The Highest Grossing Musicals on Broadway

4. Mamma Mia!

Broadway Gross: $588.79 million

Before Meryl Streep took on the task of acting in the film adaptation of Mamma Mia!, the musical was already well on its way to becoming one of the highest grossing Broadway productions. Accompanied by the poppy tunes of ABBA, a young woman commences the search for her unknown father in order to invite him to her wedding, only to find out that his identity is rather difficult to decipher.
