    There is exactly zero reasons to spend $100 at the theater for less than 6 people. Maybe 5 people if your in Manhattan

        You can skip the snacks. They aren’t required.
        Your total could have been $53.04.
        And you might have been able to skip the convenience fee if you got the tix at the theater directly. Some times they still have an extra fee.

        Tickets around the US range from $9-16 typically.
        A few high end markets or “special thearters”, they can be over $20.
