Bringing a few teens to NYC and I would like to get them some rush tickets to a Bway show. Are there any pretty easy to get without going at 7 am? Not looking for Wicked or Hamilton, just a fun musical and relatively inexpensive. Less than $60 ea?
I know about TKTS, but my last 2 times buying there was about $80.
I rushed BANDSTAND last Wednesday, and I arrived at the theatre at 10:45 a.m. I got the last $35 rush ticket for the matinee, but they still had some available for the evening. I really enjoyed the show. It's a real crowd-pleaser, and I think teens would enjoy it.
Can also always try Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and School of Rock, which are about 35 or 40 each.
My definite recommendation, for teens especially is Groundhog Day, really loved that show. Theres also a great discount code now offering good seats for $50, there are also the digital lottery and rush options. GDH is my #1 recommendation.
It's GHDGHD1. But I think it only goes through Saturday. I recommend entering the lotto for the days you'll be there. It's easy to win and if you don't they send a lotto loser discount code.
There are also codes on Broadwaybox and Theatremania. I'd try them all to see which gets the best seats.
