Broadway Production of Cinderella To Open This Sunday

That's right theatre fans. Cinderella is now on Broadway. However this isn't the Disney version. For those of you that aren't familiar with it this new production is based on the Rodgers and Hammerstein version that first premiered in 1957 starring Julie Andrews. That of course was on television. Two more small screen versions would follow over the years but this will mark the productions first time on the Great White Way.

Now I have always been a big fan of Rodgers and Hammerstein. I mean who doesn't love The Sound of Music or The King and I? Or such classics like Oklahoma or Carousel? They are musical theatre legends. Now how this production will fare is any ones guess. I can tell you that it has been selling very well during it's preview period. In fact just last week the show grossed over a million dollars at the box office. Not bad for a show that has never been on Broadway.

The show which began previews earlier this month at the Broadway Theatre will officially open this Sunday. By the way for those of you looking to purchase tickets for Cinderella you have come to the right place. Good seats are now available for most performances. Not only that but at prices that can't be beat. Be advised that while this "Insider Deal" is good thru April 20 it is not good for Saturday and Sunday matinees and like always subject to availability. Get your tickets to see Cinderella on Broadway. Until next time theatre fans.

Customer Story

Today's customer story comes all the way from Atlanta, Georgia. Yesterday I was talking to a customer on Boldchat. Boldchat? What is that? To be honest when we first started using it almost five years ago I had no idea what it was either. It's sort of like instant messaging where people can log on to our website and talk live to one of us online. Not only can they use Boldchat to inquire about tickets but they can also order on there as well. So anyway this particular customer was planning a trip to New York next month and wanted to see a show.

I asked her what she wanted to see and her first and only choice was Jersey Boys. One of my favorites by the way. If you haven't seen it yet I highly recommend you check it out next time you are here. It is fantastic. So now that I knew what she wanted to see I needed to find out when she wanted to go and where she wanted to sit. For those of you that are not familiar with the theatre it is very small. Only 1,228 seats. Which by the way is about six hundred fewer seats than Wicked. See? I told you it wasn't very big.

Now those of you who read my blogs now that my favorite place to sit is in the Front Mezzanine. Especially in this theatre. In fact the very first row of the Mezzanine overhangs the eleventh row of the Orchestra which makes it in my opinion the best place for seeing the show. At first she had wanted to sit in the Orchestra but after I told her that she decided that the Front Mezzanine would be better. Glad she agreed with me. When all was said and done I got them great seats in the second row right on the aisle. Plus I got them for a rate that was lower than they had seen on other sites. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

Customer Story

Today's customer story comes all the way from the great state of Michigan. Lansing to be exact. Yesterday I received a call from a travel agent who's client was planning a last minute trip to New York and wanted to see a couple of shows while they were here. Their choices were Newsies and the New York Pops. Now while I am familiar with the New York Pops I wasn't aware that they were performing next month. It turns out that they are doing a one night only concert at Carnegie Hall. Unfortunately the concert was practically sold out except for a few single seats. Well since they had four people I knew that probably wouldn't work. Luckily I called another broker who had some seats. Problem was he only had three. In the end I ended up getting them three seats together and a single seat just a couple of rows away. One show down. One to go. Since Newsies has been playing for awhile I figured I should have no problem getting them some pretty good seats. True to form I got them excellent seats in the center Mezzanine and for a price that was below our normal retail rate. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

Customer Story

Well wouldn't you know it but the same day that I post a blog about Lucky Guy I get a customer calling to order tickets for the show. Which brings me to today's customer story. As I said I received a call from a regular customer of ours who wanted to purchase two tickets to see the show. Now while the show does have a sizable advance there are tickets available for most performances. Now to be honest if you don't want to pay a Premium most of the seats in the Orchestra are probably going to be off to the side. Which in most theatres is not that bad. I myself like to be in the Mezzanine. As it turns out so did my customer. Since she was flexible with the date I was able to find two seats in the Center Mezzanine. Now while the seats were a little further back than she was hoping for they were still a very good view as the theatre is not very big. In fact there are only ten rows in the Mezzanine and only twenty-two in the Orchestra. See? I told you it wasn't very big. Plus the tickets ended up being less then she was expecting. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

Lucky Guy With Tom Hanks To Begin Performances On Broadway This Week

I can't tell you how excited I am to see Lucky Guy. Not only will it star two-time Academy Award winner Tom Hanks but it is written by the late Nora Ephron. In case you didn't know besides being an acclaimed playwright and novelist she also wrote the screenplays for When Harry Met Sally,Sleepless in Seattle and You've Got Mail. Two of which are personal favorites of mine. Care to guess which one is not on my favorites list? Well since they all star Meg Ryan it is probably a little difficult to figure out. Don't worry. I won't keep you guessing. It's Sleepless in Seattle. I don't know why but I just didn't like it as much as the other two. Maybe it's because the two stars didn't share any scenes together until the very end.

I guess it doesn't really matter what I think since the movie was a giant hit. Anyway enough about the movies. You came here to find about about Lucky Guy. Previews for the show are scheduled to begin this Friday at the Broadhurst Theatre with opening night set for April 1. As of now the show is set to play thru June 16 only. Will it extend? Well I guess it all depends on Mr. Hanks film schedule. We shall see. By the way for those of you who want tickets to see Lucky Guy you have come to the right place. Not only do we sell tickets to this show but all shows both On and Off-Broadway. Get your tickets to see Lucky Guy on Broadway at the Broadhurst Theatre. Who knows? Maybe I'll see you there. Until next time theatre fans.

Customer Story

Today's customer story comes all the way from the great state of California. Palos Verdes Estates to be exact. Don't feel bad. I haven't heard of it either. This past Friday I received a call from a travel agent who's client was planning a trip to London in June and wanted to see a couple of shows while they were here. Let me guess. You thought I was going to say New York didn't you? Now though most of our sales are for New York we do get a lot of calls for London as well.

Anyway now that I knew what city they would be in I needed to find out what they wanted to see and when they would be there. Their choices? The Audience and The Tempest.Since they were coming in June I figured that good seats would still be available. They were planning three months in advance after all. However they were a little worried that tickets to The Audience might be a little more difficult. The reason? Well that might be because the show is starring Academy Award winner Helen Mirren. Makes sense now right?

Luckily I was able to find them some excellent seats in the fourth row of the Orchestra right on the aisle. One show down. One to go. Once again I was able to get some very nice seats in the Middle Gallery. Which by the way is the best view for this Shakespearean classic. Not only that but I got both shows for prices that were lower than they had seen anywhere else. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

Customer Story

This week's customer story comes all the way from Kingsport, Tennessee. Earlier this week I got a call from a travel agent who's client was planning a trip to New York in March and wanted to see a show while they were here. His choice? Why none other than Broadway's most "Popular" musical. That's right theatre fans. I am talking about Wicked. Hard to believe it but the show will celebrate it's tenth year on Broadway this October. My how time flies. So anyway now that I knew what he wanted to see I needed to fine out when he wanted to go and of course where he wanted to sit. Now usually I suggest the Front Mezzanine as in most cases it is a better view. For those of you that don't know the first row of the Front Mezzanine overhangs row N of the Orchestra. Unfortunately Front Mezz was not available. There were however some very nice seats in the Center Orchestra Row V. Yes I know that may sound far back but it's still a full view. Plus the further back you go in the Orchestra the more elevated you are. Well he loved that. Not only that but I was able to get them for a price that was lower than he was expecting. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

Customer Story

Today's customer story comes all the way from our friends up North. That's right. I am talking about Canada. Edmonton, Alberta to be exact. Yesterday I received a call from a travel agent who's client was planning a trip to New York in May and wanted to see a couple of shows while they were here. Their choices were Jersey Boys and The Book of Mormon. Both of which won the Tony Award for Best Musical of the Year.

Anyway so now that I knew what they wanted to see I needed to find out when they wanted to go and where they wanted to sit. Now while Jersey Boys has been playing for a numbers of years it is still one of Broadway's most popular shows.Luckily since they were flexible on the day I was able to get them very nice seats in the first row of the Front Mezzanine on the aisle. Plus I was able to get them seats at a rate that was lower than they were expecting.

One show down. One to go. Now they knew that since The Book of Mormon was still one of Broadway's hottest shows that not only would it be difficult to get but expensive as well. They were right. However I was able to find some very nice seats in the second row of the Front Mezzanine. Now was it dead center? No it was off to the side. That doesn't mean it wasn't a full view. In fact all the seats in that theatre are a full view. No matter where you sit. Plus once again I was able to get them for a cost that was lower than they had seen anywhere else.

Tickets Now On Sale For Orphans Starring Emmy Winner Alec Baldwin

That's right theatre fans. 30 Rock's Emmy winner star Alec Baldwin is set to return to the Great White Way in a new revival if Orphans. Joining him are Tom Sturridge and film star Shia LaBeouf. Wait a minute. Not so fast. It was just announced today that Mr. LaBeouf has departed the production "due to creative differences." Regardless previews are still scheduled to begin on March 19 with opening night set for April 7.

The show which first opened in Los Angeles in 1983 later played an acclaimed engagement in Chicago before moving to New York where it had a successful run Off-Broadway at the Westside Arts Theatre. This new production directed by Tony winner Daniel Sullivan will be it's first time on Broadway. Here is a brief synopsis of the show from it's official website.

Two orphaned brothers are living in a decrepit North Philadelphia row house. Treat, the eldest, supports his damaged younger sibling Phillip (Sturridge) by petty thievery, and makes the house a virtual prison for the seemingly simple-minded Phillip. One night he kidnaps a rich older man, Harold (Baldwin), who turns out to have his own motives and becomes the father figure the boys have always yearned for.

As I mentioned tickets for this show went on sale earlier this week and I can only imagine how future sales will be affected by Mr. LaBeouf's departure. We will soon find out.As of now the show is scheduled to run thru June 30. Get your tickets to see Orphans on Broadway at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre on Broadway. Until next time theatre fans.

Final Performances For Broadway's Mary Poppins

That's right theatre fans. This is your last chance see Broadway's favorite flying nanny. Mary Poppins, which opened to rave reviews from critics and audiences alike back in November 2006 will play it's final performance at the New Amsterdam Theatre on March 3. When it closes it will have played a total of 2,619 performances. Now while I may not be the biggest Disney fan in the world the movie was a favorite of mine growing up as a child. In fact I even loved the stage production. This coming from a man who hated Tarzan and The Little Mermaid and never saw The Lion King or Beauty and the Beast. Oh well. You can't please everyone. Now for those of you who still haven't seen the show you have less than two weeks to do it. Only fourteen shows left. Get your tickets to see Mary Poppins on Broadway. Time is running out.

Today's customer story comes all the way from Rome, Georgia. Two days ago I received a call from a travel agent who's client was planning a trip to London next week and wanted to see a show while they were there. Their choice? Why none other than Broadway's longest running musical of all time. That's right. I am talking about The Phantom of the Opera. Which by the way is one of London's longest running shows as well. Anyway so now that I knew what they wanted to see I needed to find out where the wanted to sit. Now believe it or not but even after all these years Phantom is still one of London's most popular shows. In fact when it came time to purchase the tickets I couldn't even get all the seats together. Luckily they didn't mind. Plus I was able to get them at a price that was lower than they had seen elsewhere. Not only that but they called back yesterday and ordered six more tickets and another five more today.That's a total of eighteen tickets for those of you keeping count. Another satisfied customer.

Customer Story

Today's customer story comes all the way from the great state of New York. Wading River to be exact. Yesterday morning I got a call from a gentleman who's travel agent suggested that he call us. That's why we love travel agents. Anyway he and his wife were planning trip to New York in April and wanted to see a couple of shows while they were here. Their choices were Newsies and The Book of Mormon. Now when you compare both shows they couldn't be more different.One is a wholesome show from Disney and the other one is from the guys that brought you South Park and Avenue Q. I guess that's what makes the Broadway theatre so unique. There truly is something for everybody.

Anyway after finding out what they wanted to see I asked them when they wanted to go and how much they wanted to spend. For Newsies they wanted to be up close and as center as possible. Luckily I was able to find some very nice seats in the Center Orchestra only a few rows from the stage. One show down. One to go. Now since they knew that The Book of Mormon would be a little more than Newsies they weren't so concerned with the seats as they were the price. This time I was able to get some excellent seats in the Center Mezzanine. Not only that but they were only a few more dollars than the tickets for Newsies. Trust me when I say that not only do we have access to any type of seat for The Book of Mormon but at prices that you will see anywhere else. So there youhave it folks. Another satisfied customer.

Today's customer story comes all the way from the great state of Georgia. Yesterday I received a call from one of my long time customers. How long you ask? Well after checking I found out that his first order with us was back in September 2005. That's over seven and a half years for those of you keeping count. Anyway this time it was his wife calling looking for tickets to see two shows in March. Their choices? Well one is one of Broadway's longest running shows of all time. No it's not The Phantom of the Opera. It's Chicago. Now their second choice was Broadway's newest musical Kinky Boots.

Which by the way had it's world premier in Chicago and got great reviews. Now since Chicago has been playing for almost seventeen years I knew I would have no problem getting excellent seats. Sure enough I was able to get them three seats in the Center Mezzanine and for below cost. Well she loved that. One show down. One to go. Now since she was seeing Kinky Boots during it's first week of previews we both thought that it would be difficult to get good seats. Turns out we were both wrong. Once again I got them center seats in the Front Mezzanine and once again below cost. So there you have it folks. Two great shows at two amazing deals. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

Today's customer story comes all the way from the great state of Pennsylvania. Hummelstown to be exact. Don't feel bad. I haven't heard of it either. Yesterday afternoon I received a call from a very nice travel agent who's client was coming into New York in May and wanted to see a couple of shows while they were here. Their choices were Jersey Boys and The Book of Mormon. Two Tony Award winning shows and of course very popular as well. Now they knew going in that the tickets for The Book of Mormon would probably be more than most shows. It is Broadway's hottest show after all. However because we had seats in our inventory that meant that they weren't as expensive as they were expecting. Oh sure they weren't in the first ten rows center. They were in the Mezzanine on the aisle. Luckily for them the theatre is very small so all the seats are good. One show down. One to go. Once again I was able to get them very nice seats in the Mezzanine and also at a rate that was lower than they had seen anywhere else. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

See Broadway's Newest Musical Matilda For Less With Applause Theatre Service

That's right theatre fans. One of London's most successful shows of all time is travelling across the pond to take Broadway by storm. Matilda The Musical, which won the most Olivier Awards in history is set to begin previews at the Shubert Theatre on March 4 with opening night scheduled for April 11. Now while I have never read the Roald Dahl book or seen the movie I am eagerly looking forward to seeing this show. Why you ask? Well if it turns out being a big a hit as Billy Elliot then I know that I have to see it. You see when Billy Elliot first opened I avoided it like the plague. Cut to almost three years later and I finally decided to check it out. Well wouldn't you know it but I absolutely loved it. That's what I get for being so stubborn. Of course two weeks after I saw it they announced that it would be closing in January.

Who knows? Maybe I would have sold more tickets if I had seen it earlier. Lord knows I probably would have pushed it more. Oh well. Shows close all the time. Nothing new there. Now of course thinking the way I do if Matilda turns out to be anything less than a masterpiece I'm sure that I will be disappointed. We shall see. By the way for those of you who are looking to purchase tickets to see Matilda The Musical you have come to the right place my friends. Yes I know the show has a huge advance and lot's of hype surrounding it. That doesn't mean that you can't get tickets. On the contrary. In fact of you call right now we can get you tickets to see Matilda The Musical at prices that can't be beat. Be advised that while this "Special Offer" is good thru April 13 you must purchase by February 28 and like always it is subject to availability. Get your tickets to see Matilda The Musical on Broadway at the Shubert Theatre. Who knows? Maybe I'll see you there.

Save On Tony Winner Once This Winter With Applause Theatre Service

Still haven't seen last year's Tony Award winner for Best Musical of the Year? Well there is no better time than the present. Once, which won eight Tony Awards including Best Book and Best Score continues to play to packed houses eight times a week at the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre on Broadway. Now I loved the movie when it first came out but even I will admit that I was unsure if the show would work on stage. Once again I was wrong. What an amazing night in the theatre. Now is the show for everybody? To be honest I would have to say no. If you are expecting a big show with lavish costumes and big sets then this is not the show for you.

However if you want a show with a lot of heart and a touching story with beautiful music than I highly recommend you check it out. It is theatre at it's best. Now as I was saying for those of you who still haven't seen the show you have come to the right place my friends. From now thru March 10 you can get tickets to see this award winning musical at prices that can't be beat. Be advised that while this "Insider Price" is good for all performances it has limited availability for  Saturday and Sunday performances and like always can be revoked at any time. Get your tickets to see Once at the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre on Broadway. You will love it. I know I did.

So let's say that you are heading to New York for a visit. Now let's say that you are booking this trip thru your local travel agent. I know must people do it that way. Why go thru all that hassle yourself when an experienced agent can do it for you? Makes sense to me. So now that you know where you are going and how you are going to get there it is time to decide on what you want to do and see during your visit. Now of course while you are here you know you are going to see a show right? We are the theatre capitol of the world after all. At least that's what any smart New Yorker will tell you.

This is where we come in. Since 1987 Applause has been providing tickets to travel agents and their clients for all shows and events in both New York and London. Not to mention all events across the nation and worldwide. How many other companies do you know that offer service like that? Not too many my friends. Want tickets to see Wicked or The Book of Mormon? No problem. How about tickets to La Boheme at the Met or the New York Philharmonic at Carnegie Hall? Believe it or not but we do that too. Or maybe theatre or music isn't your thing. Why not head out to Citi Field or Yankee Stadium for a thrilling afternoon of America's favorite pastime?

Or how about the red hot New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden or the Brooklyn Nets at the new Barclay Center? I know that's where I would want to be. That's what is so great about New York City. There truly is something for everybody. Plus not only do we sell tickets for all these events but at prices that you will see lower than anywhere else. Oh and did I mention that we also pay commission to travel agents for every ticket that they purchase with our company? Makes you want to pick up the phone and call us right now doesn't it? Also don't forget that Applause is open seven days a week. 365 days a year. That means that we are always here to help with all your ticket needs. So why not give us a try? You'll be glad you did.

Customer Story

Today's customer story comes all the way from Great Falls, Virginia. This past Saturday I received a call from a gentleman who was planning a last minute trip to New York and wanted to see a show while he was here. Now considering there was a  blizzard terrorizing the East Coast I was surprised that anyone would want to come into the city. Luckily since he was taking the train as opposed to flying he was pretty sure that he would have no problem getting in to see the show. Anyway so now that I knew when he would be here I asked him what he wanted to see. His choice? Why none other than Broadway's hottest show. That's right. I am talking about The Book of Mormon. Now since it was a Saturday night he was worried that it might be difficult. However due to the storm there were a lot of cancellations. When all was said and done I was able to get him excellent seats in the Orchestra on the aisle. Not only that but at a price that was lower than he was expecting. Plus we even delivered the tickets to his hotel later that day. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

Jersey Boys, which won the 2006 Tony Award for Best Musical of the Year will play it's 3000th performance tonight at the August Wilson Theatre. Now most Broadway musicals usually run two or three years if they are lucky. Jersey Boys which is currently the eighteenth longest running show in Broadway history is now in it's seventh year on the Great White Way.

See? I told you it was popular didn't I? Now for those of you who read my blogs know that I avoided seeing the show it's first two years on Broadway. Too much hype I guess. Boy was I wrong. What an amazing night in the theatre. Now will you enjoy the show more if you are fans of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons? I guess. But when it comes down to it good theatre is good theatre. No matter what the subject matter. At least that's what I think.

By the way for those of you who still haven't seen Jersey Boys yet there is no better time that the present. In fact if you call right now you can get tickets to see this award winning musical for prices that can't be beat. Be advised that while this "Insider Price" is good thru March 17 it is for select dates (February 12-15, March 5-10, March 12-17) and like always subject to availability.

Customer Story

Today's customer story comes all the way from Huntington, West Virgina. Yesterday afternoon I received a call from a travel agent who's client was planning a trip to New York later this month and wanted to see a couple of shows. I take that back. She wanted to see three shows. Her choices were The Book of Mormon, Cat On A Hat Tin Roof, and Who's Afraid of Virgina Woolf. Three very different but popular shows. Now out of all of those which ones do you think I've seen? I'm ashamed to say that I have not seen any of them. Not that I'm sure that they aren't good.

Mormon did win nine Tony Awards after all and both Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf and Cat On A Hot Tin Roof got very good very reviews. Actually I was supposed to see Virginia Woolf and then Hurricane Sandy happened. Oh well. The show usually comes back at least once every decade so I am sure that I will see it eventually. So anyway know that I knew what they wanted to see I needed to find out when they wanted to go and how much they wanted to spend.

Well as it turns out these particular clients only like to sit in the first three to five rows in the center. Now I don't know about you but I think that is too close. But what do I know? I prefer the Front Mezzanine. Luckily I was able to convince them that the Front Mezzanine seats were better for The Book of Mormon. However I was able to get them excellent seats in the Center Orchestra for the other two shows. Not only that but at prices that were lower than they were expecting. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

Tickets To Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike

Fresh from a sold out run Off- Broadway at the Mitzi Newhouse Theatre is Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike. Written by award winning playwright Christopher Durang, the play which is based on Anton Chekov's Uncle Vanya feautures stage and screen stars Sigourney Weaver and David Hyde Pierce. Now if that reason alone doesn't make you want to see it then I don't know will. However for those of you that need a little more convincing here is a brief synopsis about the play from the shows official website. Enjoy!

Riffing on some of Anton Chekov's most time-tested themes, Christopher Durang proves in his hysterically funny and surprisingly affecting new romp, Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike, that whether you're in 19th Century Russia or 21st Century Pennsylvania, the human condition never changes.  Vanya (David Hyde Pierce) and Sonia (Kristine Nielsen) have never left the confines of their childhood home - a rambling farmhouse in Bucks County, PA-while having to witness the glamorous exploits of their sister, Masha (Sigourney Weaver), a famous movie actress, from afar.

A surprise visit from Masha and her 20-something boy toy, Spike (Billy Magnussen), throws the normally quiet household int0 utter upheaval as its residents and visitors get swept up in an intoxicating mixture of lust, rivalry, regret, and the sudden possibility of escape. Only one thing is certain: no one will get out of this without looking absolutely ridiculous! Sounds like quite an evening in the theatre don't you think?

Now for those of you who want tickets to see Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike you have come to the right place. Not only do we sell tickets to this show but every show and event in New York. Previews are set to begin at the Golden Theatre on March 5 with opening night scheduled for March 14. Get your tickets to see Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike on Broadway this Spring. Expect the show to be a big contender at this year's Tony Awards. Until next time theatre fans.

Tickets To Alan Cumming In Macbeth

That's right theatre fans. One of the theatre's most acclaimed stars is set to return to the Great White Way for the first time in over six years. Alan Cumming, the Tony Award winning star of stage and screen will begin previews on April 7 in Macbeth. The show which is scheduled to open at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre on April 21 will play a limited engagement thru June 30.

Now let's face it. Everybody has heard of Macbeth and chances are most of you have read it or seen a production if it sometime in your life. It is a classic after all. However this new production is a little different. What do I mean by that? Well instead of me trying to explain it to you why don't I instead provide you with a synopsis of the show from the official website. Enjoy!

Direct from acclaimed, sold-out engagements at the National Theatre of Scotland and the Lincoln Center Festival, Tony and Olivier Award winner ("Cabaret") and two-time Emmy nominee ("The Good Wife") Alan Cumming returns to Broadway this spring in a thrilling one-man interpretation of Shakespeare's darkest and most powerful tragedy, Macbeth.

This Macbeth is set in a clinical room deep within a dark psychiatric unit. Cumming is the lone patient, reliving the infamous story and inhabiting each role himself. Closed circuit television cameras watch the patient's every move as the walls of the psychiatric ward come to life in a visually stunning multi-media theatrical experience of Shakespeare's notorious tale of desire, ambition and the supernatural.

Sounds like an interesting night in the theatre if you ask me. Tickets for the show to be directed by fellow Tony winner John Tiffany (Once) went on sale last week and are already selling like crazy. By the way for those of you looking to get tickets to see Macbeth on Broadway you are in luck. Not only do we sell tickets to this show but all shows and events in New York. Get your tickets to see Alan Cumming in Macbeth on Broadway. Until next time theatre fans.

Customer Story

Today's customer story comes all the way from Mexico City. Let me guess? You thought I was going to say Texas again didn't you? Now while we do a have quite a few customers from the Lone Star State we do get a lot of calls and emails from people from other countries as well. Makes sense to me. After all New York is the "Tourist Capital of the World" with over thirty-five million visitor's a year. Now this particular customer came to us because they had a New York Pass. Which just in case you didn't know gives you discounts for over a hundred places in New York City as well as theatre tickets. Sounds like a good deal to me. So anyway now that I knew that I asked him when he would be here and what he wanted to see.

His three choices were Chicago, Spider-Man:Turn Off The Dark, and Lucky Guy starring two-time Academy Award winner Tom Hanks. Now since both Chicago and Spider-Man have been playing a long time I knew that not only would I be able to get him excellent seats but also a great price. Well he loved that. When all was said and done I was able to secure two seats in the Front Mezzanine for both shows. Not only that but at a price that was lower than they were expecting. Two shows down. One to go. Lucky Guy with Tom Hanks. Now going in he knew that tickets for this show would be more than the other two. He was right. However it wasn't as expensive as he thought. Once again I was able to get him some very nice seats in the Front Mezzanine for less than he had seen on other sites. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?

Customer Story

Today's customer story comes all the way from Harrisonburg, Virginia. Two days ago I received a call from a travel agent. Big surprise I know as most of my customer stories are about travel agents. What can I say? Without the travel agent industry we would not be around today. Anyway she had a couple of clients who were planning a trip to New York during the Summer and wanted tickets to see Wicked. How many tickets do you ask? As it turns out that while both groups were coming at different times they both wanted twenty-two tickets for each show. What are the odds of that happening? So know that I knew what the wanted to see I needed to find out how much they wanted to spend and where they wanted to sit. After all twenty-two seats was not going to be cheap. When all was said and done I was able to get them all seated in the same row of the Mid Mezzanine. In fact I got both groups the same exact seats for both performances. Another satisfied customer. Will you be next?
