Tickets to shows on Tuesday after Tony's

Someone told me that you cannot get half price to tickets to shows on the Tuesday after the Tony Awards, even if they are not selling out. Is that true? I am bringing some students to New York for a week, and we want to see an extra show that is not included. Would you try at TKTS or get discount tickets through Playbill or TheaterMaina before we leave.

First time I saw The Light in the Piazza was Tuesday after last year's Tony Awards. That was with help of LCT's StudenTix program, where my friend and I got great orchestra seats (eighth row, third section).

It wasn't a full house that night, even though the musical got the most number of Tonys two nights back. But Victoria Clark had her well-deserved prolonged standing ovation, so as the wonderful cast and crew.

Hah, just sharing. I guess you shouldn't have the worst of times finding a good show to see on Tuesday night.
