How To Find Broadway Play Tickets
Have you ever needed last minute tickets to a show and had no
idea how to find them? A couple of little hints could solve this
problem for the next time you are in a jam. Once a show is sold
out and tickets are no longer available from the Theatre box
office you have a few choices you can make. Each choice can take
time, or no time at all but the price you are willing to pay
depends on those factors.
First option in finding Broadway play tickets last minute would
be to shop online at ticket broker sites, this is probably the
most expensive option you have, you can look around for
promotional discounts to save some money, for the most part, all
ticket brokers charge about the same price. Even if they
advertise no service fee's, they still mark up the price of the
ticket itself.
The next option is to look in local papers and online forums
related to the topic. If you want a specific show, look for a
site dedicated to that Broadway play, post to the room asking
for tickets. Most of the time there are already people posting
to sell tickets for an event. I have purchased great seats at
face value to sold out events. People who share an interest are
not looking to make money, they are more interested in helping
out a friend.
The last option is to arrive at the show and talk to the will
call booth. This is the area where people arrive to pick up
tickets they put on their credit cards. Many times people back
out of an event, and the person who bought the tickets is left
with an extra or two. Since he is receiving the tickets last
minute he is willing to part with them at face value just to
recover the losses, and go see the Broadway play. These tickets
are usually great seats, since the purchaser probably ordered
them as soon as they went on sale. This method is probably the
cheapest and best way to get great seating, but also the most
risk, because there is a chance that there will be no extra
seats at the will call booth.
