Green Day Musical Ticket Sales Plummet

Revenue slumps after frontman Billy Joe Armstrong leaves the show

Published 9th Mar 2011

According to Billboard, in the week after Armstrong left the show ticket sales for that week fell from grossing around $1.3 million (£805,000) to $395,000 (£245,000).

Reports suggest that a drop-off rate that steep would usually lead to the closing of a Broadway musical.

Armstrong recently revealed that he wants to create another musical with the director of the American Idiot Broadway production, Michael Mayer.
