Amen, sis.

I'm really surprised to see this being offered from Disney so early in the run.

The advance must be low.

I was shocked to see this on TKTS a week or so ago. I thought that this was selling out most of the summer. However, I guess I am wrong on that one.

Their capacity is almost at 100% every week, yet it is not hard to get (reasonably priced) tickets.

You guys are probably right though. Something is probably up. Obviously, if they could do full-price only, they would.

It popped up on TKTS already? With the tourist season ending and show starting, I'm not surprised that even Disney suffers from lower ticket sales. Or maybe word spread that the show isn't worth spending full price on...

The first clue that this show was headed down the same road as TARZAN were the reviews. The second clue was that they began offering student rush tickets. And now the third is the release of discount codes early on in the run.

Well, Aida offered student rush and ran for four years. But it wasn't based on a Disney movie, so I wonder if that is the difference.

They are probably just laying out some padding for the slow months.

I honestly don't think that student rush is the thing that is hurting ticket sales for this show.

It's not like they have a section in the audience reserved for student rush tickets. They sell whatever they don't sell at student rush price. So, I am sure that they would rather get something small for a seat then have it go unused and get nothing.

That's not my point, Winston.

I mean they wouldn't have put a student rush policy into effect in the first place if they were selling enough regular priced tickets in advance.

THE LION KING has never offered a student rush policy, because they don't need to. Their advance sales are excellent, and they don't need to discount any tickets for anyone in order to fill the seats.

I saw this on TKTS a few weeks back too, discount was 25%

I also got a fantastic student rush ticket for this past Saturday's matinee around 12:30 - Row G, 4 seats off aisle. They had some for the evening too but the box office person said the seats for matinee were better.

Just another reason to believe the Fall is going to be awful on Broadway. The recession is hitting big. I'll bet there will be more closings than we think.
