So let me get this straight. It's Sutton's last weekend, it's a holiday and you are complaining it's only Row U?

Be glad there's a seat and grab it, or we'll have to hear you complain for years how you missed seeing Sutton ONE MORE TIME...

I can't get anything for that weekend. So many shows are sold out and I was looking at discount codes and they all say not valid Feb 14-16th. Blahhh Wicked Raffle it is!

It might be a very tuff weekend to get a good show, or good seats since its Valentines day weekend and Monday is presidents day, so its a very busy holiday weekend and tickets have probably already been bought. I wouldnt take a chance to buy the tickets at TKTS then you might just flat out miss a great show.

Is this generation spoiled or what?

When I want to be at a particular performance, I take whatever is available. I just want to BE there, for Heaven's sake. I've STOOD through shows I really wanted to see (Paul Newman's OUR TOWN)because the performance is important to me, not the seat location. One of the most memorable performances I've ever seen was A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM at the Globe Theater in London. I stood through it as a "groundling" and loved every minute of it!

Remember, Shakespeare wrote "The play's the thing", not "The seat location's the thing!)

Now I'm starting to regret my travel plans to the city for Feb 13-16. To save money, I was just going to get my tickets from TKTS, cancellation lines, and student rush on shows. I cannot afford full price tickets with service charges in advance, and discounts are not available for this particular weekend. Will it be really difficult to see shows since it's such a popular weekend? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Trust me, you'll be able to purchase tickets at TKTS. They just one't be third row center.

I almost took advantage of one of the discounts for Millie (now kicking myself that I didn't). At first it was listed as 50% off for the 2/15 performance and then a couple of days later the ticket was only 20% off. If I can get to the city last minute I'll try for standing room.

Sutton's last performance should be a special one.
