Next to Normal on TKTS question?

Hi All-

I am sorry to start a new thread. I have seen N2N on TKTS' list the last few weeks. I just wanted to know if anyone here have bought tickets to TKTS for N2N? How much? Seats? and how early I should be there for a Saturday matinee? or I should just buy it on discount for $56.00 since were coming from Boston and there's no guarantee that it will be there on Saturday at 1pm? Pls advise. Thank you




btw- I am planning to go to NYC next weekend ..just to see the show... I have no plans of seeing other show aside from this one. so pls advise on best strategy?

thanks jordan.. I guess so... the only thing is they dont release the good tickets yet till the last minute... I am getting ROW H 5 & 6- dont like those seats- way on the LEFT SIDE... I have seen 'eurydice' there... I think I sat there..but I moved towards middle bec. its not FULL....

How's the view on ROW H seats 5 & 6? Chris does not like to sit in the middle. He likes aisle seat? personal preference...

Yeah... might just buy it...bec. were just taking the bus...well leave 8:30 am and well be there at 12:30- eat lunch at Chinatown and see the show...and get a haircut (yup! my barber is in NYC ! lol! ) I get haircut everytime I go there...

Then well catch bus back at 6 pm and be home at 10 pm...might just buy broadwaybox discount tixs...I have not seen N2N on TDF too?

Should I buy tix right now before Brantley reviews's came out? it could go either way!

Thanks and definitely do not sit on the front bec. the set is 3 level?

yeah... I might get the tickets today... I think I will call them, instead of ordering online..somehow it does give you an option...to choose another seat..or am I missing it?

I love the songs...can't stop listening to it since this morning....and Chris have never been to 2ST and I keep telling him..how I love how the theater is soo bright then bfore the show starts.. the curtains closes on the big window and It sooo dark inside...so cool!

With this one, the side is fine. H should be fine J*.

Glory ~ I haven't seen "In the Heights" ~ don't really have a desire to based on the music I heard. So with that biased opinion, I'd say this one. but I'm sure there will be others who will disagree with me.

I sat in H6. It was a full view. I could see expressions and all parts of the 3-level set.

And you are right. N2N is not based on anything. It is very refreshing. I love original, dark musicals that don't insult my intelligence. Unfortunately, they are few and far between.

Glory, I sat there for N2N and while you may miss some action on the second level when they are further upstage, I didn't have any problems with the seat.

Ryan-You did not see Aaron Tveit? in NSMT's The Three Musketeers at Beverly, MA. oh! that was a painful musical to see.. I posted a report on that...Unfortunatley it got deleted together with my THE RITZ's report..when all those threads from August got deleted by accident.

To see Aaron onstage again was the only redeeming factor for me.

You'll be able to see everything just fine.

Yeah. I agree ^^^^

****

I am very excited to see the show specially we will be seeing this show with another poster friend here that I have not met yet. We made plans with him already..
Sooner or later.. I will ended up meeting everyone here ..lol!

Yeah.. between the show $56.00 discount and our bus fare $30.00 r/t ..it will cost us almost $90.00- full price of a ticket. Not bad!

Though we have to leave by 6 pm....

The show is good from any seat.

I would say that farther back is better because the set is a little too big for the space. It is three tiered and you want to be back a little bit to see it all.

Also I think it's a loud show, so further back is better.

We got ROW E...

I sat in row D, jay. You'll be fine. It's kind of the best of both worlds.
