Is Broadway in a Winter 2008 slump? I just read an article that said in January 2008 shows were playing to half full theatres. It further paints a picture that Broadway business is not as good as it is. I hardly see it that way and I have been in the business of selling Broadway tickets for over 31 years now.
If you go to our web site http://www.applause-tickets.com/ you will see people on the front. These nice folks are busy non-stop from 8am till about 8 at night. We are experiencing more business than the usual January "off peak" time that I think that article I read was trying to convey. Sure Broadway business is slower now, especially after our tourist trade has gone home after the Christmas holidays. But instead of focusing on the "gloom and doom" of a few slower than usual weeks on Broadway, I think the shows should get out there and market more than ever. There are excellent ticket deals now that Applause has, simply go to http://www.applause-tickets.com/insider-deals.asp which will help Broadway shows get busier.
The fact is that there are really good seats to terrific shows playing on Broadway right now. See for yourselves www.applause-tickets.com/broadway.asp . There are nearly 30 shows playing in the "off peak" season. If things were that bad, producers wouldn't produce shows during this time.
In a matter of a few short weeks all of Broadway will be booming again as the Easter Vacation season will be upon us. Applause is seeing its phone lines busier than ever. Sure most people want to see the top 5 shows playing like Wicked www.applause-tickets.com/wicked.asp , Jersey Boys www.applause-tickets.com/jersey-boys.asp , The Lion King www.applause-tickets.com/the-lion-king.asp , The Little Mermaid www.applause-tickets.com/little-mermaid.asp and Mary Poppins www.applause-tickets.com/mary-poppins.asp .
If you want these shows, you may want to contact Applause by phone at 212-307-7050 or 1-800-451-9930. Their service is second to no one else's. Their people are friendly and know everything about getting you the best seats for the shows you really want to see, at the best prices of course.
I don't see this time of year as being a slump for Broadway. What I see is that this may be the "perfect time" to get some great seats for great theatre at "better than usual" Broadway prices.
Call Applause now at 212-307-7050 or 1-800-451-9930 whenever you need tickets for Broadway Theatre. They are the Broadway Experts you can trust all the time.
