My wife saw “The King and I” back in the ‘70s on Broadway, with Yul Brynner and Constance Towers. She said that even back then that ticket prices were reasonable: even as a college student on vacation, she could afford to see it.
$17$, and near the stage.

I think I kept the program of “The King and I” seen in the late ‘70’s in Hollywood and that would probably have the ticket stub (price) attached but right now I can’t get to it - bottom shelf of a cabinet with all other programs I saved over the years. AGE prevents me from getting to that bottom shelf...Also saw “My Fair Lady” in the same theater - wanted to go back to see “Camelot” but didn’t make that one. Seeing any of those shows on Broadway would have been the thrill of a lifetime!!!!

Closest I’ve ever been to any stage was a show of Andre’ Rieu at Universal City also years ago - front row seat. I was in 7th Heaven. My husband and I sat next to a lady who said she went to every place he performed in US cities..
Now that’s a real fan or fanatic!!!
