Well, ten years ago we spent $150 per ticket, if it's an anniversary tour, expect those to double for us. Not sure if I can afford that!
Broadway is not the same as it was when I was a kid. The seats are smaller so they can squish more people in. The bars are all there, but there is no ordering ahead of time. You grab a drink on the fly and take it to your seat. Lines for the toilets etc.
Like I said, ALL shows have intermission but this one didn't for some reason.
I like that idea of pre-ordering! They don't do that here. In fact, when we went to see Spamalot, it was a total clusterfuck. They had the bar (portable) in an awful spot and they had the souvenir stand AT the exit door and it was set up in such a way that it was near impossible to get out. Add in a security guy telling people to move along! WTF? Buy something or leave? Make up your mind.
Everything here is all about the money now. It's a shame because I've been seeing plays all my life and I get to watch the whole experience disintegrate year by year.
