Standing Room Broadway - September 2022

Keep in mind that not every theatre is physically capable of selling SRO tix, and some shows that have both the space and the demand for SRO, still don't necessarily choose to sell it.

Plaza Suite probably could've sold SRO if the Hudson had the spots for it. Same with MJ (I don't think the Simon has SRO?)

Not sure what the situation with Six is - that theatre does have SRO spots, and I'd guess that they frequently sell out. Not sure if they actually sell SRO.

I wonder about Moulin Rouge too - their grosses have gone down a lot, but their capacity remains really strong. I saw that show via SRO pre-pandemic, so unless they suspended the policy for some reason, I'd guess that they still sell SRO sometimes.

^Definitely a good starting place, I agree. But take that list with a grain of salt, because it only includes SRO policies that the producers officially announce, which can vary significantly from what's actually happening "on the ground."

Let's publicize it here!

Yes, I'm aware of this - the Lunt-Fontanne doesn't sell SRO either. Before Hairspray moved into the Neil Simon, the producers and the Nederlanders presciently added seats to the center orchestra all the way to the back wall, eliminating standing room for behind center orchestra. But they continued to sell standing room for right and left rear orchestra. I'm not sure if any show since has sold well enough to be able to sell SRO.

Does anyone know how much the standing room is for Funny Girl? They posted a whole thing about it on social media but unless I'm blind I didn't see a price mentioned anywhere

Since broadwayforbrokepeople hasn't been updated for quite some time, I made a similar version and intend to keep it updated as best as I can.

I'm glad you like it! The blue dots are shows at an unusual schedule, like Monday show, Thursday matinee and Sunday evening show. Tbh I'm not sure how useful this weekly calendar is. I removed it for mobile view, but haven't done it for desktop view yet.

Btw, if you open it on mobile phone, those TodayTix links should be able to pull up the app for you, so you can enter the rush right away.
