February Tickets for BETM Toronto Selling Well

[porschesrule]

Mirvish Productions, producers of BETM Toronto, reports that ticket sales for the first month of BETM Toronto is going well, with 19 sold out performances in February to date. Tickets are on sale through July 10, 2011 at this point.

This is good news that Toronto is selling so well. The claims of being sold out for those dates might a slight exaggeration. I was considering going the weekend of 2/19-20. I checked the website just now and there are some single seats available for those performances. Sometimes theaters will consider a certain threshold, such as 90% or 95%, to be "technically" a sell out.

Mirvish is reporting that 21 of the 32 shows in February are now sold out.

As Chris says, that could be a slight exaggeration on the producers' part as there may be single seats available for some of those shows, and it's equally obvious that they are using this to promote even more ticket sales in the future, but it is still very good news that the production in Toronto seems to be getting off on a very solid footing. Hopefully it bodes well for a long run there.

According to the tweet, new blocks of tickets are on sale through Sept. 4th. I could not find it anywhere on the mirvish site.

I would assume that if ticket sales are continuing to be good that they would stay as long as possible. That's good news for Toronto.
