And let's mis probavly needs to make $500k plus a week. It's been bouncing around $650k most of the fall and at 50% potential gross last week. It's probably on the fence of staying put unless the shuberts have a better show to put in there.

I imagine most people assume If/Then will close whenever Menzel leaves.

I thought they'd try to keep 'Les Mis' running until they're ready to bring the 'Saigon' revival over, but 'Les Mis' seems to have slowed down a bit.

it made only 36% of potential gross last week. the week before was $569K which after you take 8% fees off, is just above $500K, which is probably break even for that show. i doubt that they can financially wait until her contract is over which is probably feb.

Les mis started off well, but has really taken a dive. It was probably just too early for a second revival of the show.
