You go to a venue, sit or stand with other members of the audience, and watch real people on stage acting, singing, or dancing. It involves traveling to the Venue, which is often difficult for people who don't live in major cities, and often means paying a high admission charge. Ieisn’ surprising, therefore, that some people think live events are only for people who have plenty of money, or who lve in a big city. But what if we could bring live events to more people closer to where they live? That's exactly the question organizations like the New York Metropolitan Opera and the National Theater in the U.K. ave asked themselves, Their answer is events that are broadcast live in movie theaters. “The idea has taken off around the world, Apart from the advantages to the public, the organizations: themselves also benefit. This kind of live event actracts new people who wouldn't normally walk. into an opera house ora theater. Perhaps after seeing and enjoying a performance in their local movie theater, they may be inspired to travel to see a live opera, play, or ballet in person. It also treans that the organizations can make much more money from a performance than by just selling tickets to one audience in one room. Some people say that watching a ve event at the movies cant possibly be as good as being there in person, They argue that you'll never experience the atmosphere ofa lve event ina great venue unless you're there.
