I have gotten opening night tickets to OTHER DESERT CITIES and LADY DAY AT EMERSON'S BAR & GRILL. Neither show had tickets available for that day this much in advance. For DESERT CITIES I got tickets about a week before, for LADY DAY they didn't become available until the day before (two at most, I forget now). Also, for LADY DAY I had to get them at the box office.
I couldn't recommend attending an opening night performance enough. The electricity in the room, at least for these two plays, was palpable and the performers seem to really feed off of it. I'll never forget watching Audra McDonald open LADY DAY, it's one of the most special memories I have.
