Topic: Broadway show tickets

[malcolmgb]

Does anyone have a reliable place to go for Broadway Show tickets?
We are going into Manhattan on Saturday and staying over night, we would like to go see a show, are there any ticket shops we can get tickets or do we have to visit every theatre to see what tickets are left.

I don't know but maybe this will be helpful.
Good luck!

There is a place in Times Square called TKTS - you can always get
cheap tickets day of or just before the show. I mean REALLY cheap.

+1 on TKTS. Stay away from Brokers. The shows are down right now, so your timing is good. The most expensive seat in a theater is the empty one, so they will discount heavily.

thanks for the help all, used TKTS, got to see Phantom of the Opera on Saturday after queueing for 90mins in the coldest conditions I have ever experienced. Good memories though, would have liked to gone to bike show sunday but still plenty of sightseeing to do.

Ahh, you're not gonna get off that easy....   We're all cheapasses around here, remember?

How much $$ did you save?

[malcolmgb]

the display said 50%, I think the 2 tickets were about $130
