Are previews still sold cheaper?

Was just wondering are preview performance still sold at a cheaper rate or at the same price for performances after opening night?

Most shows can't afford to change prices anymore. That's why they put out discount codes, generally available during previews.

Then there are the productions which present ticket-buying gimmicks - seats for $19.55 (All Shook Up), all seats for the first preview $19.26 (Wonderful Town), all preview seats $54 (Cry-Baby).

Sad, but true. Unless you go looking for it, previews are not a bargain.

I did, as the above poster pointed out, score CryBaby preview tix for the 54 without a code, as it is a hook.

For any show always search for discount codes: especially during off season (now) BrowadwayBox.com always has them as does several other sources.

Unfortunately it doesn't seem like it. I was hoping the preview tix for The Country Girl would be less than regular - but they weren't. Still bought them and am looking forward to the show.

Keep in mind though that discount codes often come with seating restrictions. If you don't have big issues with where you sit, they're great.

Do you guys think that in that case then, that shows should be able to be reviewed from the first preview onwards, as producers are really not treating previews as previews anymore?

I mean you are no longer being discounted for any tech issues during that pre opening period.
