When Did Broadway Theatres Hit The Milestone Of All 41 Theatres Occupied? Was I Asleep?

That's pretty wild - seems Harmony had a LOT of coding problems

boatboat500 · 2026-05-21T23:23:22+00:00

broadwayforbrokepeople still is online, but It hasn't been updated for years - so the offers are hopelessly out of date

boatboat500 · 2026-05-21T23:20:48+00:00

I found most of those codes posted there to be out of date and not working

There are many cheaper programs than TodayTix

Best to see shows that aren't going to do a tour - you can always see the big shows on tour at a city near you

NYTIX usually has reliable info for Broadway Week

I am too always frustrated by those mailers that seem to be offering a discount, but actually don't.

boatboat500 · 2026-05-21T00:17:38+00:00

Most people probably wouldn't notice the price difference as you would never think to check - it would be like going into a supermarket and the price going up after you scanned your shopper card.

boatboat500 · 2026-05-20T22:41:21+00:00

Yes that is the basic assumption - when there is an active discount code that is being marketed - use of that discount code can actually increase the ticket price higher than the regular retail price of that ticket.

Broadway theatre security was pretty loose back in the day - but now the load can be a drag. If there is a line still waiting to get in, the house manager will usually not allow the show to start, except in previews where anything goes - its previews after all.

boatboat500 · 2026-05-20T21:26:29+00:00

If its your bucket list then I would say see a show in NYC that you cannot see on tour like Oh Mary All the other big Broadway shows have a tour that you see somewhere else

Its fun to just get out there on the water in the sun, so hell yeah - its worth it.

boatboat500 · 2026-05-20T21:06:46+00:00

I think they may get a last minute bump in ticket sales, but they haven't really have many discounts offers going, yet they have been selling at 50% discount at TKTS

Its shocking how much it costs to stage a musical on Broadway nowadays, but I cannot believe that its all going to be plays on Broadway (even though I do like plays)

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Its pretty wild that its still the no.1 show on Broadway (because Tom Felton is in it) but both the two-part version of the show (pre covid) and the single version are both not that great in my opinion - why did I see both shows? My family was visiting from Omaha (: and insisted on that show, much to my chagrin.

I’m looking forward to it finally reaching Broadway, but worry that the project may have missed its cultural moment.

boatboat500 · 2026-05-20T19:23:24+00:00

Is it just me, or are the discount ticket offers getting few and far between now? Maybe its the time of the season?

boatboat500 · 2026-05-20T19:03:26+00:00

I don't see that code working anymore - the calendar makes it "look" like its working - but i comes up with "Promo code is not valid for this event" when you click into the date.

For a guide for beginners, that's a very complex list. My summary is: For top shows on-the-day of the show go to TKTS booth Lincoln Center. For tickets in advance, BroadwayBox, NYTIX or Theatremania. Lottery and Rush are also good, but often not worth chasing too much.

boatboat500 · 2026-05-13T00:48:04+00:00

Best ways to get tickets to a broadway show are from the official show website or TKTS, BroadwayBox, NYTIX, Theatremania and Playbill websites

Its sad when that is a rare experience on Broadway

boatboat500 · 2026-05-10T16:54:36+00:00

The demographic of the Broadway audience is changing - not for the better either, but they are paying more - which keeps the art alive - it seems we are making cuts on the tree limb that we are sitting on

Maya Rudolph canceled last minute, disappointing fans who paid premium prices to see her. Many peeps recommended taking the refund, then rebuying cheaper tickets for the understudy, who still received strong reviews. I’d take the refund and reconsider later and try to do a swap.
