Where is the best place to get tix for SP next month? How much are people paying for tix from outside sources since the show is sold out?

Posted: 4/26/08 at 8:16pmTry for autumn... What else can I tell you? LoL

Posted: 4/26/08 at 8:26pmI just tried for the last week of May and found nothing. I imagine that they get more than a few no-shows. So at this point, if you want to see it, you'll likely have to get them at the door.

Lots of seats must be blocked with the idea to offer "premium seating" after the Tony's. I attempted to get Orch center for mid-July and no luck - only far left/right or loge. With the help of this message board, I chose center lower loge.
Good luck, hope you get the tickets. I printed mine this morning, can't believe I am going!

Posted: 4/26/08 at 10:19pmAs of this morning there were still excellent orchestra seats in early September. Booked mine! Just hope Kelli O’Hara will be there. (Cold virus season, LOL)

To get tix anywhere but Telecharge/Ticketmaster or the box office, you are going to pay a PREMIUM.
I saw it this past week and it's amazing. I was in the second row of the center loge. AMAZING tix. The seating in the loge is practically stadium seating so no worrying about the person in front of you.
Since it is a thrust stage, even the far right or far left seats are good. It is staged beautifully and they never forget there is audience all around them. I think there would be very few bad seats at the Vivian Beaumont.

Posted: 4/26/08 at 10:58pmDo they not do student tickets at all for South Pacific?

Posted: 4/26/08 at 11:09pmI know this isn't what you were looking to hear, but sometimes waiting till a few days or even hours before the performnce works. On a whim, I checked Telecharge.com last night at 1 am and got an AMAZING ticket for today's matinee - Orch, H 404. Incredible.

Posted: 4/26/08 at 11:19pmFor all involved, ANY seat you purchase is 'worth it' - You're seeing the best reviewed show of the '07-'08 B'way season. Buy those tix while you still can. It's worth it. Row C, for your information, is the front row of the orchestra section - be it front-and-center OR extreme side(s).
#14re: SOUTH PACIFIC--WHERE TO GET TICKETS
Posted: 4/26/08 at 11:26pmI don't think there is a bad seat in the house, at least it doesn't look like there is.
#15re: SOUTH PACIFIC--WHERE TO GET TICKETS
Posted: 4/26/08 at 11:33pmIS there a student rush?

There are literally hundreds of house tix on hold every day, waiting to be picked up 48 hrs. before, so check this thread out again, if you can be flexible this way, you're bound to score. Get on speed dial. Outsmart the scalpers.

Posted: 4/27/08 at 12:16amkeith2 , I hope you are better at booking tickets online than you are at posting messages. (Why all the blanks?)

Keith,
There are reserved seats for AMEX cardholders also.
Let me know if you need details or do a search.

Posted: 4/27/08 at 12:36amLCT DOES do student rush. However, it is subject to availability. Which means you are not likely to get it for South Pacific. I believe it is 2 hours prior to showtime they sell it, if they have it.
