Broadway Joe said: "Well I just got orchestra row f aisle seats for June. I lucked out and got a low queue number. I had my pc and two phones going. My pc was the low number and the phones were a ridiculous high numbers. There are a ton of dates in green. "

Thanks, any cheap tickets??

[characterism]

I had a very low queue number, but there are no tickets available that I saw that were less than the 199 per part price point.  All of the dates I looked at had those and above available.  Good luck!

I haven't seen anything below $199 so far, I've been browsing a bit cause I can still search the calender.

This reminds me of trying to get tickets to the Tommy concert in Cleveland last week but times 100 and on speed. Wishing good luck to everyone!

Have you checked to see if there were any single seats below $199?

[Broadway Joe]

Just an fyi for everyone I can still browse the calendar but if try to search for another set of tickets it says a message of...

We apologize. Your spot in line has expire. Once you enter the sure, your spot in line allows you to ship for one hour. You have either exceeded this time or a purchase was completed. To continue you must return to the queue and wait for another turn.



There looks like there's plenty of the more expensive tickets though. This makes all that stupid verified fan nonsense even more stupid cause almost every date is showing green.

I just checked a couple of dates for that and $165 was the cheapest I saw.

I'm  willing to pay the 199 per ticket in Nov,   I was going to try just for one ticket first and try for another later.

Do you think I can try for two at once and still be okay?

I am one of the rare people wiling to buy premiums because I only have two dates or I don't go at all (I never buy premiums, ever, so this is complete desperation) and I'm still waiting for 14,000 more people to go.  I cannot believe I'm essentially begging the TM gods to allow me to pay $1600 for two people to see this show.  I just hope they are even available by the time I'm in.  I'm almost embarrassed at how sucked in I've become. Not almost, completely.

Seems to me that the waiting room is working better than the Verified Fan nonsense. My progress bar is already halfway across.

Definitely looks like you can go for 2 at that price.

I thought I saw $165/part at some point but didn't bite. (I was searching for a pair)

Oh wait, I see a single $165/part on Halloween = seat orch X15

Interestingly, the people in line in front of me decreases much faster on my iPhone than my desktop computer.

[Andy51]

Wow, the queue has moved 20,000 spots in 30 minutes.  I'm not sure why I'm in it, since I don't really care that much about this play.  Yet, I'll probably end up buying premium tickets.  Abhorred at how readily I succumb to the herd instinct.

[Call_me_jorge]

This show has to have the biggest adavance ever, right???

[LesWickedly]

I'm in and I went to one of my dates with $165 being the cheapest and it tried giving me Row C in the balcony. Makes me feel a little better about how I paid $165 for Row V in the Orchestra.

[macnyc]

This pricing system is crazy!!!

[IdinaBellFoster]

The fact that I could see both parts of ANGELS IN AMERICA for $99 and the only seats left for this production are $199 each at the cheapest is disgusting. 

[kade.ivy]

Got tickets for May 27. First selected best "prime seats" ($199) and was given dress circle. Then my order couldn't be confirmed due to connectivity issues, so I went back in, bit the bullet for premiums, and ended with Orch Row K, seat 17. Super duper excited, even though I spent way too much money. Good luck to all! 

[LesWickedly]

So happy for you Kade! 

[vanbrig]

I finally got tickets for April! So relieved. The bar moves quicker than I expected, and so far there are still plenty of green dates for the early months.

To be fair, they did offer a fair amount of $20-40 (per part) tickets that were comparable to the $99 seats offered by Angels. Though the process for Potter was way more difficult.

For brief moments there were singles for $80, and I did see a Part 2 only for $20, but that was it. I think the line is going quickily because many people are seeing the price points left and getting out. 

[jkstheatrescene]

So yesterday, I did the presale.  The best I could do was a Sunday in early February 2019.  2 tickets.  Am I reading this thread correctly, that I could get tickets earlier at the same price point?  Then why bother with the pre-sale?

[Wick3]

I agree seat prices are a bit on the crazy side. I looked at a few dates in June since my friends will be here in town but sadly didn't see any in our price point.

I did look at where the $299 per part premium seats were and whoa.. Dress Circle row E seats 114-115 is premium!??!?!?!?!1 Seriously!??!?!?! Not even center orch. I'd understand if it's row A or B in dress circle/mezz but row E?!?! That's crazy! Total of over $600 per person for both parts.
