The million dollar streak hasn’t finished with “Wicked” just yet – though they broke the record just a few weeks ago for garnering the most gross in a week’s time on Broadway, the national tour is doing just as well as it travels through the States this year, as “Wicked” time in Cleveland equally pulled out all the stops. More than 93,000 Ohioans paid nearly $7 million to see the Broadway show during its four week run, reports Cleveland.com, the third time this magical show had visited this northern Ohio city. In total, Cleveland has earned the musical that is adapted from Gregory Maguire’s best selling novel $19.3 million in ticket sales for New York producers, a feat of sorts in this economic state. The first time the Wicked Witches of Oz flew through the stages in Cleveland was in 2006, followed by another appearance in 2008 and again during the past four weeks in 2009, having left on Sunday. The Playhouse Square earned just as much business, as did the surrounding neighborhoods, according to a Clevevland State University study, which additionally stated that local works and businessess ancillary to the theater were earning just as much as “Wicked” producers.

As for the woman who was thrown out last week? Kathleen Holmes, 50, was released from jail on a $2,500 bond on charge of felony assault after having a fit during the performance.
