As Beautiful—The Carole King Musical prepares to play its final month at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre, the musical about the beloved Grammy winner played to 96.95 percent capacity for the week ending September 22. The production, which currently stars Sarah Bockel in the title role, took in over $800,000 at the box office, nearly 82 percent of its gross potential.
The Tony-nominated musical will play its final performance October 27. (Slava’s Snowshow will follow Beautiful into the Sondheim.)
