They Love the Nightlife: Audiences Flock to ‘Priscilla Queen of the Desert’
By PATRICK HEALYIn its first full week of performances since opening on Broadway to generally good reviews, the new musical “Priscilla Queen of the Desert” notched a 30 percent increase in ticket sales last week and the revival of “Arcadia” was up 20 percent compared to its box-office grosses the prior week, according to data released on Monday by the Broadway League.
Most other Broadway musicals and plays had down sales last week, after students and families returned home from spring vacations in New York.
Of those shows making gains, “Priscilla” had by far the biggest week-to-week jump, with a total gross of $962,163.
