chris_gerribLast night, I attended another play put on by the Buffalo Theatre Ensemble (BTE). It was "Miss Bennett: Christmas at Pemberley" which is a Jane-Austen-inspired romantic comedy. The lead is Mary Bennett, which is "the bookish, unmarried middle sister" as per the program. It was nicely done and very amusing.
Last year, I attended another BTE offering, Andy Warhol's Tomato. I mentioned that the performance was sparcely-attended, with two thirds of their theate's 186 seats empty. Last night, the theater was almost full with maybe 10 empty seats. (I suspect some of those were sold but the attendees couldn't make it.) Again, nobody affiated with BTE is making a living doing this, but the type of show does matter when it comes to attendance.
