Thanks for another helpful video, much appreciated.

Those are some great ideas!
(I didn't know about the other 2 booths).

For the random reader:
Buying tickets at the theatre box office the same day can cost $40-$85 (I have seen $15 but they were 'partial view') that includes times when you have a big name playing the lead. Big names like The Lion King are $115 & up for one ticket (I think there were cheaper but those were sold out when I got there).

I've used TKTS each day I was there. I saw pretty much all the shows I had listed before.

There is also an amazing company called Broadway Roulette where you pay a cheap rate and they surprise you with what show you receive tickets to!! Haven't used it yet but seems really cool!

Groupon saves money also on things like Top of the rock and 1 world.

Thanks so much Sarah, for your guidance through this competitively savage process of buying theater tickets 😂

[reaganbramlish]

Actually sometimes "mega hit" shows are at tkts. Phantom of the opera is the longest running Broadway show, and the lion king the show that has made the most money for a musical ever, are both at tkts sometimes.
