The Old Phedinkus @danielstock.bsky.social · 14/05/2026I’ll admit that Broadway and those prices are unfamiliar territory for me. I think the highest I’ve ever priced a ticket was between $150-$180. And the regional nonprofits I’ve worked with usually only do $10-$20 tiered increases after the show is 70% to 80% sold. Sounds like Broadway is a lot worse 000
The Old Phedinkus @danielstock.bsky.social · 13/05/2026The most generous way we justify this is we really are trying to encourage good habits of buying tickets early and looking at Wed/Thurs night shows rather than putting everyone in the Saturday matinee. 120
The Old Phedinkus @danielstock.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Yeah, no, on Broadway it’s much more about profit maximization and loss aversion. From a regional theatre standpoint (my domain) we really NEED to get as much out of say, Christmas Carol, to subsidize the rest of the season. And as long as people will willing pay more there’s no reason not to charge 130
The Old Phedinkus @danielstock.bsky.social · 13/05/2026As someone who has run 4 box offices (Equity & Lort included) it is a very sad necessity. Reason #1 is because the inverse of dynamic pricing isn’t true: if a show is tanking it doesn’t matter how much you discount the tickets, people still aren’t buying them. 120
