I feel like they say that for every show... but probably get split orch/mezz half and half."
Yeah, it says seating may be in the mezz/balcony for all the shows but Come From Away (and Phantom too) specifically said in all caps ALL TDF SEATING IN MEZZ and then that wasn’t the case so I was pleasantly surprised. I guess it probably depends on the night too.

I think they do this for disclosure reasons. They want to make sure people know staircases are involved, because they cant ever guarantee orchestra seating.
On a separate note, we were seated in dead center rear Orchestra of Be More Chill tonight, but it was so tight/crowded, we moved before the show started to the extreme left orchestra, whole rows of which were entirely empty.

Had Orch Q118 (aisle seat) for Hillary & Clinton last week, Orch G12 for Hadestown last night, can't remember if I shared or not but Mezz F116 & 115 for Cher Show a few weeks ago.
Very pleased with the selection and seats recently. Seeing Beetlejuice tomorrow, we'll see where I see that from.

Fiddler on the Roof- In Yiddish- finally on TDF for a couple of dates.
Not happy that it’s not selling better but at least some, who need cheaper tickets in order to attend the theatre, will be able to see it.
It’s really good. Have seen it 4 times...so far.

I saw it pop up about a week and a half ago and it was gone so quickly. I am stalking praying for a chance but I have feeling it won't happen since those reviews came out.

I'm new to TDF and just have a couple of questions.
I often see shows with my husband and two teenage sons. So, we'll be buying four tickets when we get them. Does it make more sense to but then two at a time for the same show in hopes of getting better seats? Will I be allowed to make multiple purchases for the same show?
And, when do the new deals typically show up on the site? Is it random? Or a specific time on a specific day?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Sorry if these questions have already been asked, but there are over 1,800 messages and that's a lot to search through.

If you buy in sets of two, it’s possible to likely you’ll end up being separated. Most shows allow you to buy four right out of the gate. Plus, splitting the order could complicate the box office and possibly think you just made a duplicate order.
Regarding offerings, there is no alert system or rhyme or reason to whenever something pops up, it’s very random. I have noticed that clusters of shows will pop up Sunday night/Monday when shows are dark to allow purchase for the coming week

Every time I have done two orders for the same performance (always because later after I bought my ticket, someone wanted to join) we were seated together.

Just joined TDF the other day. Saw Hadestown on Friday night and hoping that it might pop up again this week.

Possible, but I doubt it. There are basically two shows this week (Mo and Tu). It opens wednesday (only one show that day and no tickets on sale to the public unless they paper extra tickets through TDF) and no show Thursday. With good reviews, I'd expect Friday to sell out.
I'd try the lottery.

Was just going to post this as well. Was hoping this was going to show up for the Weds Mat as I'll be in the city for my birthday. :)
