Welcome to this week's edition of our new WEEKLY GROSSES ANALYSIS, part of our new Industry Insights section that will feature insider industry information, commentary and insights!

Read on for all the weekly grosses statistics for the movers and shakers from the latest grosses, 4/5/2015.

One to Watch: Of note, GIGI grossed a healthy $585,448 over seven performances for the week ending 4/5/15, which also included 3 critic's performances (that normally cause a drop due to the # of comps). The show still managed to rise more than $100,000 over the previous week.
