This may be totally off the mark, but here goes. Covent Garden is a great deal smaller than a lot of the opera houses etc that big touring companies like the Bolshoi normally appear in, right? Would lthis have anything to do with the types of prices they feel they have to charge? (fewer seats, etc.)

To be fair, though, the £105 tickets are for a limited number of 'super seats', which buys you champagne and smoked salmon and a souvenir programme as well. The top price for 'normal' seats is actually less than the Royal Ballet charged for Cinderella this season. But I do agree that the cheaper seats are more expensive, if you see what I mean, and the standing is also much dearer than normal.

Hi, Ella! Welcome to Ballet Alert!
I've copied your post over to the Bolshoi Ballet forum, where we have a discussion of the London season going on. (It will appear under my name and not yours -- sorry for the confusion -- but merging one post into a thread and then letting the poster know it's been done is difficult!)
Here's the thread:

Well, they're coming to Seattle this autumn, to a 1500 - 2000 seat house, and the tickets range is $30-99 US.
