HHL People Power Disco Hour

I don’t think it goes overtime for the crew since the show itself is only 80-90 minutes.

Cool. There's nothing I want to do more on a Thursday night.

It's a cool idea. But would be a bigger draw if each dj night was after a Saturday performance.

Thursday is gay Friday. I can assure you there are plenty out and about on a Thursday (gasp!) night."



This just made me LOL. You'd be surprised the amount of people who go out on days like Sundays and Mondays

The point of doing this is not to run a disco; it is to sell tickets on a night on which that is a problem. I assume the weekend nights are selling better at this point.

PS. What is HHL?

I don't doubt that there are people out every night of the week. But late night club goers aren't going to the theatre. Their shifts at Starbucks don't end early enough.

Is the cost of this endeavor even going to be covered by the few extra tickets it sells?

SO by this absurdly rude and classist comment I take it you think that club goers are all of lower income. My sweet summer child, you could not be farther from the truth. Just look at the circuit gays, the majority of whom are in their 30s or above because that lifestyle is actually quite expensive. They are also the ones who have money to go to the theater often. You are entirely wrong about the demographics here. I saw a list of these DJs (well, all but one as apparently one date was still in negotiations with someone). And I maintain that they can absolutely draw a crowd and generate interest. Perhaps not interest from YOU but then not everything is made for you.

I think this is actually a great idea (speaking as someone who's gone 4 times and still wants to go again), which would work either for repeat attendees or for people going in smaller groups. The only thing is that right now rush (at $35 a ticket) is pretty much guaranteed even if you go to the box office in the afternoons, so for people living in the area it's not necessarily a huge incentive to buy the 4 pack.
