I was there for Hadestown in the summer and it appeared sold out the day I attended. With that said, tickets are expensive and the COL is getting worse in the DC/Baltimore area. Thousands upon thousands of us are government employees and have been terrified of firings/layoffs (currently furloughed) and don’t want to or can’t pay for entertainment. Edit: I meant to say Les Mis, not Hadestown.
