Streisand's promoters sue for unsold tickets

The promoter of superstar Barbara Streisand's "sell-out" European tour in July is suing three agencies over thousands of seats that went unsold.

The tour, Streisand's first in more than a decade, was much hyped, with ticket prices ranging from $150 (€108)) to $1200 (€865). It was claimed the demand for tickets was so great, they were being sold online for more than twice their face value.
