Sorry, my mistake; it's $20 extra for seated.  I'm looking at the Adam Pascal/Anthony Rapp show in December.

Another question, if you don't mind: how did you dress when you went to this venue?  Not sure how well people need to be dressed here.  Thank you again!

As far as the balcony in general, the view really isn't that bad, except for the few seats that are behind some relatively thin support beams.  I unfortunately don't know the exact seat numbers for those, but I believe that if you go for the front and/or center for each section, you should be fine!

I was fortunate to be able to go on Saturday night, and wow, it was an all-around fabulous production!  I used to be a classical musician, so it's always a treat for me to see performances like this with a full orchestra.  But like @MCfan2 said, Corey Cott's "Maria" was, without exaggeration, the single most beautiful thing I've probably ever experienced.

Last performance week, Bronx Tale promised to donate $4 from every seat sold to the victims of the recent Bronx Fire.  I'm sure that encouraged a lot of people to see the show; that was certainly the case for me.

Thank you so much, ladies!  That was very helpful!  Let's see what I'll be able to throw together...  Hahaha.

Hi everyone,

Sorry to revive an old thread, but I'm attending a show at 54 Below in the middle of January, and I'm having a little trouble thinking of what to wear.  I pretty much never had to dress up in the middle of winter before, so I was wondering if you ladies could help suggest clothing/outfit ideas for me?  If it helps, I'll be walking and taking public transport through the city to get to the venue.

Thank you!

To my understanding, contracts are usually for one year from first preview, so I expect that they'll both be in until at least toward the end of March!

 I would try either Play That Goes Wrong or Bronx Tale!  I've personally been able to get rush tickets late in the day for both of these shows, and I thought they were both fantastic!

Play That Goes Wrong originally had one show on Wednesday and two shows on Sunday, but they switched to the "traditional" schedule after the cast change!  So yes, they will have matinee and evening performances on Wednesdays!

OP, to answer your question about Bronx Tale, it is (in my opinion) definitely worth it to rush!  Adam Kaplan just stepped into the lead role this week, so I don't know if that's affected the ease of attaining rush tickets at all, but as of last week, it was definitely possible to get rush tickets even after the box office opened, especially on weekdays!

I honestly think front mezzanine would be great for this show!  I saw the show from the extreme side on house left, and I still didn't even mind the view.  I definitely agree that close up is better for this show, but I think front row mezzanine would be quite a good view, and it would still allow you to feel close to the actors.

I made a little detour this morning to pass by the Broadhurst Theatre just out of curiosity, and at 9:15, there were four people in line.

I PM'ed you!

 

Thanks for letting us know your thoughts so early!  I was just wondering, how was the lottery experience? How many people were able to get the free tickets?

Thanks!
