Chris Tucker performance moved to Plachta Auditorium after low ticket sales:
Comedian Chris Tucker’s Saturday performance has been moved to Warriner Hall’s Plachta Auditorium after selling only 1,200 tickets so far.The Central Michigan University Program Board decided to change the venue originally scheduled in the CMU Events Center, but the low number of tickets sold could not fill enough of the 5,300 seats available.Student Activities Coordinator Damon Brown, PB adviser, said the show unfortunately had to move due to low ticket sales. Brown said he felt Plachta Auditorium would be more suitable for the 1,200 individuals who already purchased tickets.“We didn’t sell enough tickets and had to make a decision in the best interest of everyone going to the show,” Brown said. “We wanted to make sure it would be a good environment for Chris and for people attending the show.”Brown said he felt the ticket prices did not play a role in the poor sales, and said Chris Tucker performances in different markets generally cost much more to attend.I don’t think ticket prices are high by any stretch of imagination with bleacher tickets for only ten dollars,” Brown said. “For those 1,200 people that have tickets, it will be a great show.”Damon said Plachta Auditorium will be sectioned off to reflect the value of tickets already purchased. For example, those who bought floor seats will have seats closer to the stage reserved.
