Actors and tickets (question)

I was just wondering:
Do Broadway actors get compt tickets for their show?
Do they only get them once or often?
Are there certain shows they get compt tickets for?
(the opening, matinees, weekdays, etc)

Everyone in the cast gets a few tickets for the opening. Im sure they can arrange to get tickets to a regular show if they know a friend or family member is coming.

It depends. As part of their contracts, stars typically get a pair of comps for every performance (as do each member of the creative team -- some get more than a pair). If they can't use them for any given show, they can turn them back in to be sold (or in the case of a long run, they may simply waive their comps after they've run out of family and friends to give them to -- they, of course can always request more house seats at some later date if they need them).

Non-stars typically can access house seats as they need them, but they may not be free and must be paid for either by them or their guests.
