Playbill: Broadway's Job capped off its run with its highest-ever gross last week, bringing in $363,992.25 at an average ticket price of $85 and filling more than 90% of seats at the Helen Hayes Theater. The two-hander, along with recently opened Sunset Blvd and newcomer Tammy Faye saw the biggest increases at the box office last week.

it is wonderful to once hear about Theatre doing well. I know that it's still mentioned a small decrease in most to sales, but it is still lovely to hear about the shows that are doing well. Especially that holidays help sell tickets. Something that I think is really interesting is the $1 million club and the 90s club, two things I would not have imagined ever looking at collectively. And it makes me wonder what types of criteria gets a show into these lists. If there are two certain trends that help a show some more tickets, or last longer. I also find it interesting, which shows make it into both lists. In this collection, Hamilton, MJ, the outsiders, Aladdin, Mary, wicked, The Lion King, so many of the million dollar club shows are also in the 90s club. It's easier to actually list what isn't. The great Gatsby and Cabaret are the two shows that seem to have made a lot of money, but are no longer in the 90s club. So that to me begs the question, how were they making so much money if they aren't in the 90s club?
