I don't know the specifics of Hedwig's business model, but this sounds about right based on similar shows. They've got a fairly well-known title, a star coming off a successful sitcom who hasn't been on stage in 10 years, a relatively small house and a limited run with 7 performances a week. If word of mouth is strong and/or if the reviews are good, those tickets could very well be sold for $300. From the producers' perspective, it might make more sense for now to wait and see if they can get that $300. If not, there will probably be people willing to pay $150 closer to the performance.
