in my ear the whole time.
3. What are they doing?
A relatively small percent of people said they
a ended a play, a musical, or the opera in the past year.
However, it is interesting to note that the people who
did go to these types of performances usually had
higher education and higher income than other people
taking the survey. In addition, more women went to
these types of performances than men.
Almost 75 percent of the people taking the survey
said they would like to see more concerts and theater
events. However, they said two factors were a problem:
time and money. People did not have time to go to
a live performance, or the performances were not
held at convenient times. Also, ticket prices for live
performances were much higher than prices for other
kinds of entertainment, like movies or leisure sports.
Question 4
