NEW YORK POST:
Speaking of losses, investors in “Comet” are baffled that their show, which was grossing more than $1 million a week, will return only 20 percent of its $14 million costs. They’re demanding an audit.
Every Broadway show gets audited at some point, but it’s unusual for investors to agitate for one so soon. The producers of “Comet” declined to comment.
But sources say that what the investors will discover is that the running cost of the show — put at about $545,000 in offering papers — soared to more than $700,000. |
