Posted: 8/15/05 at 10:46pmWeekly grosses just came out, and does anyone else think that an average ticket price of $90.83 for Wicked is a little outrageous for a Broadway musical? I canb't believe that's the AVERAGE price. I guess there are a lot of tweens out there with rich parents.

Posted: 8/15/05 at 10:51pmHaha. Go back and read that thread. I think it's funny that you can convince some people that a woman's immense breath in is actually a monkey screaming. Maybe she needs to work on her breathing...

Posted: 8/16/05 at 10:03amDon't forget that it also includes the cost of the VIP tickets, which can cost up to $300.00. We can all thank "The Producers" for this new trend on Broadway.

Posted: 8/16/05 at 4:28pmThat is SAD to charge that much for 2 1/2 hours.

Posted: 8/16/05 at 5:56pmI honestly think it was worth it. We paid over 100.00 to see Wicked and it was worth every minute of it...and I would pay that price again.

Posted: 8/16/05 at 5:59pmSome guy was selling tickets outside the theatre on Cheno's last week, for like $350 or something. And one teen girl asked her mom, and her mom gave her the money!

Posted: 8/16/05 at 6:01pmI've paid full price two of the three times I've seen the show. Now I'm a big fan of the $55 "partial view" seats.

Agreed. I love being on the right for partial view. The first time I sat in partial view, my friends and I could see Megan Hilty running around backstage like a maniac before the show began. We figured she was getting the energy up or frantically looking for her wand. Oh, and we could hear her doing a few vocal warm-ups.

Posted: 8/16/05 at 6:29pmOh. thats not bad consitering I paid 125 bucks for row M in the EVita Tour.. and I'd rather see Wicked then the Evita tour..
#16re: Wicked $90.83 average ticket price
Posted: 8/16/05 at 6:31pmYeah, I heard JLT warming up when I was 5th row partial view. I could see backstage, but tried not to - it was my first time. So I wanted to be completely suprised.
