What are the “careful prices” of the theater on Corrientes Street like?

While Carlos Rottemberg decided to freeze prices at a cap of $15,000 for tickets to its theaters until the end of March, the rest of the theater owners took different paths. For example, the La Plaza group, which brings together that complex and the Metropolitan, maintained that it does not work on a single price for theater tickets but rather on multiple price ranges to offer access options according to the different shows.

On the side of El Picadero, Sebastian Blutrachmaintained that all his shows are below $15,000 except for Marilu Marini which has international costs and a limited season that ends on March 10. Your entrance fee reaches $17,000.

The truth is that the average price at the theater is around $15,000 or less but due to bank or 2X1 promotions. The billboard on Diagonal Norte and 9 de Julio, Ticket Buenos Aires, continues to be the best option to get theater tickets at low prices. But if you don’t resort to this and go with the cash to the theater window, there may be options starting at $8,000 (“The Outbreak” in Maipo, which because it is a sole proprietorship Roberto Peloni has a lower cost than works with more actors) to the $22,000 of a musical like “Tootsie” with Nico Vaquez.

Ariel Stolier of La Plaza explained to Ambit: “Price is, of course, a fundamental variable, but it is not the only one. In the same way that in our view, ticket purchasing behaviors are not uniform. We currently have shows on the bill where a large quantity has a maximum price of $13,000. And others with maximum list prices greater than the friendly prices of $15,000.”

In the cases of La Plaza and the Metropolitan there are several shows with tickets under $15,000 such as “I Want It Now”, “Oil”, “Wasabi”, “Macbeth Room”, “Tarascones”, “The Funeral of the Objects”, Noelia Pace, “The Great Renunciation”, Fabregas Sanjiao’s stand-up, “I don’t I want to do stand up”, “Malena Guinzburg in Dear Diary”, Fede Cyrulnik, “Othelo”, “Salvajada”, “Loperman”, “Las Cautivas”, “El Cuarto de Verónica” and “The potato”, among others.

It is worth noting that several of these are shows that were born in independent or official theater and were taken over by the “Off at the Met” initiative that emerged several years ago. While they return in March “The Hunter and the Good Nazi” who had successful seasons in El Tinglado and “The disgrace” in April, which after its good attendance for several years, is restored again.

The works that exceed $15,000 in La Plaza are “Let’s vote”, with eight actors on stage (Agustina Cherri, Juan Gil Navarro and Virginia Lake among others) “My mother, my girlfriend and I”, Allowed”, “Radojka” (Patricia Palmer and Marcela Koosterboer), “Sinverguenzas” with six actors on stage (Juan Palomino, Benjamin Alfonso y Carna, among others), and the next releases in April with “Reverse”, with Carla Peterson, “In Other Words,” with Gimena Accardi, “Bossi Live” and “Better not say it,” with Imanol Arias and Mercedes Morán.

As it is read, when there are casts with leading figures or works that have proven to be successful for years such as “My mother…”, the price rises to cover the artists’ cachet. For example, the show Roberto Moldavsky It costs $17,000 and The Bonobos They start from $12,500 to $16,000.

In the more than 25 works on Corrientes Street (La Plaza and Met cases) where not only the current maximum price of the stalls is less than $15,000, due to the promotions the price is significantly lower. In the 10 works where the price exceeds $15,000, with low promotions, but of course, not all the public has access to bank cards.
