‘Producers’ breaks record
- Share via
“The Producers” broke its own Broadway box-office record the day tickets went on sale for the return of Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick. And in half the time.
Sales on Sunday totaled $3.6 million for a 12-hour period -- the highest one-day take in Broadway history, John Barlow, a spokesman for the show, said Monday.
The musical -- based on Mel Brooks’ 1968 movie of the same name -- also set the previous one-day record for Broadway sales, scoring more than $3 million the day after it opened in April 2001.
That figure was for a 24-hour period.
