Soho Theatre Joins Forces with DynamO Pricing

May 21, 2024

We are pleased to announce our new partnership with Soho Theatre, marking a milestone in our efforts to help the performing arts sector engage fill more seats and drive-up ticket revenue. This collaboration with one of London's key cultural venues is a significant development in our mission to revolutionize pricing strategies in the performing arts.

Dynamic Growth - Soho Theatre's Strategic Expansion into Walthamstow

Located in the heart of London’s West End, Soho Theatre stands out as a premier venue showcasing a diverse range of theatre, comedy, and cabaret. Since its establishment in the early 1970s from a former synagogue, the theatre has grown into a cultural powerhouse with three performance spaces, attracting over 180,000 audience members each year. Originating from the ground-breaking Soho Poly Theatre, it remains at the forefront of promoting varied and provocative works. This year, they are set to expand their reach with the opening of a new 1000-seat venue in Walthamstow, broadening their capacity to host larger audiences and more ambitious projects.

Advanced Pricing Strategies at Soho Theatre

We’ve integrated DynamO’s dynamic pricing engine with the Spektrix CRM and ticketing system, which will now allow all Spektrix clients to activate our dynamic pricing solutions effortlessly.

In this initial phase, we've launched our service across more than 100 performances at Soho Theatre. We’ve worked closely with the team at Soho Theatre to review their current processes and refine their pricing strategy. Having fully understood their needs and ambitions, our pricing expert, Dr. Pal Danyi, we’ve supported them to make adjustments tailored to meet their unique needs and optimize outcomes.

Risk-Free Innovation: How Soho Theatre Implemented DynamO’s Pricing Solution

Mariko Primarolo, Head of Sales and Ticketing at Soho Theatre, commented on the partnership:

“It has been good working with DynamO Pricing and we have found the team responsive and supportive throughout the onboarding and development process. Dynamo have consistently gone the extra mile to problem solve quickly and efficiently. We are currently piloting the programme, having been interested in the dynamic approach to differing dynamic pricing strategies. The business model, with no upfront fee, was also a draw allowing us to pilot the programme to see if it works with Soho Theatre’s unique programming style.”
"Soho Theatre has been manually adjusting their ticket prices for years. Automating this process significantly enhances their operations, given their deep understanding of show attendance and revenue expectations. Their audience is already accustomed to variable pricing, so this transition will feel seamless and natural"

remarks Dr. Pal Danyi, CINO of DynamO Pricing.

Bridging Tradition and Innovation: How DynamO Pricing Supports Culture

Bence Marosi CEO of DynamO Pricing highlights the company's deep connection to the performing arts, embracing bothits for-profit and non-profit dimensions.

"Originating in Hungary, DynamO understands the importance of maintaining excellent audience experiences in the arts sector while smoothly transitioning venues and organizers to evolved pricing strategies"

he states.

We look forward to expanding our dynamic pricing services throughout Soho Theatre’s programming. We believe this partnership will positively impact audience engagement and revenue, as it has with our clients in other countries. This collaboration underscores DynamO's dedication to equipping arts organizations with the necessary resources to thrive in a challenging environment.

July 9, 2025

We’re pleased to announce a new partnership between Watermill Theatre and DynamO Pricing. Based in Bagnor, Watermill is a regional producing theatre with a strong track record of attracting a wide audience. 

The Watermill team - led by Marketing Director Emma Bright - is excited to harness DynamO’s cutting-edge pricing technology to build on this success, and continue to maximise revenue and attendance.

Increased efficiency and impact

After experimenting with manual dynamic pricing and making frequent updates to ticket prices, the Watermill team were ready to explore an automated solution to streamline internal processes, free up marketing team resources and drive an uplift in revenue. 

Improved reporting

Through our conversations with Watermill and the specific requests they had for data they’d like to see in their monthly reports, we were able to update our standard reporting and roll this out across all of our clients. We’re thrilled to be able to respond to client demand and continually improve our offering. 

Great shows that audiences love

DynamO announces milestone partnership with Edinburgh International Festival
July 9, 2025

We’re thrilled to announce a new partnership between Edinburgh International Festival and DynamO Pricing. Drawing on their 75+ year legacy of commissioning world-class global performances in the heart of Scotland, the International Festival will now harness DynamO’s cutting edge pricing technologies to drive an increase in revenue and attendance. 

Leon Gray, Edinburgh International Festival’s Head of Ticketing and Audience Experience said of the collaboration: “We’re drawing on the DynamO proprietary pricing technology and expertise to help refine our strategy over the course of the sales cycle, with the overall aim to boost ticket revenue while making the festival more accessible to wider audiences,” (INTIX).

Tailored dynamic pricing

After seeing encouraging initial results with an alternative dynamic pricing provider, the International Festival were seeking to refine their approach with a more user-friendly and responsive solution, and gain greater access to hands-on support. We worked with Leon and the wider Festival team to configure pricing prior to tickets going live, following analysis of sales data from 2024. In doing so, we factored in the Festival’s internal pricing logic - for example, the need for concessionary tickets for audience members under the age of 18 to always be 50% less than the full price. 

Ongoing commitment to audiences 

EIF have long been dedicated to fostering accessibility for their audiences, offering various affordable ticket schemes and concessions to reduce unnecessary barriers to arts access. In fact this year, they have committed over 50% of their tickets to be priced at £30 or under, and have £10 affordable tickets for every performance in the programme. DynamO’s pricing technologies support this commitment, with flexible pricing that makes revenue more predictable and contributes to the longevity of these schemes, and price caps that ensure ethical practice.

Seamless integration

We directly integrated our dynamic pricing engine with Edinburgh International Festival’s CRM and ticketing system, Spektrix, via their API. This integration pulls through all relevant event and ticketing data from Spektrix, so the EIF team can login to DynamO and access our pricing and reporting tools with absolute efficiency. 

Finger on the pulse

Developed by DynamO’s CEO Bence Marosi and fantastic team of developers, our pricing technology is designed to be robust and responsive, ensuring that revenue and attendance are optimised on a continual basis. Essentially that means that prices will go down, as well as up, based on demand. Thanks to the availability of real-time data, the International Festival team will be able to login to their DynamO dashboard to easily oversee ticket sales during key campaign periods - and gain insights to inform their marketing strategies.
