Is Hamilton cancellation line still insane?  Mar 9 2018, 12:23:56 AM

MISH2 said: "To answer your question - yes, you can. I did it today. Walked into the box office around 11:45 and bought 2 orchestra seats, row L, for tomorrow night at face value of $229 each."

OH!  So great to heat that this happened to you!  Miss the insanity of the old thread.  We were all on it!  Hope all has been well!

Hamilton Ticket Release via Ticketmaster Verified Fan  Jan 15 2018, 11:24:26 PM
After sifting through different weeknights (a lot of Saturdays had zero tickets available) I was able to buy tickets in the $199 range for my friends. There were a lot more $199 seats available this time around than in the August Verified Fan sale.

And while I was shopping... my code was texted to me at 10:02pm telling me to "Get Ready" that tickets would be on sale at 10am...yes I know!

Heading home no from the Upper West Side to the Lower East Side.  Let's see what I find.  I am the Hamilton fan and I know the folks who wanna see it don't want to pay over $200-300.  I doubt there's anything left in the rear mezz on any date.

I agree, that makes no sense. The email definitely made it clear that you would get a code.

I just go this email:

Verified Fan codes are tied to the Ticketmaster account, not like a regular presale access code.

Thank you all for your responses.  Been on the phone with Ticketmaster for about 20 minutes.  Tickets go on sale in 5 min and no code.  The person assisting me stated that the list of recipients isn't up and we've been waiting for a supervisor to swing on by to assist.

Good morning all,

Anyone who was pre-selected receive their access code? Pre-sell starts in 50 minutes and I didn't get mine yet. Just wondering if others are experiencing a delay.

Thanks for your input and good luck!


My friend met LMM in London bookstore  Dec 8 2017, 12:19:26 AM

My husband just told me last week that astronaut Scott Kelly posted that he randomly autographed a book at an airport store and I told him that I would gag if Lin this and I stumbled across it!  I literally said "imagine him just pulling out a copy of The Revolution to sign?"  I guess he got inspired!  LOL!  Great story!  Thanks for sharing!   Did your friend buy the book?  I so would have!



HAMILTON Principal Cast Replacements  Dec 8 2017, 12:13:02 AM

I am SO EXCITED!  And hope Michael will be at my March 2018 performance!  I recall only reading great things about his Hamilton portrayal and when watching Curb Your Enthusiasm last week, getting a little peek at his performance in the role really had me intrigued.  I truly hope I get to see him!  And can we have a new Eliza and Angelica!  Pretty Please!  



Sorry, another Hamilton seating question!  Oct 14 2017, 03:08:23 AM

I sat in row F seat 9 on my 6th trip to Hamilton and it was a great seat.  Just enough to see the staging HOWEVER, the front mezzanine DOES provide the views of the lighting used on the stage floor you that you can never get to see from the orchestra.  I think seeing the rotating floor and appreciating the lighting that looks like cobblestone, waving water, slats of wood just adds to the show.  Go see it twice!  From the mezz and the orch!  Problem solved!&n

This was a documentary about the Dancing Classrooms program in NYC public schools.  It was a wonderful way of bringing the arts to children!  The documentary was featured at the TriBeCa Film Festival and one of the schools featured in the movie was my niece's elementary school, just blocks away from th


United Palace & Other Uptown Theaters  Oct 14 2017, 02:24:03 AM

In all my years living in The Bronx and later when mom moved to Washington Heights, the Unitd Palace was just part of the neighborhood.  I learned more about it during a PBS special A Walk Up Broadway.  https://youtu.be/v9FYyUTeuk0 (scroll to 1:05:00)

I had the wonderful opportunity to see the interior twice.  Once for my niece's 8th grade graduation ten years ago, and a year ago next week when I took my late mom to see

I'm so sorry about your losses.  I lost my mother in May, where I had to let go and care for her a little less than I would have wanted to due to my own health issues.  I understand the peace that a musical can bring to an individual.  Theater Therapy has been very helpful for me where for 2 hrs, I forget the outside world and relive the emotions when I listen to a cast recording.  When seeing a show more than once, I enjoy looking around and seeing the audie

Porter, Sands returning to KINKY BOOTS  Sep 30 2017, 03:38:58 AM

I don't recall what code I used but I went Thursday night with a code that gave me a $107 ticket in row J seats 2 & 4 which was a great view.   I want to say I got the code through TheaterMania and bought the ticket a month in advance, 8/24.  Check the fine print on the code--are the prices not changing because it's a black out day of the week?  Trying to help!  Current code there is THM11



What shows are you seeing in 2018  Sep 30 2017, 03:31:57 AM
