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

: Yes, not "repeat" here. http://www.wordreference.com/iten/replica And incassare means to make, as in box-office receipts.

: No, not for just "any kind". Not for one that is a "rinascita" (revival).

I'm guessing the "rinascita" is an improvement in their fortunes, perhaps after lockdown.
