Hair tix... HELP!!!!#1

Does anyone know where I can find cheap tickets for Hair in NYC? I get a discount from my job but the seat selection is subpar.

You can try the TKTS booth, but it's not always guaranteed they'll have tickets. Also try Broadwaybox.com

What if you find good cheap seats but you find out after there's no interaction in your seat?

Is it really 28 seats??

The boxes seem SO small to me.

I agree with Namo. This IS all that matters. Go for partial view because you get Swenson's schlong in your face.

Well at least they know ONE thing won't be partial view...

Exactly. Besides, the only reason I went to Hair is so Caissie Levy will sit in my lap.

I really don't think there are *bad* seats in this theater. I never sat in the boxes, but I have been in the orchestra and the mezz. I prefer the orchestra because of leg room, otherwise it is no big deal. Whatever discount tix are being offered to you...take them! Cast interaction or not, it is a great show.

I've sat in the boxes twice in this theater for previous shows. For Sweet Charity, the only obstruction was in the elevator scene, and in the Wedding Singer, there was no problem at all (other than the show itself).

what about rush tickets? Does anyone know if they offer those? how exactly does that work? I'm a novice to these things as you can tell.

Hair doesn't offer rush tickets just lotto SRO & cheap mezz

re: Hair tix... HELP!!!!#15

And SRO is only offered if the show is otherwise sold out.

so how does the lotto work? do you just show up at the appointed time to put your name down and you wait until they draw the names or if you leave do they contact you? if you're going with someone do they accept the names together or is it a everyman for himself deal?

re: Hair tix... HELP!!!!#18

No, you have to stay for the drawing. If you aren't there when your name is called, they move on to the next slip. You enter your name and the number of tickets you want (1 or 2). So if you go with someone, you both enter your names separately, but you both put down that you want 2 tickets, so if one of you wins, you both get in.

Personally, if you want to see the show so badly, I wouldn't turn down any seat offer. Especially for a show like this, which is popular. I learned this the hard way with another show a couple of weeks ago. I didn't want to do standing room, so I went to TKTS, and I paid about $60 more and I couldn't see very well.

If it were up to me I'd take what I could get however I was going to go with my mom and to say it in a nice way, she's prissy about where in the theatre she sits. kinda a pain in the ass but unavoidable.
