Tourist in new york

Hi,
I will be in new york from about 9pm tomorrow night. I am coming from the UK. I have already got Avenue Q tickets for Sunday night. Some of you probably saw my question a few days ago about Wicked returns and lottery.
The shows i want to see other than Avenue Q are Wicked, 42nd Street, Hairspray and Beauty and the Beast. I won't have time to see all of them, and i might only be able to see Avenue Q as i am only in New York till Tuesday afternoon.
So what i suppose i am asking is what is the best and quickest way to get tickets for those shows (at discounts). Go to TKTS? Go to the box office with a offer printed from playbill?

And one more Q about wicked cancelation (sorry). I will only be able to spend about $60 on a wicked ticket... do tickets such as the$55 and $50 tickets usual get returned or is it mostly the more expensive ones? Plus do i really have to spend hours quing in the cancealtion line?

Thanks

Hi,

How far in advance before the show do the offers at broadwaybox need to be bought.
For example could i try the wicked cancellation line or lottery and if i don't get in there go to see if there is avalability at another theatre with the broadway box offers?

thanks

Have fun at Q!

I doubt you'll find offers from broadwaybox.com for Wicked at the current time... You would want to purchase these a couple of days before hand and pick up at box office...

To broadwayguy2 and broadwaystar2b... do you know if any of the cast are away or regularly not appear on sunday eves?

thanks

yes, all cast members are scheduled to play all shows each week unless otherwised publicly noted.

i just want to see again, congrats on your baby Ann!

I don't know who you mean, Plum.
