  1. Brian has reached the stage where is completely and utterly out of fucks to give. I’m into it.

  2. Do they just call this man once a week and see what he rambles about?

  3. it’s clearly for a certain sector of the world that can afford it…

  4. The Picture of Dorian Gray with Sarah Snook is a 1000x better show

  5. I understand the price point, it’s high demand and it’s 2 huge names to pay. I also hate that so much if this world is inaccessible to people because of money.

  6. King who stood up for Palestine so I love him regardless but it doesn’t hurt that his stances are always right.

  7. Somebody’s got to pay for that $100,000 dressing room redecoration. 

  8. The Picture of Dorian Gray with Sarah Snook tickets are almost as bad too, circa $800

  9. I’m so sick of seeing Marine uniforms in places they shouldn’t be. Shakespeare? Jarhead was great but ffs leave the uniforms alone. They’re not even wearing them right.

  10. That’s outrageous. How the fuck did it come to this?

  11. It’s an understandable number to me. You get what you pay for and you’re getting Denzel Washington doing Shakespeare on Broadway. People will turn around and pay $600 for upper level terrible seats to see the Lakers lose because of LeBron and Luka or even worse, pay $3000 to see Beyoncé or Taylor Swift.

  12. Great actor. I enjoyed his interview with Marc Maron from a while back.

  13. Did he talk at the prices he paid for Taylor Swift?

  14. In 2012 I paid 30 bucks to see Philip Seymour Hoffman and Andrew Garfield in Death of a Salesman.

    Love Denzel and Jake but $1,000?

  15. yeah, that’s stupid

    I don’t care how good they are

    even if I were a billionaire , I wouldn’t blow $1000 on a show

  16. # Man, you’re getting Denzel and Jake. If I could pay to see them, why not . Something like that gonna be high.

    # And Brian might give zero fucks, but Denzel does as well. His response, if asked about Brian comments, could turn into a war of words.

  17. I wish Americans would stop blindly paying top dollar for everything they come across. It sends the wrong message and teaches nothing. It’d be powerful to see people start protesting with their wallets instead

  18. I wish no one would pay that price and all the seats would be empty. That’s the only way things will change.

  19. Seeing as Denzel announced his retirement last year it makes sense the tickets are going for crazy prices.

  20. It’s an opportunity for the wealthy to look in amazement at the poor and say, “What, you don’t attend the theatre? No wonder you’re such low-class”.

  21. brian is a genius and should get free tix… i would pay 1k to see him or denzel act

  22. Meanwhile, we’d probably pay it to watch Brian Cox play King Lear

  23. It’s what London has over NY, in terms of theatre prices, that’s for sure.

  24. What’s the typical price? Idk anything about Broadway but always assumed it was expensive 

  25. Millionaires making the people that made them rich pay even more to make them even richer. I hope they give back to the community’s that made them what they are
