Top prices of $5 for orchestra/balcony and $6 for loge would be equivalent to about $36 and $44 in 2018.

And I’m sure tickets at the box office through the Christmas holiday were mostly side seats or too close to the screen.

In William Goldman’s book The Season about the Broadway season of ‘67 to '68 he mentions a theater party lady deciding to get tickets for her groups to the film at the Criterion well before the world premiere because of the very poor theater offerings. There’s no possibility of Streisand canceling and her having a hundred angry theatergoers on her hands.
