Calling the Box Office

I beleive they sell too.

I was under the impression that you can call the box office- it's just really hard to get the number because they want Telecharge and Ticketmaster to handle everything. Kind of like getting Amazon's customer service number. :) Thanks for the clarification.

Just to clarify further -- you CAN call the box office, but given that they're typically staffed with only one or two people at a time (who are there to help customers there in the lobby), they'd greatly prefer you call telecharge/ticketmaster (and as Plum points out, it's not easy to get the numbers).

One cannot call the Shubert-owned box offices directly. Tele-charge which is owned and operated by the Shubert Organization, is set up to handle any and all calls that would ordinarily have gone to the theatre. By now there are thousands of former employees (like me) who can attest to that fact.

Remember in the "old days" when you called the theatre, invariably you did not speak with someone in the box office, but rather someone in the mail room which was 'upstairs'--away from the B.O.
