The long-running hit Beautiful: The Carole King Musical has had a dynamite holiday season at the box office, returning to a gross that surpasses the million-dollar mark. In the past week, Beautiful took in $1,025,811 at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre, where the musical has been running for more than four years. Beautiful's gross has jumped beyond one million dollars for 76 weeks of its 211-week Broadway run. Audiences clearly can't get enough of the iconic song catalogue of Carole King, Gerry Goffin, Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil; we think now is the perfect time to make plans to revisit the celebrated show featuring those tunes.
