Most shows have generally held up very well this week. The majority of the shows aimed at children saw a drop in business by 5-10%, but since last week was the week preceeding Easter, this isn't too much cause for concern. The real question is whether they will be able to maintain this business next week, once all the children have gone back to school. This is the time where tourist numbers to New York rise though, so maybe audience numbers for most Broadway shows will be maintained. 9-5 is the one of the new shows in town, and was completely sold out during its first week of previews. Plays are also doing quite well at the minute, but last years big hit - August: Osage County is showing signs of fatigue, with less that 50% of its seats sold.
