| This past season was unusual in that there were two smash hits -- Hello Dolly with Bette Midler and Dear Evan Hansen -- that, even before the Tonys, were essentially sold out for the next six months. So they have a strong premium sale/re-sale market that is sucking a lot of the dollars out of the marketplace. Add in Come from Away, which isn't an impossible ticket like the other two but still sold out every week, and all the dollars going to Hamilton, and there aren't a lot of dollars left for the tourist to see a second show. |
