Broadway Play

In addition to the previous review on Broadway plays, if you are a student-I.D. card carrier, and can wake up early enough, you can get STUDENT RUSH tickets.
Just look in a search engine, such as Google or Yahoo, for current Broadway shows, and cross-check if they have STUDENT RUSH tickets. For some shows you just line up in the morning, and try to be among the first 20 or so ppl on line and you can purchase decent seats for less than the usual price. But please double check online, and call the theater to confirm whether they have student rush tix, I certainly don't want you to wait on line only to not get tix!

Also, for some shows, you can ask if they have onstage seating. That was only possible for me for the Bdwy show Spring Awakening. The tix were lke $26 for the best best seats in the house, the performers were dancing right around you. Alas, the show is on its final run, if it hasn't ended yet. Such a fun rock n' roll play :(

Just some advice on getting discount Broadway tickets for some shows, UP TO 50% off (plus $3 ticket charge).  (I say SOME, because a lot of newer more popular shows are sold at regular price)

Go to TKTS in Duffy Square (next to Times Square). Matinees sell starting at 10 AM while evening shows start selling at 3 PM. Make sure you get there early.  Long lines start forming on the weekends usually 1 hour before tickets start selling (that's 9AM if you haven't caught on).

NOTE:  They accept CASH ONLY, or traveller's cheques.

I highly suggest going to see a Broadway Play when you go to New York City. I saw 'The Producers' and it was one amazing play. I've seen so many theater productions, but 'The Producers' had the most amazing set and costumes.
