Glad to see that these prices are relatively normal for a big star driven show. I suppose that's because of the theatre size. I still think they're overestimating demand for this show. It's going to be tough for a production like this sell 1700 seats for that long. But, I understand the ATG/Jujamcyn politics that are putting it there. Even being stuck with this theatre, they should've followed the Merrily playbook and announced as a limited run through the end of the year before eventually extending to July.

No, but that’s because SeatGeek is garbage."
Yeah, that's what I thought.

I also didn't see the option to purchase the cast album as I was buying tickets, but can confirm that a second email came a while later that allowed me to pre-order. Couldn't pass up the red vinyl...
Seat geek really is the worst. When I went to get tickets this morning no premium seats showed up for any dates. Thinking they were gone or already bought by scalpers, I got the closest I could in the Orchestra. Out of curiousity I checked again after my purchase, and now there are tons of premium seats for all dates.
I'm waiting to hear back from customer service to see if they'll let me exchange.

The Audience Rewards FAQ says "To earn ShowPoints for your ticket purchases, visit our Event Listing page. There you will see all of the shows participating with the Audience Rewards program with links to the authorized ticketing system."
Sunset is not on that listing page, so I assume no AR points for buying tickets. Best bet is to contact AR directly with your question.

"Did you purchase a ticket online for a show at a Jujamcyn Theatre (Al Hirschfeld, August Wilson, Eugene O'Neill, St. James, Walter Kerr)? You won't be asked for your Audience Rewards number during checkout, but we are working behind the scenes to add the order to your account.

Just a follow up that I did get an email later in the day to pre-order the album, which I dutifully did. But am I missing something or did I simply pre-order something that I could've just purchased in October with no benefit to buying early? I kind of assumed that there would be an early release date for those who purchased or some sort of digital download.
I suppose it was good for marketing though, since I would not have ever shelled out $777 for two tickets for something 7 months away... :) Last time I purchased in advance like this was the original 1994 production and I thought $200 was a lot at the time

No word on who, but the alternate will perform on Tuesdays starting after opening night. When you go to purchase tickets for those dates a message is on the page. I'm dying to know who the alternate will be.

The option to preorder the album online with tickets offered "PICK UP IN THEATRE" as the only option. I don't feel like trying to pack a vinyl and damaging it, so I am hoping to see a mail order option at some point. I'd like the limited red vinyl so I hope it doesn't sell out in preorder. I don't think there is any benefit to preorder other than possibly securing the red vinyl which is limited.
I was happy to get first row mezz tickets for $200. Those prices seemed high. If I remember correctly the St. James has a high stage so paying $500 to crane my neck doesn't seem like fun.

Thank you so much!! No tax and free shipping. Was able to get the red vinyl shipped.

I could see her in Sunset. Her voice sounds like it has the range, and you can see the acting there too - not an easy song to do simply with a piano and standing in one place
Am curious what happened with Rachel Tucker if she turned this down or what the plan is

She’s been pretty booked back to back since Sunset closed, but I can’t find anything announced that far out, so it’s still a possibility. It would be her fourth time on Broadway, IIRC.
