There are seats set aside in the orchestra center section, second row for hearing and visually impaired. They are shown on the Ticketmaster seating chart and can be purchased online.
I sat near this area (not in those seats but adjacent) and they are excellent seats.
I was there for the show that the bandana was auctioned. It went for $600 (might have been $650) and there was a backstage tour offered as part of the deal.
Danny Burstein conducted the auction, and Aaron seemed surprised and a little embarrassed that someone would want it that badly.

People like this are definitely why we can’t have nice things and also makes it harder for those that truly need, seek and are granted accommodations.
Legal system manipulation that has gone on for decades. I also hope the judge is able and does award attorneys fees. There has to be some downside for people to reconsider such frivolous lawsuits.

After seeing Diana in La Jolla, I don’t think the reviews or word of mouth will be very good. Some standout performances and great costumes couldn’t make up for a weak book and forgettable scores.

Why is it ever ok to leave trash behind? You brought it in, so you are certainly capable of carrying it to a trash can after the show.

I first saw the show in 1995 and minus a couple of high school editions, only saw the original turntable version until the Hollywood Bowl production. I've seen the current tour twice and saw the most recent revival four times. I miss the turntable on a personal l

My, how "Christian" of you! LOL"
I never claimed to be Christian (or any organized religion). However, I don’t believe hate or discrimination is a true Christian value. I don’t believe it is a family value either.

I saw it in London before it came to Broadway and it was truly awful.
Disclaimer: for some reason, I thought it was going to be a spoof. When I realized they were going to play it completely straight up, it was not good. Honestly, I would have left at intermission, but my friend wanted to stay. She grew up on SNF (actually wore out one album and bought a second) and even she agrees it was bad, to this day.
Remembering sitting all the way through that gives me PTSD. The only s
Frankly I think these people are immoral and I wouldn't go to see it on principle..."
If it is immoral to set prices according to demand, then everyone who buys discounted tickets at TKTS or any other discount outlet is behaving immorally?
Seriously, unbunch your panties and don’t buy tickets but you sound extremely silly.
Too little too late on the apology. You’re sorry you got caught.

I’m in the minority here (and ignore me if you already bought the tickets) but I didn’t love DEH. I like the cast album and music much more than the production.
I rarely regret spending on tickets and this is one I regretted. It didn’t help that they were premium prices, but even if they weren’t, I would have regretted it.
The “loudness” of the set (not just audio) and push to be social media conscious was irritating to me. Again, I know I’m very alone on this opinion.
Fact is, once she filed this lawsuit, no one is ever going to hire her again, win or lose (and she should lose). She should probably pray on the idea of karma and repentance.
Saw this in La Jolla. Felt similarly to the way I felt when I saw Summer there previously. A lot of talent wasted on a poor book and, in this case, unremarkable score.
Unless there were a lot of upgrades to book and script, I wouldn’t recommend.

If there is a standby (there isn’t always), they automatically go on first. U/S are next after that if the S/B cannot go on or the production doesn’t have S/B.
dramamama611 said: "Its more up to the producers of each show, not the ticket sellers."
100% true but it is always more time consuming in Ticketmaster than Telecharge and often the first people to answer on Ticketmaster will just say no (keep asking for a supervisor).
I just successfully changed dates for Hadestown in November on Ticketmaster. Took two days, as they have to contact box office (Telecharge checks with you on hold). I was charged $1

You can also say you are going to the restaurant or meeting a guest at the bar.
Pippin said: "Yes. I was referring to the person above me.
I think right now people are used to super long runs for super blockbuster shows (mormon, Aladdin, Beautiful), but long runs like that are recent phenomena.
"
Really depends on how you define recent. A Chorus Line, CATS, Les Mis, even Rent doesn’t seem like “recent phenomena” to me and feels like a trend that opened the door for some of the other long runs you cite.
