Italian term or phrase: repliche
Però devo dire che è stato anche il punto di svolta di una rinascita, e decidemmo allora di prendere il “Gran Teatro” e abbiamo incassato in quarantasette repliche quello che incassava il Brancaccio in una stagione.

This is something to do with the theatre. What could they mean by incassate ...repliche? Collected replies? Or something else

[repeat] performances
Explanation:
Normal, everyday expression for any kind of spectacle that is repeated. Personally I'd just say "performances" without the "repeat"
