Just wanted to bump up this thread because over the weekend I received an offer to sign up for an annual membership to Gold Club and get two tickets to Dead Poets Society. I had been a member of Gold Club, so maybe that's why I received it. I already purchased a $70 ticket to Dead Poets Society on my own, but I think it's a great offer. It says it's for new members only.
If you're interested I would email Scott at Gold Club and ask about it.
I'm looking to join one of the clubs, with more recent availability would you recommend Theatre Extras or Play By Play? It seems Gold Club has been going downhill so I may try that for a month to get an idea but looking for one to join for a year. Thanks

If you're OK with a somewhat more chaotic approach, I would sign up for Show Score. The benefit compared to these other clubs is that it's free. They have the same comps (but you pay a fee for each reservation) that the other clubs have. But they also do group ticket member nights. And they've started offering discount codes. I think there will be growing pains and it's difficult to jump on every offer with the way things are set up now (mostly emails) but again, it's free so it can't hurt.
I know people knock Gold Club. I'd say it helps to be the kind of person who is interested in the smaller plays that get announced but isn't usually motivated to buy a full price ticket. Those have been the more satisfying experiences for me that make the subscription worth it. Though over the past few months I haven't reserved tickets to that many things each month. I average about 3 reservations/month.
I'm disappointed with Play by Play. All of the Broadway tickets that have been offered are at a charge of $55-$75 per ticket. Not the usual $3 price. If I knew they were gonna charge that much per ticket I wound have NEVER JOINED.
Interesting, I post a similar question but did not get a reply. I saw that Play by Play had a great review before, but $55 to $75 a ticket, what are the advantage of membership then? If you get to 1/2 price ticket booth, the price is about $75. I saw this way " Beautiful: The Carole King" about $80 half price, as well as "Something Rotten", "Color Purple", but I thought the whole idea that you can see Broadway cheap if you join Play by Play. Any other experience?
Some clubs such as Show-Score (and a couple others) offer the flexibility to cancel or reschedule your tickets. I really appreciate their customer service as it shows they truly care about the customer.
