“It is accepted wisdom that young folks don’t go to theater much… and one presumed reason for their reluctance is the price of entry. Still, hard evidence pointing to price as a serious barrier — as opposed to, say, a resounding lack of interest — has been hard to come by, because pricing trends go only in one direction.”
“We were in this vicious cycle where costs kept going up, so prices had to keep going up,” he said in a phone interview. “And I began to believe we were at a point where we were shutting out audiences, so that theater was gradually becoming an elitist pastime. I wanted to figure out if you could get audiences back if the economic piece of the puzzle was no longer a factor.
