Per the Telecharge site that just launched:
Tickets are on sale through 7/18. $79 to $321
Sundays are very inconsistently scheduled - most days the show is at 5pm, but there are many weeks where it’s either dark or 1:30/7:30.

Send the freakin' code already! I have a feeling this is going to be like Chess, where the code arrived 45 minutes after the on-sale time.

Looks like they're going standard proscenium with this. Interesting.

The Sunday performance times are odd that they're different almost every week. Just two 3pm matinees in April, then they switch to 5pm, but they're doing some Sundays with two shows. And then they're dark a few Sundays in June(Tony Awards?), but are only doing 7 performances the first two weeks in June.

Curious to see this restaging. For all the talk about how it could only ever work at Circle in the Square, they seem to have found a solution.

looks like the first 4 rows are 'killed' (for now) -- as well as the far sides of orchestra
perhaps they'll try a passerelle rather than a traditional catwalk?
Regardless, i have my tickets for two perfs so far ---- excited to see this again!!!!

I had heard very recently the plan was to build the runway into the house to some extent and also including onstage seating. Wonder if those plans have shifted or if these seating charts are placeholder.

I bought center orchestra row E, but I'm not sure how I feel about this. I was definitely expecting them not to use a proscenium stage, and I thought it odd that the first four rows were unavailable, the first available row was $291, and behind that it jumped to $321. Maybe those first few rows of seats are going to be removed and the stage will extend out there, or maybe they'll be removed and Andre De Shields' table will be positioned there. It's frustrating for them to put the tickets on sale without a clear idea of how this is going to be staged.

Yeah my gut tells me an onstage seating situation is in the works... or maybe that's just wishful thinking from somebody who j'adored the runway seats at PAC.

Thank you so much for posting this (and Jordan, too)! My code email arrived several minutes after I completed my purchase.

Makes sense if they plan to tour this.

I'm wondering if I should wait based on the seating chart and the comments you all are making. I won't be in the city till June so I might wait a few wweeks or so. Just don't want to get something then find out there is onstage seating or some special seating I could have grabbed

Would they add on-stage seating at some later date, after people have already purchased with the understanding that the seating chart on Telecharge represents the setup? After paying $321 per ticket for what appeared to be the best seats, I will be really pissed if they add better options later.

Just a heads up--it appears the ticket prices are cheaper WITHOUT the promo code typed in.
Oh boy do I hate dynamic pricing.

How did you get access to the tickets without the presale code?

I haven't compared any of the codes but assume they are all the same. This is what was sent to me.

Use the pre-sale code see what tickets are available, then click "remove" on the left hand side of your screen. You can still see the available tickets and purchase. In my case the tickets would have been $195 with the code but were $165 without.

That's infuriating.

Yes. They added on-stage seating after the general onside for the most recent Bway Our Town. Unfortunately, sitting on stage was the highlight of that production for me. I'm definitely waiting to buy tickets for Cats. I saw it 3 times at PAC and hope they can capture the energy if it is just a proscenium stage setup.

I think they might be doing a “RuPaul’s Drag Race” style runway, but regardless I’m very excited to see this again in April

Truly! I'm sure it's a computer glitch and nobody is intentionally punishing those who are most excited to see this production, but still feels pretty de-moralizing. You'd hope that a "fan" pre-sale would reward those who are willing to lock in a ticket early, rather than forcing using us to pay the highest price possible to allow the algorithm to calculate demand and price accordingly.
