I would think if you saw a musical number on the parade and you liked it you might buy tickets

Although appearing on the Macy's Parade didn't help the original production at the box office.

Don't forget Side Show opened last Monday so that was one full house of comps followed by more press thru the week. The temperatures plummeted to the low 30's most of the week and there is always a slump this week year after year.

Gentleman's Guide was putting up the same numbers a year ago. I do find it interesting that a year ago Kinky Boots was putting up $1.5M numbers the November after winning the Tony and Gentleman's Guide is not even making 100% of its potential in a much smaller house the November after its Tony win.

It was odd to open on a Monday night . That would explain the drop in grosses
