F*cking hate AMEX presales. Because I don't have one. So now I have to wait two weeks for the scraps the AMEX folks didn't pick up and immediately put on Stubhub.

There are plenty of free or inexpensive Amex cards out there? It's an easy solution. I also can't imagine this is going to have the crazy presale volume of Bette Midler or Denzel –– Hiddleston's big but not that big, and it's still a Pinter play.

I've used AMEX prepaid cards from the grocery store to participate in presales and it worked.

I bought two tickets via Amex for Aug 17th center orchestra. Since I'm also seeing Moulin Rouge 8/15 and Sea Wall/A Life 8/16, I'm pretty sure my friend will have theater burnout and won't want to go. I haven't even told her yet so it's quite possible that I'll be looking for a companion anyway. I'm not a Hiddleston stan but I do like Pinter and I've never seen this play.
I really like Daniel Craig but I really didn't like this play. I also really like Hiddleston and Cox, the Daredevil series was amazing, so I'm curious to see if I end up liking it this time around.
I just checked various dates on telecharge for August and September - the cheapest option is $89 in the side rear mezz. Sadly, it doesn't appear that there are any $25 tickets on sale. Maybe that will be the rush price?

I'm thinking rush or maybe they'll do a $25 limited promo when the box office opens like Frankie and Johnny did.

That's true, but for a Pinter play that feels VERY soon. That being said, hopefully it'll erase the memory of the last revival which was, to put it mildly, tepid."
The last engagement was a sellout because of the names attached with the production. Iamsure a key driver behind this production is the expectation that Hiddleston will sell at the box office the way he did in London. It will be interesting to see...I liked him very much in The Night Manager but, at least here, his fame is based mainly on the role of Loki, which has never even been the lead in a single movie.

That's true, but while Loki has never been a lead character in the MCU, it's important to note that he's a fan-favorite. People love the character, and they love Hiddleston's portrayal. He may not be a household name, but he's beloved by the MCU fandom (which, obviously, is quite large).
Hiddleston's character is a big part of the overall MCU, plus Loki is getting his own show on Disney+. Whether that'll translate to sales Im not so sure but I can definitely see this doing well. Apparently it was a standing room only hit in London, are we expecting something similar here? Not sure how much of a rush I should be in to grab tickets.

What's weird is Telecharge lists $25 tickets in both the orchestra and mezzanine, but once you click through, there is obviously nothing below $89. Anyone had luck in visiting the box office?
Got a mailer today. The code is for $69 & $109 ($59 & $99 for previews) tickets. Yet "tickets from $25" is printed on the mailer! I've spammed their social media channels to no response.
