Look who is bloggin’ now?
Last week I wrote a blog with my 5 Tips to Starting a Theater Blog. And lo and behold, one appeared!
Ok, truth time – this new blog didn’t have anything to do with my post, but it’s still a blog that we all should must read. Why? Well, it’s written by someone who has access to more ticketing data than anyone in the biz . . . the Shuberts themselves!
Check out the new Shubert Ticketing Blog here (with articles by The Swami himself!).
The most recent entry? “What’s the Problem with Wednesday Nights?” Or as I like to call it? Why does Wednesday night (the worst performance of the week when it comes to grosses) suck so bad? Is it because it’s “hump day”? Is it because there’s a matinee for most shows that day? Is it because Survivor is on?
Read the blog to find out.And a big thank you to the Shuberts for opening up their data and sharing their info with us.
Now, let’s just hope they read my tips and have picked that publishing schedule . . . because I can’t wait to see what they come out with next.
