What 1,500 means on a settlement sheet
Illustrative face-value gross at three ticket prices and three sell-through levels. Real nets land lower: comps consume capacity without revenue, and per-ticket fees sit between face value and what the show keeps.
| Sell-through | $30 ticket | $45 ticket | $65 ticket |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100% (1,500 tickets) | $45,000 | $67,500 | $97,500 |
| 85% (1,275 tickets) | $38,250 | $57,375 | $82,875 |
| 70% (1,050 tickets) | $31,500 | $47,250 | $68,250 |
Whether a show pencils at these numbers depends on the guarantee and cost base, not the gross — break-even is the number that decides.
