OTHELLO ADVANCE

Posted: 2/27/25 at 10:23pm

Hearing whispers that Othello might just be the biggest thing on Broadway right now—word is their advance is a record-breaking $28M, making it the highest across all shows. Tickets are definitely pricey, but the digital lottery is the way to go if you want a shot at getting in.

Seems to me, when I saw the show it is worth the price. Curious if the grosses will reflect the same

If the advance is $28M for a 15 week engagement, then that's roughly $1.86 million per week, which is great for a play! I'd say the grosses will be fine as long as the 2 stars above-the-title don't have significant absences that entitles the patrons for a refund.

Yes it seems like the only affordable way to see the show is via the lottery. However, if the show gets mixed-negative reviews or word-of-mouth, I can see the secondary market prices decrease to more affordable prices.

If it's true that the show was capitalized only around $8.5 mil, this is a huge coup for all involved.
