Looking for TDF opinions

Posted: 12/21/18 at 5:45pm

I'm planning a NY trip in 2 weeks, and two of the shows on my list are: The Prom and Choir Boy. Im a TDF member and both shows are consistently listed...but the offerings for both stop about a week before we're going. (Jan 12)

1. How have seats been for either of these shows and

2. Should I wait for another week before buying regularly discounted tix?

I realize no one can guarantee anything, just looking for advice for those that often use TDF.

TIA

The Prom has pretty much been on TDF only on weeknights, so if you are planning to go on a weekend you may want to buy tix in advance.

If you or the person attending with you is under 35 yrs old you can sign up for $30 under 35 tickets. You can pick them on telecharge.

My son (coming with me) IS under 35. If the account is under HIS name (which I gather it must be) can I still be the one that purchases the tix (my credit card)?

As long as it is his account and under 35 you’ll be just fine. My friend, who is over 35, purchased our tickets to The Little Foxes under my account and we had no issue.

Check Audience Rewards, theres a few (very few) tickets for Choir Boy that will just cost you points.

TodayTix offers rush tickets for Choir Boy beginning at 10am day of performance for $30 per person. They still had tickets available at 10:20am this morning. Rush is an option but does not guarantee a ticket.

So, it took nearly a week (due to the Holiday, I'm sure) I finally got my son's 30 under 35 account confirmed. Immediately checked for tix for Choir Boy for the only spot we had available and KA-CHING! First row of the mezz, our favorite place to sit! I KNOW those tix weren't available using the discount code!

Thanks for all the info, and esp the tip for this!

Hey Im highjacking this (hope you dont mind) so I dont have to make a new thread. Im visiting NYC for my normal winter trip, and I just found out Ill be staying for work an extra couple weeks, so I was planning on seeing what lotteries and stuff I could pick up.

Other than the TKTS booth and TodayTix is there any good way to get cheap last minute tickets? Ive never rushed a show, but it just seems like you show up at the BO at open right? Is it worth it to look for cheap seats at the BO? I remember seeing someone say they got cheap Harry Potter tickets that way

Broadway for Broke People dot com is a good source for rush and lottery info.

Yeah I went there, I plan on entering all the lotteries while I’m there, just didn’t know if there were other ways I may not be aware of

For rush, technically yes you would show up at the box office when it opens, but they normally only have a limited number of tickets so depending on how popular a show is, you might want to show up anywhere between 30 minutes to a couple hours before opening (you can look up rush reports on bww for a specific show to see how early you might want to show up), though keep in mind that not every show offers rush.

If you're interested in Harry Potter, while they don't have rush, I've gotten tickets from the box office that definitely weren't listed online ($40 per part in the balcony or $80 per part in box seats), though this was a couple of weeks prior to the show date rather than the same day.

And I forgot to mention: NO SERVICE FEES with 30 under 35! Wow, what a pleasant suprise!
