Book of Mormon tickets break Broadway records

"Hours after The Book of Mormon walked off with nine Tony Awards including best musical, Broadway's biggest new hit set a record with a top ticket price of $487.25."

"In the wake of its Tony juggernaut on Sunday, virtually all available seats for the rest of the year were sold, according to a check of Telecharge. That suggests an advance sale of at least $30 million."

"Prices are much higher in the so-called secondary market—“scalpers” in another era. On Ebay Inc.'s StubHub, a pair of orchestra seats for Saturday night is going for $1,832.75"

good God. :/ I'm all for buying tickets to something I really really want to see but that just SUCKS. I mean, good for them, sucks for us!

Now I'm even more grateful I saw a preview show. I keep thinking I wish I would have waited until after previews but screw that! Preview tickets from now on baby!!!

ps- I just noticed, Crap: Stage. Yay!!! And NICE header!!!
