Little Shop of Horrors question

Hi, so since it's official that Christian Borle is not in the Into the Woods revival; has anyone heard anything about when his last expected performance is in Little Shop? (I am planning on going with a friend to see the show August 6th and hoping he's still in the cast.) (Also Telecharge has him listed to come back next week) Thanks!!

How bad is row A seats 2 and 4 all the way on the side?  Seems like my only option on a Jeremy Jordan night.

You will be fine.  Thats where I sat.  It is up close. And the stoop is on that side.  But it is not obstructed.  You are definitely on the side.. but you will feel like you have your own private show going on.  Enjoy.

They have jacked up the prices for Jeremy Jordan.  And he is selling very well.

He is so great in this show and he is definitely a name so I think Gatsby will sell incredibly well, too.

Looking at available seats post-Jeremy, I've noticed that virtually every show that I've checked has the same 12 seats grayed out (Rows N, P, Q Seats 105-108.) Anyone know if these are seats allocated to the lottery? Something else?

I know that the lottery seats are B, C, D, seats 6-8

It could be seats allocated for TodayTix?

Probably house seats? Or lottery given the location

Those wouldn't be house seat locations --possibly a few are lottery, but I think some of those are the seats taken out because that's where the sound board and the "voice" of Audrey Is located.

First of all, my apologies for giving the correct rows but the wrong seat numbers. It's rows N, P, Q, but the seats are 105-108, center orchestra, not side. There are two rows of seats behind those grayed out seats, so that's highly unlikely to be the sound board location (which I think is most likely located in the dead spaces behind the last row of seats on either the left or right side.) Also arguing against the sound board is that I found some shows at the end of August where the grayed out seats are only one or two rows, and we know the sound board can't expand or compress as needed.  

It's a puzzlement...

TodayTix makes a lot of sense. The seats I asked about are nominally the same cost on either Telecharge or TT. And given that you posted that the lottery seats are located elsewhere, that knocks out the idea that the 12 seats in center orch rows N,P,Q are lottery. Thanks.

It is astonishing to me that all that is left  on Jeremy nights are the $250 premium tickets.  And they seem to be flying as well.  Any chance he will extend?

Some of those could be for Audience Rewards redemptions? I'm not sure how many tickets they allocate per show because redemptions are done via phone.

I guess it's possible, but I'm seeing the same seats grayed out on Saturdays, and I was told by the Audience Rewards phone rep that they don't get Saturday tix for Little Shop.

So I thought I could catch Jeremy in this by doing the TKTS booth.  But seeing to as any of the dates I can go are either sold out or only available via $250 prime seats; I think I am going to skip it. $250 for Little Shop is beyond outrageous and greedy. SHAME.

After Little Shop he starts The Great Gatsby at Paper Mill Playhouse. I doubt he’ll extend but perhaps he’ll return again

I finally had an open afternoon in August so my plan was to see Little Shop again. I haven’t seen it since Feb 2020 so I’ve been overdue for a return trip. I’ll wait for ticket prices to drop or grab a last minute one from StubHub.

Hey if the show can sell it for that price, then good for them. If I were you I'd just wait and see if those premium prices drop down to regular prices.
