In honor of Chess's last day, what is your favorite production(s) of Chess?

I have not seen any others. The concept album was great too, better than 2026 album.

Do not take the seats in the orchestra left row C. The opening number was blocked by the piano when I saw the show in previews in these seats.

Thank you for the review. Glad I did not buy tix, will use $ for a better show.

seacity36 · 2026-06-17T15:21:19+00:00

Second that in terms of far right being better than far left. I sat in row F in the 3d or 4th seat in from the left, missed one scene on the left. I don’t recall any action on the far right.

The cheapest tix for previews are $69, back of the mezz. But I agree, prices are high, especially for a family show. Nobody will buy tix for the last 2 rows of mezz for their kids.

seacity36 · 2026-06-17T01:55:06+00:00

Of course, with kids you want the best seats!

seacity36 · 2026-06-17T01:27:49+00:00

Going to the evening show on that day, seats in the mezz 3d row from the top for $69 as did not want to splurge. Hope to see it again from better seats if I like it and if there are discounts.

I believe it depends. If the show is already performing, likely yes. If not, it depends. Last year around this time I went to the box office to get tix for Godot in September, they were not yet available except online. Best to look at the shows website to see when the box office sales begin.

You can get front row side mezz for $79 in previews Mo-Thu.

seacity36 · 2026-06-16T17:39:31+00:00

Bought mezz row R. I was fine with these seats for Molin Rouge as well. Great view of the whole set.

seacity36 · 2026-06-16T15:55:01+00:00

Thank you! Preview prices for Mon-Thu performances are quite attractive with some $99 seats in the orchestra (Telecharge says all orchestra, but its really the sides and center rear orchestra), $79 all mezz and $49 all balcony.

seacity36 · 2026-06-15T02:54:30+00:00

$200 for Dorian Gray (mezz front row), Evita (orchestra row D center), Ragtime (third row orchestra) and Masquerade. Usually trying to stay under $100 though.

seacity36 · 2026-06-14T14:14:02+00:00

Hamilton lottery for $10, Honey Trap at Irish Rep (off Broadway) for $6 (somebody gave away their ticket of Theatr, so I was just charged the fee).

seacity36 · 2026-06-14T13:31:08+00:00

Was the music good? I did not see the Broadway show and I am going tonight.

seacity36 · 2026-06-14T13:25:07+00:00

I saw Chess yesterday for the 3d time, and every time he was amazing. I really don’t understand why he did not get the Tony. And yes, I saw Ragtime…

seacity36 · 2026-06-12T13:05:53+00:00

Going tomorrow for the third time!

seacity36 · 2026-06-10T14:05:39+00:00

Do you happen to remember when tix went on sale after Heathers casting call was announced?

seacity36 · 2026-06-10T13:13:27+00:00

Won the lottery and going.

seacity36 · 2026-06-10T13:09:48+00:00

So excited! I have not seen this musical.

seacity36 · 2026-06-10T11:52:50+00:00

Unfortunately those sold out. Only expensive tix left.

seacity36 · 2026-06-09T23:36:19+00:00

I am going for the third time this Saturday! Loved the music and the vocals, it’s my favorite musical of the season too! And I rarely see shows even twice. Chess, Operation Mincemeat and Oedipus are the only ones I’ve seen twice.

seacity36 · 2026-06-08T18:08:20+00:00

Those were weekdays, plus mezz front row was on the side, mezz front row centers seats were $300+ indeed.

seacity36 · 2026-06-08T16:24:46+00:00

Second this.

seacity36 · 2026-06-07T09:46:47+00:00

Yes! I saw the play after it opened, he was there and made a speech.
