Received an email this morning saying that people who subscribed should receive the first access code at 10am, general sale starts on July 26 at 10 am, previews begin March 18 for a limited run of 14 weeks.
Do you know when Streetcar was rumored for the Hudson? This is a 14 week run, per the email, so…there wouldn’t be time to get Streetcar in this season, but it could still be coming next summer maybe?

It's only seven years old, with terrific sight lines up to the last row in the balcony- and (aside from the latter part of the Merrily run) ticket prices are often quite reasonable
"Performances begin on Tuesday, March 18, 2025, and officially open on Sunday, April 6, 2025 for a strictly limited, 14-week-only engagement at Broadway’s Hudson Theatre."

I was surprised by the pricing on this. Figured there'd be a solid deal to get somewhere in the auditorium. I plan on seeing this, but I'm going to hold off for hopefully some cheaper options.

Whatever happened to lower presale ticket prices? Anyone remembers Merrily$149 tickets in dress circle and great $79 tickets for An enemy of the people? It seems to me presale prices are now for those who have a severe anxiety that they won't be able to buy any tickets at all after tix go on sale to general public, or those with no issue paying top dollar for prime seats. Even R&J dropped some tickets to $99 after all the presale craziness. I' haven't bought a single presale ticket for future shows. Most will be on TDF or TKTS booth.
Every producer has a different strategy for presales.
If the demand isn't there, the ticket price will of course be lowered. If the demand IS high, then the prices can be raised. There are no rules.
It's up to the ticketbuyer to make a bet on what they feel is going to be worth it. Jonas guarantees this sells well at a minimum, and a strong critical/WOM response will only grow that.
Compared to what Jonas Brothers fans might pay for a comparably-close seat at a concert, this is probably a steal.

I totally understand all that and fully agree with the supply/demand betting economics of ticket prices. However, it kind of defeats the whole purpose of presale. It's been always the opportunity to get great, more or less sensibly priced tickets that later on wound up being more expensive. And if a famous, everyone's favorite actor is attached, it makes hours spent on presale queue even more logical. A Doll's House and Mattress were the only shows when I exchanged for a better seat at the same price later on. Presales nowadays are more of a demand test, not a special, thrilling opportunity to be one of the first people getting a theater ticket. Just my opinion.

That's typically how it works unless it's celebrity casting. The way people were slobbering all over themselves when Nick was going to be in the live Jersey Boys event that went nowhere, they are counting on people paying these high prices in presale and even more when they go on sale to the general public. I'm happy this will be on a Broadway for the first time but I think they should have made a better choice for Jamie.

Might be just me but I think there are a lot of obstructed view seats in the orchestra.

Are presales for TSwift or Beyonce or the Jonas Bros lower-priced?
If a show is lucky in the sales department, ticket prices will never be lower than they are on day 1, as with MERRILY. And if not, they can always reduce prices (as the same producers & landlord have done with MATTRESS).
They're also going to be anticipating aggressive resellers, and Team Jonas is probably advising the producers (whether that advice is solicited or not). If the production sells mezz seats for $89 and then resellers put them on Stubhub for $300, that's $200 not going to the artists & people who actually put on the show.
