I haven't seen a show since October and most of the theaters gave me a hard time and let me know how annoying it was to print out a ticket. Are they saying yes or no these days? Thanks."
When I was in the city early March the only show that wouldn't print them for me was Little Shop. Every other show did it easily, and that was spread across Schubert and Nederlander. My plan in the future if the box office won't print them is to tell them that I bought the tickets for someone else and they don't have a smart phone.
Got denied at Music Box Theatre (lady was nasty) and for Aladdin we won the lottery and the box office there gave us a really hard time before finally printing them. Took 10 seconds to issue once he stopped giving us the third degree.
All this time later and I still don't understand why something these staffers used to do ALL the time pre-pandemic is now the biggest inconvenience for them.
Music Man - the woman asked how I bought the ticket and I said telecharge and she sounded surprised??? and printed it after making me clarify what I wanted her to do.
Since the re-opening in Sept, the only show that had an e-ticket was MOULIN ROUGE. All the others have been paper tickets and I'm guessing I saw about 20 shows and 5 concerts at Carnegie Hall.

Absolutely no need for a physical ticket it's 2022!
