The government decided to raise the the tax for theatrical shows from 8% to 21%

resulting in the greatest loss of audience in living memory

30 percent less public in just one year

People returned to consume 'Proven' entertainment en masse such as American blockbuster...

Faced this reality, the independent theater company Teatreneu decided to look at the situation with humor and invented something:

PAY PER LAUGH

The first comedy theater when you only pay for what you consume

The first comedy shows when you only pay for what you consume

we fitted each seat with a facial recognition system that detects the smile

and propose of the following deals spectators entrance will be totally free

if the show produces no laugh, you don't pay anything

something that living in these days and age is quite reasonable price

however, if you laugh you have to pay for the smile. each smile produces thirty euros cents

something that living these days and age is quite reasonable price

we changed you for this one!

but the end of the show

spectators check their laughter account before paying and even share it on social networks

and so that no one would cry for having laugh more than they could afford the maximum amount to pay

was 18 laughs for 24 euros the average price per ticket increased by 6 euros

the system was covered by the main national meida outlets

and this produced 35 percent more spectators

each pay per laugh show produced 28 thousand euros more ticket money than was normally taken

currently the system is being copied in other theaters in Spain

a mobile phone app was created a system of payment and the first season ticket

was launched for the number I've laughs not shows

we should also not tried of the pay cry

or pay what the fuck system

(what the fuck....)

or... maybe not
