Amex presales basically give their cardholders first dibs. My parents always buy this way and have always been able to get excellent seats. Amex pays a big premium to have this perq available to its customers so there are always great seats available to them first.

I know for Sweeney Todd, they definitely get the good seats as this is how I got front row tickets.

No. All seats are available to AmEx cardholders. The Odd Couple, for example, nearly sold-out from the pre-sale alone.

But yeah i thought of gettinga card just for this reason but the yearly fee is like 70-90 dollars.

So is it first dibs or is it a different stack?

ALL tickets are available...it isn't a specific seating area.
