is dead. At $600k, it will take a few weeks to see if word of mouth helps. I was not impressed with even the fight scene, but I was on stage so maybe it translates better in the audience, we didn't see the screen above the stage with the commentators. But the audience seem to love it and leave on huge high. That should be translating to increase ticket sales, but It hasn't. The show is probably eating into the reserves to stay open, but those reserves probably are large enough to stay open through tonys. My guess it's losing $200k/week, which could mean the $1-2m in reserves could last a while especially if sales pick up a bit.
