Given all the recent announcements of shattered Broadway box office records — which means more theatergoers are paying higher ticket prices than ever before for Broadway shows — below is a reminder that each one of the new shows — ones that opened so far this year, and the six that will be opening in the final ten days of the season — routinely offer the chance to get tickets for as little as $30. Average price around $45. Yes, this includes the ones that smashed box office records.
