Fandango, the nation's largest movie ticketing service, has partnered with TicketsNow.com to begin selling Broadway tickets.
So, is this good news for Broadway? Well, not exactly. We ran a search for a Wednesday night for a show that is currently only selling at about 60% capacity and yielded ticket prices of approximately $220 per ticket for an orchestra seat.
So, that would be about $900 for a family of four to come see the show. This has to be hurting Broadway as a whole as these prices simply push us off of a consumers list of affordable entertainment options.
