Hamilton Cancellation Line

[broadwayfever]

I'm pretty sure he'll be performing in the rest of them. However, according to the security guards at the theater, very few cancellation tickets if any at all will be given out during this week due to friends and family members wanting to see the final shows throughout this week.

Is anyone from here currently in the line?

Cancellation tickets are ones whose credit cards were declined. How would cast members friends and family get them unless they were in the box office when they got cancelled.

There are many who have been sleeping overnight in the cancellation line.  I saw Hamilton yesterday and at least 10 people who were in front of me in the cancellation line chose to wait for tickets for Tuesday's show, or later.

The term "cancellation ticket" is a misnomer. I believe the tickets are house seats that are held back for VIPs and are then released to the cancellation line when they are not needed. There are no credit cards being declined at the last minute.

Cancellation line tickets consists of lottery tickets that are picked up, House seats, premium seats, regular seats, and standing room only tickets. The box office can hold onto those seats and sell them to whomever they want or give them away to whomever they want. In fact, they don't even have to sell it to them, they can simply give it to them by making them comp tickets. All the theater has to do is simply say that there will be no cancellation tickets for this week or a specific day just like when they did that for the filming days. Trust me when I tell you that the people in cancellation line are not a priority.... Family members and friends are.

I'm in line. I've been here since May 3rd (National Raspberry Popover Day) in order to be first in line to get get tickets on September 23 (National Great American Pot Pie Day) since I just have a feeling that's going to be a great show.

Sorry, that's when Benanti takes over for Eliza, and she'll be out that day.

Huh. It's lottery tickets that aren't claimed.

Of course it is...I just forgot to put the "not" before claimed but I'm sure most people figured out what I was saying.

The day of the filming, all of the left and right orchestra Row H, the left and right 1st box seats, 2 seats in each row center orch Row D & E and 3 seats in each row front mezzanine Row A & B were all occupied by cameras.  I would think they needed any and all house, premium and SRO tickets to relocate displaced patrons from seats they purchased.

"THIS  IS  HILARIOUS!!!!!!!  I swear, I saw one similar to this but it was a night shot and it just looked like a morgue!  Waiting to identify your loved one in the Hamilton line!

 

[Wick3]

That photo was hilarious I'll admit!

Not sure if anyone uses the hotel tonight app but I looked up times sq area and the Paramount hotel is only $99 for tonight. This is the hotel that's right in front of Les Miserables on the same street as Hamilton.

Since it will be raining hard tonight, hopefully some people on the line will take advantage of this offer.

 That's a great price for nyc.

How's it going everyone?? Any updates on the random picking or is that still in effect??

Yep, just like they're going to need those extra seats for Lin's friends and family members.

Apparently Daveed and Leslie are out tonight. I almost bought StubHub tickets but luckily someone else got them before I did. Anyone know why they would be out tonight?

Can't speak to Leslie's absence but I saw on Daveed's Instagram that he was flying somewhere on a trip with his brother after (I think) Saturday night's show. So I guess he has some scheduled time off.

My wife and son are at the show tonight and at intermission she told me that Daveed and Leslie's understudies are amazing. Zero complaints about them not being in the show. 

Also, my son got a picture with Chris Jackson about an hour before the show. 

 

[CercleRouge]

This is stressing me out, lol. I'm pretty determined to see the show tomorrow.
