Great deal. I'm seeing Footloose at a regional theatre here in Lancaster, PA for $17.76 tickets.

Awesome -- AMT, by any chance? I've seen a few shows there on vacation, and always been impressed with the theater and staff.

I don't know how hard it is to win the Fully Committed rush but it doesn't seem worth it for most of the other shows when you add on telecharge fees. All the new cast members are not going into Something Rotten until July 18th. Is the Crucible rush still pretty easy?

I'm guessing by rush you mean lottery...? There is no additional fee when you win Fully Committed lottery (unless they changed that)... I bought the ticket from the box office directly. And you can actually do rush (show up at box office day of) for both Fully Committed and The Crucible.
I've been shut out of The Crucible lottery despite trying nearly every day for the full run, so I picked up an advanced $40 ticket under this promo yesterday. Love there is no blackout dates. Pretty good although the seats aren't the best. And at the box office (around 6pm) people were still able to buy rush (day-of box office) tickets.

Thanks, mpkie. For some reason my fingers kept typing "rush" when my brain was thinking "lottery."

An American in Paris is also in on the $40 tickets for this weekend
Another great deal is that I got tickets for Incognito for $15.

Planning to use the discount code for The Crucible for a couple of weeks from now. Are side mezzanine good for this show? I was thinking of the outside side seat in Mezz Row A. You can't beat the price but is the view fine?

If you notice on The Crucible offer, it says "(Offer now thru 7/17; no blackout dates apply.) " I tried 7/14 yesterday and it actually was accepted. So use it now before they change their mind!

@z5, where did you find the INCOGNITO ticket deal that you mentioned? Thanks.

Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

The Walter Kerr mezzanine is stadium style seating, and the slope is intense.. I sat in Mezz Row A rightmost seat and I thought the view was fine, since you can see all the facial expressions despite obstruction of characters when they entered or stood far stage left. Skipping the first row mezz is probably a good idea. There were some guys behind me in row B even further to the right that kept saying that the view was not bad at all. I think those seats are also eligible. I was hoping I'd get lucky and be able to shift left but the mezz was packed. Definitely preferred house right to house left. Don't know about center rear mezzanine but I liked being closer.
And you're right - the deal is good for the entire remainder of the run, which is pretty sweet.

If you're an MTC 30 Under 30 member, there's a buy one get one free for $30 that came via email. Not sure if that's the same deal @z5 is referring to.

Thanks for that. I saw that Row F and back in the mezz is also $40 for most dates, but you're right about that steep mezzanine! I'd rather do side and more up close!

Yeah no worries. The one seat on house right Row A that's eligible has a raised bar/rail obstruction... so I did find myself trying to peek under it sometimes when the actors came to far stage left, but I didn't mind it too much. Just so you're aware!
And to clarify, the leg room situation is dire in mezz row A LOL. I'm only 5'0" and nearly never complain about leg room since I've come to expect it in Broadway houses, so you know it's serious. Fortunately I able to spread out just a wee bit more since it's the aisle seat.

My friend and I want to see Chicago with Jaime Camil but that appears to be the only show without a code attached and it just takes me to the main Telecharge page...anyone know what's up with that?

For Chicago, dates Jul 1, 2, or 3, there are $40 tix only in the mid mezzanine off to the side. No code required. Friend was interested but passed (ditto on that) since they didn't seem like good seats.

Enjoy! Last night, the entire cast was in - except for the boy that plays the older son Christian and one of the girl understudies took over (who was excellent). The cast was as always was amazing...and the audience was packed, which always adds to the total package.

Thank you so much IlanaKeller for posting this! I was looking at tickets for Sun July 3rd for Kinky Boots. My daughter really wants to see it, she loves the movie.
Just got tickets at a much better price with this discount than Theatermania and BroadwayBox.
This message board is the best.
