Tickets to Allegiance are on sale now to people who paid to be on that list they marketed. Tickets are on sale to Audience Rewards members this Monday and to the general public a few days after that.
The show schedule on telecharge and the ticket sales to people who paid to be on the presale list have an empty gap from Saturday December 26 - Saturday January 2. Is this an error? Are they going to try to sell special Holiday week tickets later for an extra premium? Are they going to go dark for a week for some other one week Holiday special to use the theatre? It happens to be the week I was planning on seeing the show lol.
Most discount/specials/promos/etc. have blackout dates that week being the holiday week which is one of the busiest weeks of the year on Broadway. That's pretty common, but I'm sure those dates will pop up when the general on-sale comes up.
I dont think this wait list was necessary, as I haven't heard many who are necessarily RUNNING to get their tickets to see this. But that's just my opinion. You should be alright waiting for the general on-sale to get tickets for that holiday week.
I didn't pay to join the presale list, so no harm no foul. I just happened to notice it while window shopping on telecharge and thought it was curious. Thanks for the explanation.
Just got my ticket. Two of my friends had paid the "early ticket" fee. I am really looking forward to it, and hope hope hope it's good. The parents of one of the friends I am going with met in a Japanese intern camp, her father joined the army to get out of the camp. Hard to believe this all happened.
I went to look at ticket prices because the Audience Rewards presale started today and it seems that the producers are charging $55-$79 for Balcony Seats weekdays and $65-$89 for Balcony Seats on weekends. Is it just me, or does anyone else think that that is absurd to sit in the Balcony of the Longacre?
I'd say that's pretty reasonable for a Balcony that provides a view as good as the Longacre does. Plus, these are preliminary months-in-advance prices. They'll sell at that price while they have nothing to lose and are trying to build an advance and once the show starts previews if that price range seems to hold no interest those will be the first to be discounted or changed, I bet.
