Yeah the producers must have been on crack when they set these prices. I'd expect they'll want to suck every dollar they can from the tween fangurlcore base (on Mommy and Daddy's credit card), and then the prices will eventually become more reasonable"
I want some of their crack, then, as this seems to be genuinely selling. I assumed this would completely crash and burn as it did the last time, but their base seems to be turning out. I can't recall a show at NWS selling this well ahead of time. I still don't think this will thrive for long, but itsprovingmy assumptions wrong so far."
We also don't know if they are just releasing tickets in small blocks spread out to create the illusion of high demand. The analytics people can be genius in how they manage the dynamics of pricing.
Yes, you can't take what you see for availability on Telecharge and assume those are sold seats. Most are still probably being held back from sale.

CAMERON LOYAL!!!!
Blessed be.
Kerry!!! This may be short lived or horrible or whatever other choice words people want to throw in the orbit of this project but what fantastic casting. Excited to turn off my brain and let this show wash over me.
That's an incredibly small, thankless role for Kerry Butler.
And yet, she’ll still get to sing more in this than she did in MEAN GIRLS.
And she took the role so maybe it isn't small and thankless to her. JMO

It's a job and she's a working actor.

Clearly Kerry loves contemporary pop musical theater-always has, look at her resume-and this is right up her alley. She'll be great, and a whole new group of young fans will be introduced to her because of this.
