  QUICK POLL
With Broadway ticket prices what they are does it make any difference to you if a show with a small cast, a few musicians and modest production values charges about the same as a big production with a full orchestra and an elaborate design? 2 comments
Yes, I want to see where my money was spent.
Yes, unless it's a show that obviously doesn't require more elaborate production values.
No, if the material's great and the performances are wonderful I feel I've gotten my money's worth.
