Musical ‘Billy’ will cost you

Share

“Billy Elliot, The Musical” may be about a kid from the working class, but ticket prices for the upcoming Broadway run are anything but working class. The $136.50 the show is charging for an orchestra or mezzanine seat appears to be a record high for regular top-tier admission.

It wasn’t long ago that $120 for a standard top ticket to such in-demand musicals as “Young Frankenstein” or “Jersey Boys” was the shocker. “Billy Elliot,” based on the 2000 film, opens Oct. 1 at New York’s Imperial Theater.
