I am coming to New York over spring break (March 6-10) with a friend, and was wondering what our options were as far as getting the cheapest tickets available to shows.
Anyone with info on standing room, student rush, etc. - and which are the best options - your help would be greatly appreciated.
I am somewhat familiar with TKTS, but what time should we plan on showing up? I have no idea how early lines begin to form, but this is during the week, so maybe it won't be as chaotic(?) I also have no idea how dependable this service is, so anyone willing to offer any advice or a little crash course in TKTS, your help would also be greatly appreciated.
Also, I remember talking to someone who said they ushered for a show and were then able to see it for free. We would DEFINITELY be willing to do this, so anyone with info on that (or who knows if this is even an option) please let me know.
Finally, I was wondering what shows have lotteries. Here are the shows we decided are on the top of our list:
Avenue Q
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
Jersey Boys
Sweeney Todd
Light in the Piazza
Phantom of the Opera
Bridge and Tunnel
Doubt
Rabbit Hole
Dog Sees God
Anyone with info and the willingness to share your thoughts would make this boy very happy. Also, anyone who has tickets they are looking to get rid of for the week we'll be in NYC - and if you'd accept less than $30 per ticket - I'd be glad to take them off your hands...
