Reasonably Cheap Tickets for a Show Tonight?

Hi!  My 18-year old daughter and a friend paid their own way to NYC last night to see DEH (and loved it, of course), but their plane home tonight has been cancelled.  So, they have another night in the city before they (hopefully) fly out tomorrow.  Any quick ideas for last minute/reasonably priced tickets?  

I seem to recall the TKTS booths sell premium tickets for 50% off, so the prices are not actually a steal if you're trying to stick to a budget.  I would love to know if that's incorrect since I'm not up to date.

My daughter is pretty flexible about what she sees.  She has seen Hamilton, Hamlet at the Public, Oslo, The Humans, and the Great Comet and raved about all of them.  The balcony for Terms of My Surrender is sold out tonight or that would be my suggestion.

Any ideas?  GHD in the second to last row of the MEZZ for $79.50 plus fees?  I don't think that show has caught her eye so that's seem a bit high I think.  She'd be willing to see something off-Broadway as well.  Thanks in advance!

Great show, but I haven't seen the current cast in it. Would be great it if she posts her impressions.

Good solution.

 

And TKTS may sell Premium tix at 50% off, but they are known for their standard tickets at 50% (or some times 40 or 30%) off.  I've never been offered premium seats there.  At least not at half off premium pricing, only at half off standard pricing.
