Per the email I received today, cheaptix go on sale tomorrow (Oct 4). The specific time is not listed as to when they go on sale though.
”We're committed to making tickets available to every production via our CHEAPTIX initiative.

well I'm completely out of luck! This show was on the top of my Wish List for my trip in December, but the Im only in town for three nights and the only date that wasn't sold out had only 1 accessible seat left (atleast I didn't have to wait in a que)
For anyone who didn't get tickets, the production announced that the show has extended for a week, through Jan. 19. Also, there's still hope for cheap tickets. From the press release:
In addition, NYTW will also offer a limited number of $25 tickets to all other performances via a CHEAPTIX Digital Lottery in partnership with TodayTix. The lottery is offered in lieu of NYTW’s standard CHEAPTIX RUSH program to ensure that tickets are guaranteed at every performance.
I guess some people would prefer rush, because the digital lotteries can be so hard to win, but at least this is something.
Going after Xmas. Wonder if they will keep it to a 90 minute one act like the film or try to stretch it out? The film uses a lot of well known songs as well as the new songs written specifically for it. Getting rights to all those would be expensive so I'm guessing the real world hits get cut. I've never found the film's ending totally satisfying whenever I've watched it, so am interested in what they do. If I lived in NY I definitely would have bought that package where you get to attend rehearsals and tell them everything they're doing wrong.
