Brian Cox Balks at Nearly $1,000 Ticket Prices to See Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal on Broadway: 'It's 'Not Right'


Brian Cox says the nearly $1,000 ticket price for Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal's Broadway revival of 'Othello' is "not right."

The Succession star and stage veteran, 78, called out the more expensive tickets to see Washington, 70, and Gyllenhaal, 44, perform during a talk at a London theatre, according to the Daily Mail. Fellow stage actress Audra McDonald recently told Gyllenhaal she also can't see the show due to pricing when the two sat down with Variety for a one-on-one conversation about their current Broadway productions. Washington’s response comes a few weeks after Othello director Kenny Leon also weighed in on the high ticket prices in an interview with the Daily Mail.
