"I would think Thanksgiving or Christmas would be big days for show. It seems like a nice tradition to go see a Broadway show on Christmas night or something."
Most shows are dark on those days, so the poster who implied that they couldn't fill the houses on those days is being ignorant. The weeks surrounding those holidays, however, are the biggest weeks on Broadway, and almost every show is at capacity. Even for the few shows that perform on those holidays are full.
im really upset theres no performance thanksgving night but my question is, when i arrive in the city thanksgiving weekend, do any of the shows offer discounts or is thie a big week for sold out performances and very expensive tickets, im asking b/c i REALLY wanna see little mermain]d
Is anyone a member of one of the papering companies? I just looked up the play by play website and saw it's $99 annually. What kind of opportunities are there to see shows? And what shows tend to be on there? Mostly plays or musicals or...?
The papering sites are only good if you go to the theater more than, say, once a week. It's mostly off and off-off Broadway, with the occasional Broadway show thrown in. If that's your thing, great.
But remember, it's only worth the $$ if you're a very frequent theatergoer...and can obsessively recheck the website every two seconds to see what popped up.
