| So I do think in this case, the reviews very much killed it. Even before the Omicron wave hit maximum force, LCT had dropped the TodayTix fees on the already discounted $30 back row of the loge tickets... which I probably would have bought if they'd done that before the reviews came out, but once we have multiple critics writing that the first act was not great and the second act was much worse... no, not even the faintly positive word of mouth on this board could convince me to pay $30. In terms of closing earlier than planned, Covid might have made it more easier for them to justify the choice - depressed ticket sales, more expensive protocols - and the fact that it's running until the 16th suggests to me that the company was probably initially contracted through then, with the additional three weeks being the built-in extension that was simply sold in advance rather than once there was "audience demand"... which in this case might have been unwise. Did "Women on the Verge" (which I love the recording of) close early? Or did they just not play the announced extension? |
