Show Score - question about critic ratings#1
Posted: 4/21/19 at 5:05pm
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.
