I liked the "homo-esoteric" bit. I learn something new every day!
I also like the way he admits there are other factors, although he doesn't name them. I wonder if the fact that prices are a bit...uh...high has anything to do with it? I took a quick look and found out that two tickets to Wicked range from $67 to $300. Given the economy, maybe that might be a factor? I rarely go to movies because the prices are outrageous, so what do the non-rich do when confronted by prices like that? Especially when later on the show will probably be on tv or dvd?
I also liked how he points to the increase in the population of the US, but how does that matter to Broadway? From what I can tell of the site, it seems to indicate the physical Broadway, in NYC. How does an increase in, say, the middle of Texas, lead to more people who can see a Broadway show? I've never been to NY, and probably never will. Surely Teddy Beale, Super-Genius, has considered that into his Deep Thoughts?
