You're comparing apples and oranges. There's nothing hidden or mysterious about the Hamilton lottery; they're very up-front about it and the way it works is clearly explained on the show's website. Passing on the lottery is perhaps the closest that your "paying for peace of min
LxGstv said: "they never showed what section was designated as premium... we all made assumptions based on the traditional model, which obviously doesn’t apply here... I would say that there are premium tickets for this show, not premium sections... so much so that they sell tickets in the balcony for premium prices as well!"
There are people on this board who purchased specific seats for one price and then returned them, and the same seats then reappeared on T
LxGstv said: "I don’t understand the frustration of someone paying less than you... price points have been announced way before tickets went on sale... if you paid $299, you were also paying for peace of mind of having a ticket..."
Not so. The price points that were set for various locations in the house when the tickets went on sale were subsequently thrown out the window at random. I was not "paying for peace of mind", I was paying for a ticket
macnyc said: "They're spreading the cheap seats all around the theater, and they're also spreading the expensive seats all around.I wish they would just let us choose our seats from a chart like a normal production, so we can see what's available at that point in time and make an informed decision
This nonsense of releasing seats in dribs and drabs is just infuriating!"
^ This. I'm furious that I paid $299 and others are now getting neighbo
stlrod said: "Is anyone else frustrated by what clearly appears to be holding back tickets? I know it’s done but it seems to be excessive. I had purchased prime tickets for 5/26 in the mezzanine because they were the only ones available. Today, several sets in the center of the orchestra became available at $130 per part which were probably considered premium at one point."
It's maddening. I paid $299 apiece for a pair of center orchestra tickets, and now p

Will we know when they're about to happen, or does one need to know when to look where (like when you're sitting in the first 2-3 rows of Phantom and he appears at the top of the proscenium)?"
You wil definitely know."

To me, it looked like a kid's craft project that they found in a box in the garage, but to each his own!

TheCooler said: "a few responses got it correct. heres the answer:
almost every show, the producer (or whomever). sets aside some of the prime center orchestra seats and posts on Stubhub, often for 2-4x list price of ticket. then within a week of the show...sometimes same day. sometimes 3 days before, etc..it can vary. tickets are pulled off Stubhub and will hit the ticketmaster or telecharge map at usually the premium price of the ticket. this is a way for the show to jui

ErikJ972 said: "I sat second row center. Yes there was a few times I could see a wire and noticed some people who were supposed to be in "black out" briefly. But I was more impressed about the stuff I couldn't figure out how they did even though I was sitting so close.
It never took me out of the moment and I would definitely sit there again if I had the chance."
Mister Matt said: "The only thing I really hated about this production was the abstract Playbill art design. It looked like some sort of amateur attempt at Picasso, but it really didn't represent the story, staging or show at all."
I've never seen the Playbill, but I also think that the cover art for the Aspects of Love cast recording was the worst ever for an ALW show.

Up close you’ll be able to see facial expressions and I think that’s worth it, nomas and sams expressions are phenomenal. Also, everything described above happens everywhere. I have no idea how to do the spoiler thing so I’ll just say the effects happen everywhere, you’ll be able to see everything."
MrPeach said: "I’m relatively new at these boards. This is the first time I’ve been on the receiving end of a snarky comment. I probably should just delete the thread. Wasn’t trying to ruffle any feathers."
Unfortunately, your experience is typical around here. This board includes quite a few individuals who seem to have no other purpose than to fire off b*tchy retorts, so they can feel superior and oh-so-clever behind the safety firewall
