I hope to. I’ll definitely be buying DOWNSTATE on Thursday but will wait to see the seat locations on offer for SMALL MOUTH before breaking out the wallet.

I believe I read somewhere that tickets go on sale August 15.

E102 sounds tempting. I like the idea of facing the stage directly, avoiding a crick in my neck in the process. Thanks for the info, Steve.

That turned out to be a great resource! Thank you so much. Decisions, decisions….

I couldn't find any discussion about seating for this show. Given that the 1st couple of rows are like $500 ea....which is out of the question...can anyone who's actually seen the show suggest where I look? I understand the show's all over the floor, but is/are any section(s) more favorable in terms of sight lines? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I was incredibly late to this party. Caught the matinee this afternoon and all 3 brilliant leads were in. And utterly flawless they were. Packed house loved every minute of it. A truly sterling start to my 12-day theater trip.

I have no experience with Criterion Ticketing who sold me my April 28 last performance ticket. Will they automatically refund my ticket back to my credit card or do I have to ask?

What times does the Sunday 3pm matinee let out? I have an evening performance and need to squeeze dinner between the two shows. Thanks.

Contrary to your assertion, I’ve got a ticket and haven’t heard anything from Telecharge. At least not yet…

Sorry to report that the same issue continues. To their credit, Telecharge PM'd me shortly after my initial post, apologizing and acknowledging the problem they were having and that they were working on it. If I still wanted to buy the ticket to Stereophonic, I should call them. Didn't have time yesterday, so today I went back online to order it. Same dang error message. So I broke down and called them. Unfortunately, when trying to order the ticket and telling the agent that I want to purcha...

Anybody know what's going on at Telecharge? Since their new site went live, I can't seem to order any tickets online. Yesterday, I tried multiple times (through multiple browsers) to order Gatsby tickets. Got through the payment page, hit the submit button, and it comes back to the payment page as "Syntax error" and a bunch of jibberish. After 4 or 5 tries, I gave up and called them and ordered the ticket. Today, the same thing is happening while trying to order a ticket for Stereophonic. I g...

Trying to plan a revisit to Titanique (5pm Saturday shows) for my trip in May, so I need something short enough at 2, that I have time to get down to E 14th by 5."Just read on the other board that, in Chicago, it was 90 intermission-less minutes.

I remember watching an interview with her a few months back saying she wanted to get back to the stage so I’m glad she’s able to!"Same here. I snatched up 4th row center orchestra seat for the 2nd preview. I'm SO up for a live thriller. Sure do hope it delivers.

Nope. Emily Skinner has joined the cast of New York, New York.

But the burning question is WHY? What the hell do they actually DO to warrant charging such outrageously exorbitant fees? And the “well, It’s a percentage of the ticket price” just doesn’t cut it. It may be the way it is, but it sucks bigtime and is clearly just another money grab that they get away with. No logical reason why it should be calculated as a % of the ticket price. They do NOTHING…including not even printing a damn ticket. Disgusting…though I’m sure I’ll be pillag...

Telecharge, to me, continues to have the most “reasonable” fees. Looking at Funny Girl for my May trip, SeatGeek wanted $52(!) in fees. Granted that was for a Friday premium orchestra seat ($542) for a Lea performance….which is why I happily went with a Julie Benko Thursday show for, literally, half that cost. Not remotely interested in paying 2x the cost for the same show…and not necessarily a fan of Ms. Michelle anyway. Different strokes.

Much appreciated, Taffy.

For those who’ve seen this in London, would the show be best experienced from the center orchestra or the front mezz? The Schoenfeld seating chart shows the mezz overhangs row J. That’s about 11 rows back…considerably farther than I usually try to sit. I just wonder if the staging might be better viewed from upstairs.I’ve also read that seating in the mezz there is a tad cramped. I’m hardly a petite waif and would rather not be uncomfortable for the duration of the play.Any helpful insights w...
