Martin Scorsese’s “The Irishman” has turned into the hottest show on Broadway.
Screening at Broadway’s Belasco Theater, the month-long screening is such an event that tickets are being scalped on StubHub for hundreds of dollars.
Tickets for the showings of Scorsese’s opus were regularly priced for $17.50 plus tax and service charges, but since Belasco tickets are sold out for practically its entire 3-week engagement, many movie fans have had to turn to secondary markets to nab a golden ticket.
At the high end, there’s a center balcony seat this Friday night for $94. Center orchestra seats are priced at around $100.00. Of course, many will wait for “The Irishman” to hit Netflix to watch the three-and-a-half-hour movie, but it most definitely needs to be seen on the big screen.
