Broadway Grosses: Bette Midler and Holland Taylor Say Bye to Broadway with Box Office Bump
Bette Midler and Holland Taylor’s one-woman shows may have bid their farewells to Broadway on June 30, but the fierce ladies managed to rake in slight box office bumps as the curtain fell on I’ll Eat You Last and Ann. Meanwhile, shows like Kinky Boots, Wicked, The Book of Mormon and The Lion King continued their triumphant box-office busting runs, while Matilda and Motown topped their own records at the Shubert and Lunt-Fontanne Theatres, respectively.
