No Grey Gardens discounts?

Posted: 4/12/07 at 9:40am

I've been searching and can't seem to find any discounts for GG in April. I'm really looking forward to seeing it, but can they afford to not offer discounts?

I know. I was disappointed too. But, Christine Ebersole is back now and maybe they're hoping she can bring in more people with all the Tony buzz.
(Once the grosses for the week come out, maybe they'll do more. I personally can't believe there are no discounts for it.)

This week's grosses were dismal....they really need to offer discounts if they want people in the seats.

Grey Gardens just suffered an entire week without Ms. Ebersole, check the REAL grosses after this week.

But honestly, they should offer discount codes. Even with grosses less than 90%, some code should be offered, even if its only for weeknights, they need to get those butts in those seats.

You're telling me-I have gone many times (everyone here knows this) and IMO, more people would come if they offered discount codes. (besides, most people don't want to wait in line at TKTS. I know I don't. For the extra few bucks I'll take a discount.)
That said, I predict a new discount will be issued very soon. (The numbers weren't down that much without Christine Ebersole. She's definitely the draw, but I was amazed that the numbers weren't worse, to be honest.)

Yeah, I'm playing game, too, waiting for a GG discount code to pop up. I know that GG is at TKTS everyday, but, I prefer to buy my ticket ahead of time, with a discount code.

When you get to the window of TKTS to get your ticket, you can't pick and choose a seat....you get what they give you.

Here is the discount code which was on the GG discount flyer we received when we attended the Barnes and Noble off Broadway cd signing on January 11th.

In the small print on the bottom of the flyer, it says Offer may be revoked at any time.


GREAT SEATS ONLY $65
SAVE OVER 40% NOW THRU APRIL 29
Visit BroadwayOffers.com or call 212-947-8844
and use code GGBRNBL
or bring the physical handout to the box office

Hope this helps and it hasn't been revoked.

If new discounts appear anywhere, please post here or talkinbroadway.

Isn't it better just to get your tickets from TKTS? For about $55 dollars you can get great Orch seats. I find these codes annoying.

Last time I tried TKTS, all they had were obstructed seats. It's very uncertain as to where you'll be sitting, and you get no choice, you take what they give.

^ I've only gotten obstructed view seats from TKTS once from any show. Usually it's full view, and for between $50-$55 dolalrs you can't beat it. I'll be trying GG saturday, and I'll see what they have. I'm not picky about seats.

Thanks-
It hasn't been revoked as of now. It still works. Wish I had the physical flyer so I could go to box office and get a seat there.

Thanks for posting the current GG code. I'm aiming to see the show on Saturday, May 5th - matinee.

You just never know what you are going to get at TKTS. You can't stand there, like you can at the box office, and choose the best seat. They give you a ticket, and if you don't like the location.....next in line, please.

I don't mind paying a little extra, even at a discount, to get a good seat that I can choose from.

Hopefully, another GG code will pop up for May.
