Treefrog Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 What is the likelihood of getting NYCB tickets at TKTS Friday 2/13 or Saturday 2/14 (evening)? Opinions on which program is better? Link to comment
Dale Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Does TKTS carry City Ballet tickets? Link to comment
Treefrog Posted February 7, 2009 Author Share Posted February 7, 2009 That's what I'm asking. Link to comment
carbro Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 I subscribe to various discounters, and I just ran a search on my whole mailbox. No discounts offered for NYCB. I've never seen it offered at TKTS, but that doesn't mean it's never happened. Link to comment
kfw Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 No discounts offered for NYCB. I've never seen it offered at TKTS, but that doesn't mean it's never happened. I bought some there in 1988. Good luck, Treefrog. Link to comment
printscess Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 What is the likelihood of getting NYCB tickets at TKTS Friday 2/13 or Saturday 2/14 (evening)?Opinions on which program is better? For the month of Feb: every Monday morning @ 10AM, the box office will be selling orch seats for the rest of that week for $25.00 (for specific seats). At least this is what a friend of my told me and she got the tickets. If you like more tutu traditional ballets, then the Sat. evening is for you. If you like more typical Balanchine than Friday is for you. For me West Side Story seals the deal. I hope this helps. Link to comment
ViolinConcerto Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 This is word of mouth, and personal experience, but there are many empty seats at NYCB these days, sad to say. Link to comment
Dale Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 printscess, those $25 tickets are very hard to come by. Treefrog, if you go for those, visit (or have a friend do it, because I know you're in Chicago) the box office Monday morning. I've tried several times to get them by phone and I had a busy signal for two hours. Link to comment
Treefrog Posted February 7, 2009 Author Share Posted February 7, 2009 Are there long lines for those Monday morning tickets? I'd have to ask a friend to go. That's a great deal! Last time we saw NYCB in NYC we saw West Side Story Suite. It was wonderful. I'm probably leaning toward Friday night. Link to comment
atm711 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 The only NYCB discount program I know of is the 'School Theatre Ticket Program'. They offer the Orch. for $55. and the 4th ring for $15. I pick up the vouchers at my local "Y". Link to comment
