My New York Trip Dilemma

My New York trip plans have just gotten all screwed up. Now instead of Thursday night to Monday, it is going to be Friday to Sunday and the person I'm going with wants to be back in Ohio before 8:00 p.m. on Sunday. This means no Sunday matinee. I have tickets for Spamalot Friday night and DRS Saturday afternoon. My plan was to do StudentTix for Piazza on Saturday night and do the Spelling Bee lotto for Sunday. Now I am only left with Saturday night. What should I do?

I REALLY want to see Spelling Bee, but with the lotto there is no guarantee I will get the tickets (plus I don't know how crowded it usually is). Or should I just get the tickets for Piazza and forget about Spelling Bee. What is the smart decision?

As of today, I have not seen either show but studentix seems to be the safer bet just for the fact that it's a guaranteed good seat for a show which is recieving quite a lot of praise from people around here. At least with studentix, you ARE guarenteed to see something.

Yeah, likelihood of getting spelling bee lotto tickets is going to be hard, because a lot of people show up for that lottery, esp. on a Saturday Night.

Piazza is a great show, you may as well get the GUARANTEED ticket!

Thanks... I'm just so disappointed I won't get to see Spelling Bee. I was so looking forward to it. It's amazing how quickly plans get screwed up. **sigh**

If the show is sold out, however, you can get SRO tickets for Spelling Bee. But I guess your safest bet is doing StudentTix for Piazza.
