Questions re: tickets to "Beautiful"

Does TKTS ever have availability for "Beautiful", or are sales so hot that my question is altogether laughable?

Just in case it isn't altogether laughable (possibly because I'd only need one seat), do they ever discount the "premium" seats? I'm going to be in NYC in the next week (for five days) and was hoping to MAYBE catch it without paying an arm, a leg and a kidney. Any chance of this? Also, are there any other discount sources for tickets for this particular show?

Laughable.

There's standing room, but that's about it. I don't think Beautiful has been on TKTS since at least the Tonys.

Technically, this is a good thing for a show to be sold out consistently, since it means SRO is guaranteed, unlike shows that are almost-always-nearly-sold-out-but-not-quite, since a lot of time they don't release their tickets to TKTS, as they might be able to sell them all full price, and there may be no cheap way to attend. But you pretty much know you can stand for this one. Or wait until it isn't at 100+% attendance on a future trip.
