I suspect fees don't need to be shared, whereas ticket prices are in some cases shared with the act. I don't really have any problem with it. To the consumer it is just part of the cost of the show, and their programming is top-notch, at least for the several shows I've seen there.

that's where i was headed. In the scheme of things, that separate fee seems low on the totem pole-now if someone can explain the fees added to my Verizon bill, I'll happily pay their admission to 54 Below...

Don't get me started on the phone bill... Personally, if I ran a legit theatre, I would make it just like a cinema: advertise a final price, inclusive of everything. And why is there a convenience fee AT ALL for ordering tickets online that save the the theatre the cost of having a human process the order? Because they can pocket that money!
