Smash-hit musical Wicked rang in the New Year with a new Broadway record - by becoming the first production to break US$2.1 million in weekly ticket sales.
Just a week after the spectacular broke its own Thanksgiving weekend gross record, it did it again for the week ending 3 January.
Last week was the third time in just six weeks the Broadway hit grossed over US$2 million for one week of performances.
Additionally, the show's three other North American productions broke house records in San Francisco, Providence and Schenectady last week, bringing the musical's one-week North American box office gross to a whopping US$7 million.
