Just wondering if anyone has ever had any luck with the cancellation line?? If not, does anyone know the odds of getting tickets if you are one of the first people on line. I'm planning to go on Saturday afternoon and just was wondering what my odds are.

Thanks so much all!

When I went last month, the line of people hoping for cancelled tickets was huge, but I did see people getting tickets. If you're the first in line, you should be ok. Also, I'm sure there are scalpers, if you want to take the chance on marked-up tickets.

thanks so much. I still don't know if i wanna risk the chance of waiting on line and not getting into it, or just going to get tickets to another show. Does Spamalot set aside tickets each day for cancellation like some other shows do ? What does everyone think i should do??

THANKS AGAIN

No shows set aside cancellation tickets. What happens is unpurchased house seats don't get realeased until cancellation tickets begin being sold...

It was huge. And there were scalpers.

Get there early - I would say 2 hrs...

Does anyone know what time they start releasing the cancellation tickets?

It's ok.

I have never done it at Spamalot.

I have at Wicked and got row G. I went for the lotto, lost, and since my friend and I didn't go for the cheap tickets, just for seats, we hopped on the cancellation line (about 2 hrs before the show). Waited maybe an hour until we got tickets. The people after us waited maybe 20 mins after us. My friend and I were first in line.

FOAntic was behind us.

Of course, Spamalot's door is outside, to the right of the main door.

Thanks again!

I'm sure they must have seats.

If worse came to worse, you may get bad seats, but you can run to tkts.

I think I have gone about 25 mins before The Producers to tkts witha friend and we got tickets.

SPAMALOT is is not on TKTS at this point -- maybe in a couple of years (like the PRODUCERS).

If you can't see Spamalot, go see Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. They have 1/2 price at TKTS.
