Agreed! I wanted to be closer, but Row L was the best I could afford in the center orchestra. This whole run will be sold out by the end of the day for sure!"
I’d love to be proven wrong but the St James is a barn - and they lost NPH. I don’t think it will sell out the way people think it will.
I spent about $200 over two performances. One balcony and one orchestra.
Both were aisle seats which works for me.

Yes, the costumes for Cinderella’s family were an eyesore. Not because they were loud but because they were incongruous with the rest of the production. I hope the recasting of the Witch and Cinderella means we can also get better costumes for those characters as her outfit for the ball was too plain and Heather’s purple dress just seemed like a concert/recital outfit. I don’t mind Annie Golden’s suit as much if they fix these other, more prominent costumes.
Grabbed tickets for the first show! Row G of the mezz, doesn't seem too bad.
Wonder if they're saving the first row of the orch for rush or lottery?

If Sara Bareilles will be on Broadway, it will sell out for sure!
All right, tickets purchased for two shows in July. Is it too early to start praying for a revival cast album now?

Got 4 in the balcony and only charged $35 in service fees total ($8.75 each).
FYI, did some brief scanning and the first row of the balcony is just $88 incl fees (and it gets cheaper from there). So there should be no complaints about the price points for this production. Nice.

That was a lot easier than I thought. I entered the queue at 9:59 and was done by 10:05. I got Rear Center Orchestra this time. At City Center, I was seated far right Orchestra and couldn't see the scene where the baker's wife died but I saw everything else.

Maybe it's a percentage, then, of the tickets. I only got 2 at $199 each.

Sold out by the end of the day?
Unlikely.
The cheaper tickets probably.
I can't seem to find it in their press release, but does anyone know if the tickets are available at the St James box office right now? I'm not paying these insane service fees when I can walk over just a few blocks.

The view from the front mezz at the St. James is fabulous. One of my favorite mezzanines on Broadway.

I wasn't sure I wanted to see this since I saw it at City Center from the front row but there were some single seats in the Orch and a bunch in the Mezz for Opening Night. I grabbed one in the rear Orch. From first to worst!
Grabbed tix for early in the run (7/10) the first row after the break in the Mezz. We've sat there before.
Lord how I hate Seat Geek -- you can't just see what is available in each section - you have to keep referring to the side bar.

Just got two seats for third row mezzanine for the last weekend. My friend and I are literally going to fly in for the day to see this, and return home the next morning. Wasn’t planning on a NYC trip this summer, but this cast is too good to pass up!

I am wondering the same thing.

On the desktop site you can scroll in and you can see individual seats. Agreed though on mobile, the app sucks.

Will they only be selling on seatgeek?
Glad to see Lauren Mitchell is not continuing to Broadway either.

That is the official sales channel for Jujamcyn houses. I'm sure the in-person box office will open at some point, but for now I'll assume they're only selling online since it wasn't included in the press release. And they don't want an overwhelming crowd for day one of sales when this is going to sell just fine on its own.
Do we know when this begins rehearsals? It must be soon –– like possibly even next week.
