Because there’s always someone, somewhere who could use this info, a Sunday, Dec. 10 performance was just added. I had mentioned previously that I was holding this Sunday spot waiting for them to extend, but they ended up not scheduling a Dec. 10 performance when they extended. But after a little wishful thinking and contacting the box office, they did add one and I will be able to see this before it closes!

I’m having an issue today on iPad using Safari in landscape mode (which is primarily how I use my iPad). I can no longer click on the date in the “Last Post” column in the forums and jump to the last page of posts. It could be because the ads are starting to overlap with that column. When I turn it to portrait mode, it’s not a problem. I can click on the “Last Post” column dates and there are no ads to overlap.

I had been waiting for this to extend since I will be in NYC a few days after the original closing date. Saved a Sunday spot for it and it happens to be one of the only Sundays they won’t have a show. Darn!

A Shed Builder 2 membership or higher is supposed to have a benefits of “All handling fees waived,” so that may be why some people weren’t charged the $5 per ticket fee.

I am Builder 1 and when I went to a browser I was previously already logged into, I got into the queue to the website in a few seconds. But wasn’t sure if it was truly recognizing me because it didn’t sound like I was seeing what other people saw. So I did what another person said, which was to log out and back in. Then I was immediately able to purchase tickets at around 1:55. Good luck, everyone!

That cast is incredible! So somehow I’m now going to see two Second Stage productions during my May trip. If I’d realized they were going to pull this kind of cast together, I would have gone ahead and bought a subscription package.

StageDoor3 said: "Was Jonathan Groff in tonight, Friday, Dec 16... and potentially in the show on the weekend? My tickets are for Saturday Dec 17 matinee. Fingers crossed."

Yes, he was in on Friday night. The couple in front of me looked at the slip in the program announcing who was on as Frank Jr. and thought it meant Jonathan was out, too. 

 

Oh good! I was in London a couple of months ago and was considering seeing this, but I ended up passing on it to go to other shows and do touristy things. Glad I’ll get to see it here.

I watched the NPR Tiny Desk performance and really enjoyed it, but was a little thrown off by some mixed reviews and reports of sound issues. I might have to go see this instead of KPOP on my December trip since I think that one will still be around until at least next spring.

Really interested in hearing people’s first impressions on this one. I won’t be back in NYC until December, but am keeping a slot open for this one. Tickets aren’t on sale past Nov. 27, but Kate Nash said in a TikTok that it would be running until Jan. 1, so it should extend until then, assuming it does well. They are also offering Thursday matinees, which is great.

I had a lot of points saved up and thought about using them for tickets, but since I’m really picky about where I sit, I didn’t want to chance getting seats that I wasn’t happy with. I decided to just cash most of my points in for gift cards to Sardi’s and Glass House Tavern. At least I can get some nice meals before my upcoming shows. They came in the mail really fast, too.

Bought my tickets today, but won’t be going until December. Looking forward to reading what everyone has to say until then!

The small print on their membership page does say the following, so hopefully they are making sure that there aren’t more memberships than possible tickets:

“Membership tickets are guaranteed through the priority booking period, but are subject to availability once tickets are made available to the general public. We encourage you to take advantage of the priority booking period to choose from the full menu of performance dates and seating options.”

OuttaTowner said: "I believe it’s only certain tiered members only, no?

I received a mail from them yesterday saying that could buy tix (based on my membership) on Aug 24 at noon."

Yeah, I think it’s only Premier memberships right now. Unless there was a glitch earlier today, the lower level membership sale starts Aug. 24 at noon. I tried logging in and buying just in case and it stopped me.

Thanks, Taffy! That helps in planning since I’m one of those people who buys tickets for everything way in advance.

I’ve been wondering when tickets might go on sale, too. I decided to go ahead and book flights and a hotel for a week in December, hoping that the casting notice dates are correct and that I will be able to get tickets for that week since I have a membership.
