Quote: "Makes you wonder if they ever once tested a full fall tour on Symphony how much sold out they'd be."
For various reasons, I only went to 1 show this Spring. In past years, I've done as many as 10. The one I went to was in a 2,500 seat venue. It wasn't full. Compare to the last time I was at Red Rocks where there were about 9,000 people. It's not just CW. I went to a CT show this year; same thing. Not a full house. So, what's going to happen with the Christmas tour attendance?
It seems like a lot of shows are not sold out. I go to various Broadway type shows in my area (there are 3 decent venues within 45 minutes). None of the ones recently have been sold out. Is it the economy? Maybe. Is it the show/music? Maybe. Putting on a show, especially one that does one night stands, has to be expensive. When does it mot make sense economically?
I looked at a few of the venues, and ticket sales look slow. Granted, it is only July and people aren't making Christmas plans yet.
I'm surprised the ladies haven't re-posted the tour promo on their social media. Don't they usually do that? That could only help.
