We are coming up in the spring and a few shows will have their opening nights while we are there. I'm guessing tickets are usually given to press and actors, but does anyone know where they may sell extra tickets, or if that's possible? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

You just need to keep checking Telecharge or Ticketmaster - whomever sells the tickets. This can happen anywhere, but often only within a week or two of the date.

The theater size might give you some indication. The smaller the theater, the less likely they will have tickets for Opening Night.
But from what I heard from people who have been (I have friends who won If/Then ON tickets in a sweepstake) it's like any other performance, really. Not even sure they have a curtain call speech or anything. The only thing is probably that there will be celebrities in the audience, but if that's what you're after you can go to the red carpet beforehand. I did for OTTC last spring, it was just a bit of fun to see who all turned up.

It is not like the old days. Back than, the critics were there on opening night. Now you see a few shows available on TDF so it is not a big thing anymore. We used to love closing performances as there was more emotion there.
