Broadway took $36,753,750 across 35 productions in the week ending November 8, 2026, according to the Broadway League: $7,181,466 more than the Halloween week before it, but still 9.7 percent short of the same week last season, when 34 shows grossed $40,693,448.
The recovery from Halloween was close to universal. Of the 33 productions that played both weeks, 31 took more money, and attendance rose 14.9 percent to 289,254 as the average paid per seat climbed back from about $117 to about $127. Set against the week ending November 9, 2025, admissions were down 5.3 percent on 305,502, so the year-on-year gap splits roughly evenly between fewer seats sold and a lower average ticket, which a year ago stood at about $133.
Hamilton took back the top of the list, grossing $2,697,304 at the Richard Rodgers Theatre to full houses, $379,829 more than it managed the week before.
The biggest single jump belonged to the Much Ado About Nothing revival at the Winter Garden Theatre. After one preview the previous week, it played eight and took $2,340,819 from 12,050 people at 100 percent of capacity, which was enough for third place on the week's grosses while still in previews.
Here There Are Blueberries appears in the League's figures for the first time, with seven previews at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre bringing in $669,084 from 7,078 admissions, 99 percent of capacity. Our review roundup gathers what the critics made of it.
The only two shows to take less were the two the calendar explains. The Rocky Horror Show fell from $970,053 to $699,685 at Studio 54, playing to 83 percent of capacity, and Paranormal Activity eased from $1,094,504 to $926,759 at the August Wilson Theatre: both were coming off the one week of the year built for them.
Twenty-four weeks into the 2026-27 season, Broadway has grossed $762,764,459 and admitted 6,218,423 people across 744 playing weeks. That is 8.1 percent behind the $830,150,137 taken at the same point last season, while attendance is only 3.3 percent down on 6,429,968 and playing weeks 1.1 percent down on 752, so the season's shortfall is more about what each seat earns than how many are filled.
All figures are from the weekly grosses published by the Broadway League.
