To the Editor:
Congratulations to another fantastic Tryon Little Theater Youth Production, “Pippin.” I’ve heard that it was ‘fantastic’ and a “must see.” Unfortunately, we did not go to see it, due to the cost of the tickets.
For a family with four children (up to the age of 18) and two adults, it would have cost them $80 to go see the play… for a children’s production.
In these tough economic times, TLT should have really thought about their ticket prices. The people in the area that I spoke with were not going to see the play due to the cost of the tickets ($20 for adults, $10 for students). Wouldn’t the TLT rather have sold out each performance with lower ticket prices than have empty seats throughout the theater?
That’s just my opinion.
