In the sentence, The theater was closed but we didn't have enough money to see it anyway, "it" has an incorrect reference. It is missing the correct noun.

How would you correct the faulty pronoun reference in this sentence The theater was closed but we didn't have enough money to see it anyway?

The faulty reference is using the pronoun 'it' with no antecedent. The antecedent is not 'theater', it doesn't cost anything to see the theater, a building. The sentence must be reworded, for example:The theater was closed but we didn't have enough money to see a movie anyway.Note: The pronoun 'we' does not require and antecedent.

How would you correct the faulty reference in the sentence You called the theater about tickets but they didn't answer?

The faulty reference in the sentence is the plural pronoun 'they' is used to take the place of the singular noun 'theater'. In some cases, it is acceptable to use the plural pronoun 'they' to take the place of a singular noun for a group of people or things. However, the noun 'theater' is not a word for a group, it's a word for an inanimate thing.The sentence must be reworded, for example:You called the theater about tickets but no oneanswered.The compound word 'no one' is an indefinite pronoun, a word that takes the place of a noun for an unknown or unnamed person.

Is this sentence correct I called the theater about tickets but they didn't answer?

Colloquially, yes, with "they" referring to the people at the theater. But grammatically the pronoun should have a proper antecedent: "I called the ticket sellers at the theater but they didn't answer." Or perhaps better is "I called the theater about tickets but no one answered the phone."
