Tony Award Tickets

Up until today, a note on the Tony Award page said that tickets would go on sale to the general public at 9:00 a.m. on May 1. Now the message says, "

Due to limited availability, we are not able to sell tickets to the general public for the 2018 ceremony. Thanks!

The Tony Awards are presented by The Broadway League and the American Theatre Wing."

Anyone have any idea why the change/lack of availability? My daughter and I were going to go this year.

This season was such a bust. Who'd want to go anyways?

yep. all in one night. I got to see the whole thing when I got to be on stage with Great Comet 2 years ago. we got to sit thru a big chuck of the rehearsal.

They had a submission thing on their insta/Facebook asking for fans who wanted to join them. You had to send a pic and say why you loved Great Comet so much. It was very cool. Especially the dress rehearsal and being backstage.

once on this island did something similar last year 

They did end up selling tickets last year, a few days after the Tony nods came out. There is no telling if they will sell tickets this year-there are a bunch of factors that determine whether they will have seats to sell. Last year, tickets started at $500, and I think some were over $1000. I've been the last few years-it's a lot of fun, and everything is live, but you wind up watching almost everything on the video screens (a feed of the TV camera edits) due to how massive Radio City is.

Last year they also sold student rush tickets the day before the Tony awards at around $110 or so.
