Regina Symphony Orchestra sees ticket sales climb after pandemic dip
CBC
After a tough start to the year, the Regina Symphony Orchestra (RSO) says it has seen ticket sales increase over the latest season, which began in September.
In March, RSO musical director Gordon Gerrard told CBC that before the pandemic began, the orchestra could expect to fill 1,200 to 1,500 seats in the 1,900-seat Conexus Arts Centre. But during the 2022/2023 orchestra season — which began in September of last year — Gerrard said they were only about to fill about 400 of those seats.
That resulted in the RSO having to cancel multiple April shows.
But on Friday, Gerrard told CBC that ticket sales are on the rise.
"I'm happy to say that we're definitely in a better position than we were last season," Gerrard said.
