Ragtime was a sell-out, Waiting For Godot approached the $2 million mark and Hamilton once again broke the $3 million mark in an overall hold-steady week on Broadway .
In total, the 27 Broadway shows grossed $31,428,040 for the week ending October 5 (which included the Yom Kippur holiday), just 2% more than the previous week (but 19% over last year at this time). Attendance was 234,508 , virtually dead even with the previous week and year-over-year.
The week’s Top 5 earners were Hamilton ($3,743,602) , still going strong with the return of original cast member Leslie Odom, Jr.; Wicked ($2,054,921) , continuing its winning streak with the upcoming release of the Wicked: For Good movie; The Lion King ($1,936,448) ; Waiting For Godot starring Keanu Reeves
