Anxiously awaiting a new batch of Spongebob tix to be added. Last date they had sold out last night. C'mon June 10th tix!!

I'll post if I see new dates added -- in case anyone cares!

I have a question about National Membership: I live permanently in California, but spend several months out of the year attending school in New York. However, I only have one more semester of school and haven’t a clue where I’ll be after that. It could be New York, or it could be elsewhere. In my situation, would I apply for National Membership ($20) or Regular Membership (currently $29)?

Had tickets to SpongeBob on May 24, they were fantastic. Mezzanine left, third row, but just a few seats from the center aisle. Couldn't have asked for a better spot.

Apply for what you qualify for now, then you can re-evaluate when it's time to re-new

Anyone attended Iceman in the last few weeks? I'm curious how the seats have been recently.

I care! I finally convinced various friends to go see it, and it disappears from TDF! If it's a reflection of better ticket sales for the show, I'm happy. 

ANGELS IN AMERICA (Millennium) has been added for Tony Sunday at 1 p.m., and new dates up for Perestroika as well.

Anyone know if Canadians are eligible for TDF? If so, would be amazing for me. I definitely live far enough away to get the national membership. Then again, I guess maybe my answer is right there... national (US).

Cant hurt to ask on here to ask if any Canadians managed to sneak though, perhaps via student membership? I have a ISIC card which I used to get Linctix.

I don't know if I want to renew. I basically haven't seen anything this year. Maybe it was just the weak season. Do you think Carousel will be up after the Tony's? If I took my parents to see Carousel, the three tickets would be worth another year but otherwise, I don't see much on the horizon. I feel like the online lotteries have taken the place of the more affordable tickets (at least for things I want to see).

Probably what you're not wanting to hear, but your TDF membership fee (and it is quite small in comparison to a lot of other things) goes to more than just discount tickets.  The benefit of the fee is you get access to discount tickets and there is so much more than just Bway shows.  There have been a lot of great off Bway shows listed this season.

[VintageSnarker]

@BuddyStarr There are usually a number of ways to get off-Broadway tickets. TDF rarely ends up being the best option.

I joined last year. Have used it more for off-Broadway shows. Will definitely renew. I like that it also offers concerts, dance, etc.

Spongebob just appeared again with 2 dates.

Thanks! Just saw. I was hoping for 6/10 but maybe we can make a weekday work!

Angels Part 2 tonight in orchestra B 1, 3. PHENOMENAL seats.

[Welvek]

Wow! Nice!

[Brad4815]

Saw Iceman Cometh Wednesday evening through TDF. Seats were orchestra right, row R. Very last row about 4 seats from the end. Not a terrible view for being so far back.

I'm curious as well. I just got TDF tickets for next Friday night, so I'll report back. I also noticed that the order specifies to come to the theater at least an hour before the show due to construction causing congestion around the theater. At other shows, I've been told not to pick up my TDF tickets till half an hour before the show, so I'm curious what others' experiences have been with Spongebob. Just trying to time out my day!"

Where were your seats? I just got tix for 6/13 -- so excited!

The first week of Head Over Heels is now available.

[Famebroadway2]

Thanks! Just grabbed tickets.

My understanding is that musicals are typically $47 on TDF...Head Over Heels is $49.50.  Anyone know why?  Not that $2.50 is a big deal...just curious....

I'm pretty sure it's because it's owned by Millennium & Copthorne Hotels and not Shubert or Nederlander

I have never been to BROADWAY BY THE YEARS. Grabbed a ticket for the next concert, Songs of 1988 and 2017. 27 bucks under concerts. Just looked and it is still up.

[quizking101]

CAROUSEL is up for Tuesday 6/12 and Wednesday 6/13 - 8pm both shows.

[ahhrealmonsters]

Has anyone done TDF for the American Ballet Theatre @ the Met? Where have the seats been? I'm generally fine sitting in the "nosebleeds" on Broadway, but the Met is HUGE. Thanks!
