Show Score - question about critic ratings

I understand Show Score to be a sort of Rotten Tomatoes for theater. Online users can write their own reviews and give shows a rating out of 100. How do they calculate the numerical scores from critics? I feel like I've read a few reviews linked on Show Score and I wouldn't necessarily agree with the numerical rating that's been assigned.

Just wondering. Thanks.

From my understanding, I think they just have a team that reads reviews and assigns a score to them, so it's relatively subjective.
