All Shook Up ticket price increase AGAIN

Posted: 8/8/05 at 11:56pm

Went by All Shook Up today, and now the entire balcony is $39.00. No more $19.55 tickets! I'm so sad, I was loving that deal and now I can't afford to see the show once a week anymore!!!

I'm never seeing the show again but that really sucks for the show's fans. So go see another show every 2 weeks.

Betty, I have seen ASU twice this week, Mamma Mia, Hairspray, Spelling Bee, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, and Avenue Q. Don't worry, I support all the shows! But I still love my ASU!!!

Well, that just stinks! I was hoping to see it again this week, and now I'm not so sure.

I wonder if this is only because it is summer and ASU is a hot summer show for tourists. When I was there two weeks ago, the $39.00 price was a temporary piece of paper pasted over the $19.55 price. If it is not just for the summer heavy tourist season, that's bad, because there are no rush seats for this show. That means their cheapest seat now costs more than student rush or SRO for other shows.

Early in the run, when I questioned whether or not there would be a rush policy, the lady at the box office said that the balcony seats at $19.55 were in place instead.

Considering that we ASU fans have been posting all this good stuff about the show, it's kind of ironic that the producers are going to price most of us out of being able to see this show more often. I know I have been supporting it by seeing it multiple times already. Guess I'll have to rethink my theatre $$ a little more.

I think now the prices are almost the same as they were when AIDA was running there. Maybe now they'll consider implementing rush like AIDA had, as well.

If they bring in the $25 front row student rush seats like they had for Aida, I will be there every day. That would be great!

But when I asked at the box office, they said this $39 was a permanent thing (so not just summer) and no, they won't have student rush, standing room, partial view discounts, or anything like that.

Thenardier, you and I can alternate every other day of who goes down to get the pair of tickets for student rush and then we can both go to the show every night!! Hooray!!
But I asked about student rush and the box office guy said they weren't going to have it. I hope they change their minds!!

I didn't even realize they still have the $19.55 tix. I thought that was just a preview promo type of thing. Though, I also didn't realize they didn't have any student tix either. That's kind of lame. Maybe they'll incorporate something in the fall, when school starts up again??

LOL, yeah, we both know how well that works!!

I'll just have to use my connections and see if I can watch the show for free from the wings....

I think Luvtheemcee is correct. This puts 'All Shook Up' in line with most Broadway shows. But grateful that you got to see 'All Shook Up' so many times for $19.55. The sad economic truth is that Broadway shows can't make any money that way; they need to sell many more full-price seats. If you look at the grosses of 'All Shook Up,' their average ticket price has gone UP since they dropped the $19.55 balcony. The tradeoff, though, is that they've taken a little dip in their attendance. I can understand the show's hesistancy in offering rush; it dilutes the incentive to buy tickets thru TKTS or discount codes, not to mention full-price seats. And theaters seldom offer standing room, unless they're selling out. Since the huge Palace has 1,700 seats, that's unlikely. With any luck, this recent press push (i.e., A&E, Good Morning America) will be a shot in the arm.

I agree, much better to have $25 for a student seat (or $19.55 for those balcony seats) than $0 for an empty seat. I hope they realize that soon and give us back the opportunity to see the show without spending a ton!

I can kind of see them getting rid of the whole balcony at $20 thing. That's actually kind of crazy, BUT I also don't think it's right not to offer any form of $20-ish tix...be it the last row or two of the balcony, rush, a lotto, SRO, etc. Chances are, folks like Liotte and Thenardier have put in a lot more money into the show w/ the cheap seats than they would have w/o any "dirt cheap" option. They go regularly, bring new people sometimes (I'm guessing)...While $20 is super cheap for tix that you can buy in advance, I also think something can be said of having slightly lowered ticket prices w/ a fuller house. I was SHOCKED to see that Sweet Charity's full priced orchestra tix were $112!!! Geez, is it really any shock that they're running in the 60s? I could rant on and on about this, but I'll spare you. re: All Shook Up ticket price increase AGAIN

I agree Mabel.

And I have brought over 100 people to see All Shook Up with me when I go (spread out throughout the 16 times).

We should make a petition to have student rush.
