TheaterMania Gold Club, Audience Extras, Play By Play

[Golenboybway]

what broadway shows have been on Play-by-Play lately?

[Mr Roxy]

Honeymoon In Vegas

The Last Ship

[Mr Roxy]

Philly

PM someone else for the info you want

[Phillypinto]

1. Do they ask to see your id when you pick up the tickets?

2. Are the seats all over the place?

3. Do shows that are selling well ever appear on one of these sights just because?

[HogansHero]

1. They can but I don't think most do.

2. Yes

3. Not just because, but yes. Usually because of some "off" reason-certain holidays, bad weather, major events that keep people away from the theatre, a last minute cancelled theatre party, wed, matinees for shows that don't appeal to that crowd etc.  The best chances for the best shows are very early previews which is why those in the know have an advantage. 

[Phillypinto]

yessssssssss I just learned about this!!!!! I wonder which ones are the best. I have one of them right now

[Phillypinto]

do people share usernames and passwords? haha

[Braniff Forever]

So would theater mania Goldberg likely to have FUN HOME on either on July 7, 18, or 21? 

[HogansHero]

Braniff. No. Why would it? The show is selling out, and no papering service is going to get tickets to a sold out show. Please. 

[Mr Roxy]

Nope.

[Braniff Forever]

Hey Hogan, it's just a question. Thanks for your fantastic input! 

[LightsOut90]

the site which can't be named is WillCallClub.com

[Phillypinto]

lol thanks LightsOut, somebody PM'd me already. Even though theres booty shows up there right now lol

I wonder if Gold Club is better

[ljay889]

Yes, Philly, please join Gold Club!!

[Phillypinto]

Are you being serious or sarcastic? Why so enthusiastic lol

[Mr Roxy]

I second that . Gold Club is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

[HogansHero]

Pinto, join Gold Club by the month first which is cheap, and see if you find what you are looking for. Or join will call which is cheap for a whole year. Or both. Or play by play, or audiences extra etc etc etc. Or do nothing.

Don't expect a lot of broadway shows on any papering site, and don't expect consistency. And expect that when a show is on one it is probably on the others. Although not always, but again there is no consistency. And try to expand your horizons and go see something off or off off broadway. that's where much of the best stuff is anyway. or go to the opera, or a concert, etc etc etc

If you read between the lines of the posts above, your intransigence is driving some people crazy.

[Ado Annie D'Ysquith]

Confession: I had to look up the word "intransigence."

[HogansHero]

Confession: I meant indecisiveness. lol

[neonlightsxo]

"yessssssssss I just learned about this!!!!! "

Yet you claim to be an insider.

[ClydeBarrow]

"do people share usernames and passwords? haha"

 

[Phillypinto]

lmfaoo

[neonlightsxo]

Philly. It is not at all a secret. Which is how we know you are not an insider.

[Phillypinto]

I am an insider, plus i see lots of shows for free as I know people and get comped or go with a tony voter friend :) so suck it neonnnnnn

[Mr Roxy]

Just sent Theatermania an e mail to cancel my membership when it expires in mid August. I hardly used it so it was crazy to renew. Maybe in a year or so I will try again. Maybe it will have improved & maybe not.

The pity is it used to be so good.

[Ericg2]

I agree gold club used to be very good (maybe 2 years ago), but it now isn't worth it because I have a membership to its competitor
