Projection is a damped trend adjusted for season + holidays; runway is a straight-line read of the recent capacity decline, not a closing prediction. Planning input only.

How much this show leans on the half-price booth — and where the soft houses are. Built from our own TKTS board history, fused with the weekly grosses.

• This show rarely needs the TKTS booth — about 3% of its performances showed up discounted over the last 26 weeks.
• Typical cut: 50% off, with booth tickets running $50–$184.
• Sat performances lean hardest on the booth (on the board 4× at ~50% off) — the spot to paper, run a targeted promo, or consider going dark on a light week.
• Low booth reliance is a strength — there's room to protect full price rather than discount.

"Board presence" = the share of this show's performances (from the grosses) that appeared discounted at TKTS over the last 26 weeks. Discounting is a demand signal, not the whole picture.
