If you do that just wait until you are in NYC and go to Times Square to theTKTS Discount Booths. TKTS Discount Booths offer tickets to Broadway and Off-Broadway musicals and plays at up to 50% off ON THE SAME DAY!!!!

QUOTE(starlagurl @ Dec 19 2008, 06:05 PM) Ha! I need one too! I found this one, it tells you where you can get super discounts on the tickets if you don't really care which one you see. www.tdf.org What are you thinking of seeing? I'm thinking about Avenue Q We're going to see Chicago - really looking forward to it. -------------------- In Search Of ........... "Begin doing what you want to do now.

Or is it mostly a crapshoot? -------------------- My most recent blog: A trip to Toronto that turned into a trip to Niagara

That's why if there is a specific show you want to see you need to get there early. -------------------- Living Well Is The Best Revenge Going Down South to North Carolina Book Reviews: http://www.ManOfLaBook.com

We'd made our minds up on which show in New York we definitely wanted to see and also wanted specific seats, so I booked. That reminds me, when I was looking I didn't realise the seating areas were named differently - in the UK - The Orchestra is literally where the Orchestra sit and play!! I was quite confused at first and thought - blimey thats a large area for the Orchestra Our seating areas are called Stalls = America Orchestra, Circle = America Front Mezzanine and Upper Circle = America Rear Mezzanine. -------------------- In Search Of ...........
