After a run there through Dec. 19, it moves to the Huntington Theatre Company in Boston. U2'S `JOSHUA TREE' album is listed for the first time this week on Billboard's inspirational records chart at No. 36. For 34 weeks now the album has been among the top 10 on the magazine's pop chart. The inspirational chart is based on sales at Christian record and book stores.
