penelopesimpson Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Am I seeing things or has the price of R&J tickets been reduced? I paid £127 for my Stalls Circle seat and see that they are now on sale for £115. Can anyone help?
aileen Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Is the lower price for a matinee performance? Matinee performances can be cheaper. 1
penelopesimpson Posted September 30, 2015 Author Posted September 30, 2015 Is the lower price for a matinee performance? Matinee performances can be cheaper. No. It's on every performance and its now £110. A trifle irritating.
Bruce Wall Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) I'm not sure ... certainly I don't know ... but are the ROH practicing 'dynamic pricing' ... where the prices go up when there is increased demand and made lower when additional spaces are left to be filled? This is now the practice in certain theatres. In the 'old days' it used to be against the law ... but not now. Times they have changed ... and I, for one, am old. Change is not always the exciting fit I used to think it to be. Edited September 30, 2015 by Bruce Wall
alison Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Top price is £127, second price bracket is £115, matinees top price £110. Are you certain you're looking at top-price tickets? What I find even more surprising is that there are tickets left for R&J. 1
bangorballetboy Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 No, there's no dynamic pricing. £127 is top price (centre, row A) and £115 is the next price band down (B-C centre, A centre sides). 1
bangorballetboy Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 What I find even more surprising is that there are tickets left for R&J. Only 92 of them across the remainder of the run, and over 50% of those (49) are for tomorrow's matinée. I'm sure they'll sell! 1
Anna C Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 No. It's on every performance and its now £110. A trifle irritating. That's probably the most expensive ticket remaining unsold. £127 is still the top price for the best seats in SC and Grand Tier but they have obviously all been sold for the date and time you're looking at. If you are seeing "x tickets available" in a price range of - say - £10-£110, then the few £110 tickets remaining are in the seating area that always costs £110, and all the £127 seats are already sold out.
