Broadway's Great White Way has 41 active theatres and as many Broadway shows can be performing at any one time. The Broadway show list is often in flux as new shows are opening and end-of-run shows are closing all the time.

Typically, Broadway shows do not last more than 3 months on the boards. A few popular Broadway shows can stick around for many few years, as long as the show continues to sell Broadway tickets. The initial investment cost of putting on a Broadway show is quite high, so Broadway show producers use a formula on Broadway tickets pricing. They often set their Broadway ticket prices high and then discount the show tickets in due corse to generate some momentum down the line. This is especially true for a show when its Broadway ticket sales starts to flag - and this is where we come in.

Bringing All Walks of Life to Broadway Shows

The goal for Broadway shows is to bring in as many people as possible to see a show, while still making the show profitable.  Show producers aim to achieve both goals without damaging the brand of the show (by giving away really cheap or free Broadway tickets).

Some popular Broadway shows will sell discount tickets even if they do not need to. The Broadway industry intends to bring theatre into everyone’s lives. If the regular ticket prices become too high for the masses to afford, then show producers will often provide some sort of discount ticket options.

The vast majority of Broadway shows do not make a profit and they ultimately lose money for the show investors. On the flipside, the very top Broadway shows can make a small fortune from ticket sales. This is increased exponentially when the show goes on a tour following a successful Broadway run.
