Passport is a totally separate thing from regular TDF:
The Broadway Passport Series program began in 2021 thanks to a partnership between New York State, Broadway producers and TDF. It is designed for community and service organizations across the State that serve lower-income residents. Passport organization constituents can join this program for free and purchase $20 and $40 tickets to Broadway shows. In 2023, the program was extended by two years (expected end is December 2025) and expanded to Off-Broadway commercial productions. All organizations that qualify must be approved by the Empire State Development Corporation. Questions? Contact engagement@tdf.org.
Regular TDF tickets cost more and are open to a much much wider range of people (and I believe there is no geographical restriction but don't quote me on that) -- students, educators/school staff, arts workers, nonprofit workers, 30 and under, union members, retirees, individuals on disability, "workers eligible for overtime", veterans, freelancers, and clergy. It's such a vast group of people that they might as well open it up to anyone, especially since the deals aren't that great anymore ($63 for a Broadway show).
