I cannot contain my excitement for this! My mother and I are die-hard Groban fans! We will both be there for sure!
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

Bought tickets for a preview weekend. Weekend Sat evening: Center orch up to row P is $319.50 with fees ($299 + 20.50 in fees), beyond that is $243.50 ($229 + 14.50 in fees). Rear orch is 213.50 all in.
Mezz is either 319.50 or 243.50. Middle mezz is $193.50 ($179 + 14.50), rear mezz is $89.75 ($79 + 10.75).
EDIT: Wednesday mat tickets appear to be cheaper. Premium orch is $249.50 all in, side/non premium orch is $193.50, wee back rear orchestra is $100.75, front mezz is all $193.50, mid-mezz/rear mezz ranges from $59.75 to 162.50.

Got my tickets a bit toward the back of the orchestra but not a extremely horrible price!

Many a production at the Lunt ever since Beauty and the Beast closed has overpromised and underdelivered.
I am literally BEGGING this won't be the case with Sweeney. On paper, this is in tremendous hands with Kail, Groban, Ashford, and that stellar creative team.
Oh look, a bibu!

I want to splurge on a March 25th ticket for myself (birthday weekend) but if they have an easy lottery, I'd rather wait. Rear mezz prices aren't horrible, though.

These prices were about what I expected. I got front mezz for a few different dates so even though I'm a bit skeptical on the casting as of right now, this whole thing really excites me.
It looks like the last 3 rows are $69.75, for those who were wondering about the cheapest seats.

I’m sure it’ll be an online lottery and none of those are “easy” for a show that will have the kind of buzz this one will have.

You're more hopeful than I was. I truly thought the cheapest seat would be $90.

I will definitely pay what I paid for ITW! This will definitely be worth it! I missed the first opportunity to see Groban on Broadway! I most certainly won't miss this one!

Wait, these prices are much better than I was expecting!

I don’t see how any show can justify charging more than that for the back of that mezzanine.

I just got tickets for 3/25 - front mezz. Really looking forward to this production. Dumb question - is the cast more likely to mark during the final previews - saving energy for opening night?

I go to final previews all the time and never have to worry about that.

Thanks! I was hoping you'd weigh in. I figured that was the case as they're all pros. Just love this show so much and want it to be incredible

Actually, they are $62.95, even cheaper. That's how much I just paid.

Got tickets in the last 3 rows for $59 each. Considering there’s a 70% increase in price from row L to row K, I just opted for the closest, cheapest option.

Going first preview. Anyone have any insight as to why its a Sunday mat? I don't think Ive ever seen an opening preview on a Sunday Matinee.

Have they just been changing prices for the past half hour? Everyone’s saying they’re seeing different prices.

Looks like Wednesday pricing is a little lower

I went ahead and got a $79.00 ticket for the first preview performance on 2/26/2023. $92.95 including fees. Not bad for aisle seat row G in the mezzanine. If this is as good as I think it will be, I'll probably be back later on in the run via lottery or something else.

Probably, depending on whether it's a weekday or a weekend which is always $10-20 more expensive

Orch A & B are oddly placed on the TM seat map — do we think that there going to be removed for the pit… & perhaps C is going to wind up being the front row?
Ok - A & B look normal now on the map. I guess they’re going to be there. I was excited that I might have unknowingly scored first row.

Just got Friday March 31, rear Orchestra left, on the aisle, $244 for the pair all in. A pretty straight view up the aisle.

I’d say the opposite actually, that’s when the critics are there. That’s why I prefer to see a show in the final days of previews. But they are professional and should be on point no matter when you go.

Honestly, those side aisles in the rear mezzanine (seats 1 and 2) have a better view than anything in the center sections back there.
