Aren't The HEDWIG Tix Outrageously Expensive?

Posted by: enoch10 08:37 pm EDT 03/16/14

as i've stated plenty of times if i have to pay full price for a ticket i almost always go day of show and try to score premium seats for regular orchestra prices. or i hope to get comped or i go with a group.

i just looked at the availability of seats for HEDWIG. all i'm seeing are 300 dollar seats. almost all of the orchestra is premium. so i checked for a date in may. same thing. it occurs to me that i was only looking for the 10:00 show on a saturday and maybe those are priced outrageously high because ... uhhh... anyway, is it usually this bad? most of the orchestra priced at premium? and they aren't holding seats either. almost the entire orchestra is available.

now, don't get me wrong i love HEDWIG, but it's a punk rock show not THE PRODUCERS. are they charging these prices based on NPH's name alone? are the engagement dates that firm - as in no extension?

i don't get it.

it's also worth noting that if i know they aren't holding back seats because almost the entire orchestra was available that means almost the entire orchestra was available as in those seats haven't been sold.

or have things just gotten this out of hand and i don't know it because i don't usually buy advance tickets?
