How Do You Pick?

  4-10-12

We recently added the 75th event to our What's On calendar. There are so many exciting events happening soon in Hong Kong. How am I as an audience member ever going to pick what to see? How do you pick?

  • Price?
  • Company?
  • Reputation of performers or script?
  • You know somebody in the show?
  • Reviews?
  • Preview press?
  • Convenience of location?

We asked this question in a survey a few months ago, and got some mixed answers. The most common answer seemed to be price. So, I'm asking the big question, readers. How much is too much for a ticket price? I know we're all on budgets and we have to draw a line somewhere so leave a comment below about your breaking point on ticket prices for shows.

    It's all about the length of the show plus the price tag for me. If a show is only one hour long I'm going to expect to pay less. I'll pay more if a show is longer than 2 hours or in festival format or if it has high production value. Because I have four kids at home I have to be very picky about what shows I take my family to. Buying 6 tickets for all of us is a serious investment.

    As a teacher I'll pick shows that do group discount bookings when picking a show for work. Not just 10%. I want a REAL discount for my kid's parents. I loved when I took the kid's to see Merchant a few years ago and the tickets were 20 dollars for each kid. That was a crackin deal.
