theatremania/Trouble ordering NYMF tickets

I'm trying to order tickets to Feeling Electric (it only lists two performances as still being available, which is a problem in itself - I have to see this!). Anyway, I click on the one I want, and it says that tickets are General Admission and $15, but then next to them it says "Unavailable." It says to call the box office, since tickets might still be available that way, but my calls aren't going through.

Has anybody else had similar problems, or know of another way to do this? Thanks.

I know one of the other shows froze ticket sales because of its popularity. It might be the same thing happening here.

Really bizarre; it says to press three to order tickets, but then it says three is invalid.

Wow. I had no trouble ordering tickets to this or any of the shows on my NYMF "must see" list on Monday.

It'll let me leave a message; I guess I'll do that.

MEF, Monday was the day to order.
I know of one show (the first sellout at the festival) did freeze tickets to allow for a few industry comps for performances.

I think a few more are up there now.
But I'm a Cheerleader has no tickets available as of right now, although I think they're already adding at least one more performance.

Hey Everyone! We apologize for the difficulties with the ticket line this morning...theatermania was having a glitch with their phone system. Thank you so much for your support and patience. Tickets are going fast and we here at the Festival are so excited!

We've just added a performance of But I'm a Cheerleader on Sept. 19th at 1:00pm...all of their other performances are sold out. I believe Nerds is sold out and Feeling Electric is close (only a few tix left for 1 performance. Shows like Ballad of Bonnie and Clyde and Plane Crazy are getting close. Keep checking www.nymf.org and theatermania to find the latest news and if performances have been added.

Drop me an e-mail if you have any questions. See you at the Festival!
Always,
