‘Kinky Boots’ Tops $1 Million, But ‘Breakfast’ Goes Cold

Variety: It was good news and bad news on Broadway last week, with the upbeat headline centered on “Kinky Boots,” which for the first time joined fellow spring openers “Lucky Guy” and “Cinderella” in the millionaires’ club. On the bad news front, spring break was clearly over, with drops of varying sizes at the majority of titles on the boards including “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” which posted a closing notice for April 21 after pulling in just $300,346 for the seven days.

This does not surprise me, first I heard that kinky Boots was a really good, and honestly, Breakfast at Tiffany's has also been done so many times over, I do believe that it has had a hard time attracting an audience. The show needs to be revamped in some way to garner attention from the public. Kinky Boots is New to Broadway and has the big names of Harvey Firestein and Cindy Lauper (i know I just butchered both of those names) behind it.
