also thanks for this code. It still works. The code play1 no longer does.

How do you use the code on Ticketmaster? The offer box doesn't seem to show up.

EDIT: Figured it out - was trying performances the code wasn't valid for.

Prices got raised sharply after the opening, although there are some odd anomalies at the moment. I glanced at the days when I'm going next month. Premium center orchestra seats on weekdays are $209, while the Mezzanine Row C is $20 more at $229. Row G in the Mezzanine is $149.

While I'm not surprised the prices went up, and I'm glad I got tickets a couple of weeks ago, I'm surprised at how much they went up, from $50 to $70. The reviews were good, but not spectacular, for a show that isn't exactly a household name. How long did it take Hamilton to get to these prices?

Is this real? How can that be? When did you purchase the tickets?

I was under the impression TodayTix already had the tickets they sell with them and their system was always accurate on displaying how many tickets they have left. I find it weird for them to sell a ticket and then cancel it afterwards saying it’s because it’s “selling out”. If that’s the case I wouldn’t trust TodayTix for any future purchase, just seems unreliable.

No longer...just tried to get seats again and no go for the discount codes!

Interesting. The last three rows of the orchestra, center to side starting in Row Q, are $159 on weekdays in May. (That's a drop of $50 from late last night, at least for rear center orchestra.) That's what I paid before the big ticket price boost - in Row Q center.

So if you're looking for less outrageously priced tickets, they exist - for now.

I'm not sure if the producers are playing this right, or if they raised prices too much before the show even has Tony nominations to brag about. But if they are wrong, they won't hesitate to drop the prices.

I impulsively decided on Monday to take a trip to NYC this August, and this show was at the top of my list. Bought a super cheap plane ticket, and an hour later bought an aisle seat for Mezz Row E for 129. Now that seat is listed at 209. Glad I hit purchase when I did!

I'm a little ticked off right now, and wondering if someone can shed some light on the general rules that govern when a seat is labeled "partial view."

I needed to buy a last minute ticket for someone for tonight's performance. Given the general scarcity and last minute nature, I wasn't as careful as I usually am. I just grabbed a seat on Stubhub. It was Orchestra F 16 (last seat on the right). I was texting with her after she arrived and she was concerned she might miss stuff on the right side. As am I. I said, "Well, can you see the staircase leading to the door on the right side?" She could not. I was in the mezz when I saw it a few days ago, but I'm pretty sure she's going to miss any time Orpheus is on those stairs, including the final scene! How is that not labeled as partial view?? What exactly are the standards, if there are any?

With Ticketmaster, I think the only standard is they take your money and they give you what they want, DWWST12.

I sat left orchestra E1 (aisle) tonight. Great seat, tho some scenes were blocked by one actor standing in front of another. Best seats center orchestra. I can't speak to Mezz or Balcony as I don't see well and never sit up there. The boxes are probably good too. I sat in those for Springsteen, actually in his box left side facing stage. Clear shot of stage though you will miss the band members on left side of stage.

For anyone interested, the audience rewards selections for HadesTown are fantastic. We were planning to see the Wednesday matinee of Waitress, but Shoshana is out and we were able to get a refund. So we are going to see HadesTown. However, I didn't want to drop $250 per ticket, so I went to audience rewards. We were able to get two orchestra tickets for $72.50 each. The seats are in N5 and N7, which I hear is a pretty fantastic view. So stoked to see this!

Schedule:

Tuesday | The Ferryman

Wednesday | HadesTown and Aladdin

Thursday | To Kill a Mockingbird

Friday | Tootsie

Saturday | Prom and Network

They wanted orchestra so I got extreme side, row M on the right side. Nowhere did it say anything about partial view and when I bought these tickets they were higher priced than mezzanine and orchestra seats. Would be very misleading if paying that much more for a non full view."

In case anyone is interested, these seats turned out to be great for us. Didn’t miss anything on far sides and had a great view.

What can you not see from the orchestra?
