XanadU on-stage seating question.

Posted: 8/7/07 at 11:14pm

I'm so sorry to post a thread like this, but I need to know. When you buy on-stage seats, do you just sit wherever on-stage you please or do they assign you seats? I want to know because if I do go, I want to know if I want to get there early to get seats to the left or right (I believe they have a better view than directly in the back, no?).

Thank you so much.

Get there early and sit on the sides if you can cos it's better there. I cannot stress enough about early arrival! They come up and it's very close and it's basically AWESOME!! Have fun!

Thank you. If I do go, I'll need to pick my tix up at the box office because they won't get here in time. So, I just bring the order confirmation to the box office?

How do you get the onstage tickets? Presale or day of show?

They are selling too well to buy them "day of" right now-- I would get them at least a week ahead, at the box office, or Telecharge (if you dont mind the surcharges)

The order confirmation isn't as important as bringing the credit or debit card you bought them with. That said, I'm bringing both on the 25th.:)

I have a question: I will be seeing the 8:00 pm show on Friday- when should I schedule the train to leave that night?

Does anyone know? 10:00-11:00?

I saw the 8:00 show on Thursday. It got out about 9:40 or so. We got a couple of autographs and got to Grand Central around 10:15. If you don't do autographs, you could probably make it by 10.

Thank you- I'm going to Penn Station.

Oh sorry. I walked by Penn Station before the show. I think it takes about 20-30 minutes to get there from Helen Hayes Theatre, but I'm not positive. You should still be fine by 10:30 or so, I'd think. Have fun :)

It doesn't seem that there are any trains leaving around that time...

Are there seriously no trains leaving after 5 pm?

BroadwayE2: Are you taking a LIRR train?

And the Helen Hayes is on 44th (between 8th and Broadway?), I believe. It shouldn't take more than ten to fifteen minutes to get there from Penn (and vice versa) if you take 8th.

I was taking an amtrak train. Oh my god- I have no way to get from New York to Boston after the show. Holy ****.

Is there a bus you could take? A Greyhound, maybe? I'm not sure how the bus system works really, as I'm a train person, but I have a few friends from Boston who will take the bus to and from Manhattan every so often.

Its been my experience that buses like Greyhound have later runs than amtrak does when I come up to the city from DC. I assume its the same for Boston.

Is there ANY train that will go from NY to Boston at 10-11? Also, is there a bus stop right in the theatre district?

OK, the bus gets in at Boston at 4 AM! I live in New Hampshireand I need to be able to get from Boston to New Hampshire. Does anyone have any ideas?
