NEW YORK -- Road grosses declined week to week in Week 37 (Feb. 6-12), by .80% to a $9,847,515.
This is in part was due to the loss of "Little Shop of Horrors," which is on a six-week hiatus. Showing improvement was the East Lansing, Mich., perf of "The Lion King," which exceeded its gross potential by $74.
