Backpacks lately?  Apr 30 2018, 11:47:03 AM

dmwnc1959 said: "Great thread. I’m in the same situation for “The Band’s Visit” at the end of May where I’ll be coming from the airport and seeing the show before hotel check-in. I’ll also have a very small backpack as my overnight bag since I’m flying economy with no check-in luggage.

Maybe the OP can come back and also let us know if they have a coat check where I can leave my backpack. I’m sitting front row orchestra and r

Very encouraging responses!

I’m looking forward to traveling as light as possible so I don’t plan on having much in the bag anyway. Should be a breeze for security to search through.

Thanks, everyone!



Backpacks lately?  Apr 29 2018, 09:39:11 PM

I’ll be getting into town from the airport Saturday morning, hitting up 3 shows, and then heading home Sunday night. I’m planning on bringing a smallish backpack (very scrunchable under a seat) and no purse.

It seems that the info they send prior to shows lately have really discouraged backpacks more than before (or at least I’ve just been actually reading the emails lately). However, last weekend I did see someone at Three Tall Women with a backpack.

My specif


HELLO, DOLLY! Sets August 25 Closing Date; Bette Midler to Return July 17  Apr 28 2018, 10:32:21 AM

Anyone have insight into how annoying the aisle bar/rail is in Balcony A2?



Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Seating/Pricing Thread  Apr 28 2018, 08:00:58 AM

Just reporting back after seeing the show last weekend. We had Dress Right A 10-12. View and legroom were great. I was hoping the renovations would have made way for a bit wider seats but sadly not. I had inquired a while back about the bar height on the ledge and can indeed confirm that it does not get in the way at all (and I am short). I liked the location for a lot of the spectacle that I won't spoil here but it is a large theater and I think if I went back I would try to ge

I was just able to get Balc A 22 for $75 on July 21. I got a standby code at 1pm CT. I searched a variety of dates for about an hour on my desktop. So I guess there may still be hope for other singles? Good luck, everyone!

I am also interested in DCrow A reports. I probably won’t fuss around with other tickets if it’s a bit in the way but would be nice to know what I’m in for. We have DCR A 10-12. Thanks!

I have very similar seats, but opp

I was on standby. Got a code at around 1:15pm(CT). Purchased Dress Circle Row A Seats 10-12 for April 21. Each was $378 before a bajillion dollars in Ticketmaster fees (added about $55 more total). 

Edit: by each I mean $378 for both shows so $189 per part. 



HARRY POTTER AND THE CURSED CHILD to Take the Lyric Theatre in 2018  Oct 1 2017, 11:08:22 AM

Tried on the computer countless times. Went through on the first try when I tried on my phone. Confirmation page and email a minute later. 



BCEFA FLEA MARKET COLLECTORS UNITE!!  Sep 22 2017, 03:05:18 PM

VintageSnarker said: "Generallyeven dollars, @madela2. I can't remember ever buying something for $43.78 for example... especially with the lower-priced items. Bring small bills."

Thank you!!



BCEFA FLEA MARKET COLLECTORS UNITE!!  Sep 21 2017, 02:58:46 PM

Maybe dumb question...thanks in advance.

I’m planning on using cash. Are the transaction amounts even dollars usually or will I be getting a lot of coins/change back?

Very excited to see what the flea is like. We never go to NYC in September but we made it a priority this year. 

We are also seeing In & Of Itself matinee that day so hopefully that will leave us with plenty of time to browse. 



Puffs Off-Bway  Aug 20 2017, 06:26:45 PM

Anyone know how the view is from right and left mezzanine at Stage 5? I would imagine the seats closer to the stage are more obstructed. Are they movable chairs?



Anyone have any experience at either of these hotels?  Aug 17 2017, 08:10:50 PM

If you can hold off, I would suggest booking about 2 weeks out. In my experience, about a month before the prices can be at their highest. Or if you need to book now, make a cancellable reservation just in case you find something cheaper closer to the date. 

If you are traveling by yourself, I would also look into the citizenM.
When I visit I usually stay at the 44th St Intercontinental (you can easily find an IHG friends and family discount link) or the citizenM.



Bette Midler Hello, Dolly!  Jul 16 2017, 12:15:56 PM

Anybody know what font they are using in the logo for this production of Dolly?



Falsettos  Jul 11 2017, 10:23:02 PM

Seeing it tomorrow in WI :)

Only knew basic plot lines beforehand when I saw it in November and fell in love. Can't wait to sob all over again. They actually put this on a pretty good size screen at my theater instead of the smallest one so I'm pretty excited.

Much appreciated, thanks!

Anybody know where groundhog seats have been lately?

Also, if you have seen a show through tdf once before can you purchase that show again?



Hello Dolly Merchandise  Jun 19 2017, 09:42:50 PM

Do they have the navy Vandergelder hat at the theater? I don't recall seeing it.

Anyone recall if the photo is an accurate depiction?
The description says blue and white mesh trucker hat but it just looks like a normal hat to me in the photo.

Thanks, all! I will be on the lookout while I'm at the shows and see if the other box offices have any laying around.
