The Boys in the Band - standing room — Page 2

I went today and got the last SRO ticket which ended up being for the matinee around noon.

As mentioned by a previous user, the SRO view for this show is horrible. You cannot see anything that happens in the second level of the set. Full scenes happen up there, along with other moments. What bothered me most was that my ticket nor the box office attendant mentioned that the view was obstructed. Usually it's expected that for SRO the top of the stage will be slightly cut off, but in this case, it was half the stage. For $40, I shouldn't complain because it was still very worth it. Just a warning.

Thinking about trying to get standing room next Thursday. Will I have to line up beforehand or do you think I'll be alright if I just show up when the office opens

I did SRO for the Saturday evening performance on July 7. They actually didn't start selling standing until around 6:15p - the show hadn't yet gotten close enough to selling out when the box office opened at 10a. (As I mentioned elsewhere - I think on the TBITB rush thread - they said to come back at 4:30, then at 5, etc., until we formed a mini line around 6p. Keep in mind the week of the 4th is typically a light theater week, so our experience might not reflect other Saturdays... especially as we approach the closing.)

It's on TKTS today, and you can also look on telecharge to get an idea of how many seats are still available. They likely won't wait to 100% sell out before selling SRO, but I think they like to get pretty close... All this having been said, if I were going to try it again, I'd go when the box office opens and politely ask then if they're selling SRO - and not be surprised if they say to come back later.

Wasn't sure where else to ask this, but has anyone been monitoring Stubhub for tickets? Since there are still tickets available via BO and telecharge just wondering if the prices of the tickets on Stubhub are dropping close to showtime?

I got SRO tickets at 12:30 PM today (Thursday, July 26th). There were still tickets available on Telecharge, but not too many.

It's the last performance, and producers and the creative team tend to stand back there --- I wouldn't count on there being many spots available (if any).

20 SRO tix available for the evening show from what I heard. There were close to 50 people by 8:30.
