A Note On Ticket Prices

The Chocolate Factory Theater now offers a tiered ticketing price structure, with the goal of remaining accessible to every person who wishes to attend our events while acknowledging the very real value of the service – namely, artistic and administrative labor – that a ticket purchase represents.

We ask that you select the option that best reflects your individual circumstances. This is not a “pay what you wish” scenario; rather, it’s “pay as much as your circumstances allow”. For context: in the absence of outside funding, a true cost ticket to a Chocolate Factory performance would be $275.

Our tiered options are as follows:

  1. $35 (base price – the equivalent of one hour of labor for a lead artist, performer, design collaborator or technician)
  2. $25
  3. $15
  4. $50
  5. $100
  6. $275 (true cost ticket)

Our intention here is not to create walled gardens or tiers of access based on monetary status; we’re merely trying to make our practice – of paying artists, technicians and administrative staff a fair wage (more than 80% of our annual budget goes to labor, fyi) – more sustainable (or truthfully, less unsustainable), while remaining (we hope!) accessible and welcoming to all.

As a ticket buyer, you’ll receive the same experience regardless of the price you pay. It’s general admission for everyone.

Showing will take place at The Chocolate Factory Theater, 38-33 24th Street, Long Island City.

Structured as an evening-length reading, Radio compresses a decade of Richard Foreman’s writing from 1973 to 1983 into a single, continuous experience, illuminating motifs of domestic life, paradise, and mortality as they echo and transform. 

Performers: Ugo Chukwu, Lucy Kaminsky, Aaron Murtagh, Gabriella Rhodeen, and Annie Rossi. With contributions by Jennie Mary Tai Liu and devika v. wickremesinghe. Texts written by Richard Foreman.
