Hi,
First we need to evaluate all types of revenues : # visitors x avg spend / visitor
- # visitors : we could calculte it based on the number of seats available X consider the number of show / year (evaluate the # show / week x the # of weeks planned) X the avg occupancy of show over the year
- Avg spend : we need to consider the different type of revenues > ticket sale + goodies + food
Second we should look at the cost side
- we need first list all the potential costs and then understand weither its fixed or variable (depending on the business model). Salaries (actors, technical staff), distributiion fees (intermediairies, promotion) , Rent (theatre), Royalties (if the show is a franchise)
- for the cost of goodies and food, it would be easier to assume a growth margin on this type of product and apply it to the revenue calculated

Hi,
You have to look at the revenues:
- The number of tickets sold (Days it is shown * capacity of the show * avg. occupancy of the show). You should also take into account that the occupancy of the average show may be declining over time (unless it's a blockbuster)
- Price per ticket (average price or you can segment the seats according to their value)
and costs:
- Fixed costs (Salaries, Marketing, Rentals, Equipment, Utilities, Royalties)
- Variable costs (Discounts and price promotions)
Without additional information, it's not possible to provide any further recommendation
Best,
