Anyone know what the perf. schedule is/might be? Planning an Oct trip & always looking for that elusive Sun eve spot. Holding off on airline tix etc til I have an idea of itinerary, which will include this and Here Lies Love plus possibly Camelot as it didn’t make the cut for my upcoming Apr and Aug trips. (Wish they’d post schedules before sales/pre-sales start; some do, but not usually.)

If I was a betting man, I’d say the odds of this show having a four show weekend is slim to none.

Did anyone else sign up for the pre-sale tomorrow and not get a confirmation email?

I don’t think I have got one. Anyone who isn’t in the city how do you plan to coordinate merrily with Here We Are? Eg buy merrily now or wait until here we are dates have been confirmed or but for first preview and hope it overlaps with here we are (possible since merrily is late Sep).

You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)

If I'm lucky enough to score tickets for both, I'll go into the city 2x. (but I'm only in Boston!) Will I TRY to put them on the same trip? Yes, but I'm not too worried if I don't.

I haven’t gotten anything regarding the presale either.

I thought the email comes tomorrow morning, but maybe I am recalling things incorrectly. In any event, today isn't over yet.

Sorry, I was referring to the confirmation email that you signed up for the pre-sale.

Ah, my bad. That email I did receive about 12 hours after I signed up.

Please share the pre-sale info here when available. I'm worried I won't get it since I didn't get a confirmation email. Please and thank you!

I envy you folks who can just buy tickets tomorrow. My family situation makes planning New York City trips months in advance impossible. I signed up anyway to torture myself, I guess.
But good luck to everyone!

But you would be planning months from now - just with the ticket being your starting point!

And people wonder why ticket websites crash when tickets for shows go on sale...lol. I'm not saying it's bad or anything, but the more the code gets shared, the more people have access to presale, the more people will log in at 10am and purchase tickets and the website will be slow.

I could be wrong but I suspect while the show will sell out I can’t imagine every ticket, especially premium tickets, selling out immediately. This is very niche Sondheim and Frank isn’t Hugh Jackman hehe.

Agreed. I think my strategy is probably to wait and see how things play out. I'm guessing my Mom will want to come in to see this and Here We Are in the same weekend and I have a feeling we'll have a lot less flexibility with that show.

Wasn't the NYTW run completely sold out before tickets went on sale to the public? I definitely will be booking this ASAP!
The idea is to work and to experiment. Some things will be creatively successful, some things will succeed at the box office, and some things will only - which is the biggest only - teach you things that see the future. And they're probably as valuable as any of your successes. -Harold Prince

I believe the NYTW run was much shorter and in a much smaller theatre; making it a harder ticket then than it might be now.

All that may be true.....but I'm simply not taking my chances! I can only go on weekends during the run and I got shut out of the off bway run. (As I'd need to take at least 2 days off of work during the week. My days of making a round trip in one day and being able to be useful at work the next morning are LOOONG gone.

I mean definitely do that, wouldn’t want anyone to miss out. They are about to put 10x amount of tickets on sale (assuming they don’t hold back tickets for after presale) than NWTW at probably exponentially higher prices, hence why the demand may not appear to translate in the same way. Although we will find out soon I guess!
