| Most likely every year, because of ticket prices rising, boxoffice records are shattered. But I get PR. That is why I like when movie stats often say what movies would be like in today's inflated prices - so Avatar, Star Wars, Black Panther, Titanic r are nothing if you look at inflation-adjusted for Sound of Music, Gone with the Wind, I think even movies like Bambi and Dumbo would blow away current animated films!

| Also, Network has onstage seating, so has more seats than Hedwig, the previous record holder. There are 25 onstage seats, which generate about $10K per performance if they are sold at $399 each. | |

| It’s down to 4% now. I suspect tv helped drop those numbers. I’m sure going to the theater has declined over the years. Isn’t it less than 10% see more than 3 shows a year. Clearly not this sites demographics. But in my office, less than half see even 1 show a year and sf gets most of the tours and we have several top notch regional theaters. | |

| I don't think it correlates in the same way. Movies were impacted by the VCR etc, as well as TV. It's a direct impact. Theatre is its own story. It's neither here nor there but that 10%/3 shows statistic is absurd. Far less than 1% see even 1 show. |

| That would be more of a survey of theater goers | |

| And not general population which probably is less than 1%, which of course would be my office mates. | |

| if that's what it is, then fine. I guess one would have to self-identify? | |

| And maybe national tours. Regional would be different survey and occasionally theaters do them but they probably are for internal use and not shared st the national level. | |

| I guess what I meant was that, if you don't let people self-ID, then you would have to use a frequency question, and if you do that, you are basically answering your own question. | |

| If the 65% statistic is true, then it's crazy to think about the decline of film audience. But, your logic makes sense. | |

| It’s in print. The 4% was from another article. | |
