OK, this was going to be a review of Grease but apparently I felt a need to do a whole post worth of info on the ticket booth.
The plan was to go see a Broadway show Sunday night but Saturday when we got there it was drizzling a bit and we were right across the street from the ticket booth so we decided to go ahead and do the whole ticket booth thing and do a matinee.
This whole ticket booth thing seemed a bit confusing and a painful process before I left last week. I had many questions…where exactly was it? What time did it open? What shows would we get to see? Their site was/is very helpful but I’m too
much of a visual person and want to know what to expect.
The first picture shows that you can see all the show times. You pick two or three you’d like to see and stand in line. I’ve heard of one hour wait times but we waited no more than 15 minutes. The first picture was taken from the line and the booths are right around the corner from there. You can see in the second picture we were on the other side standing out on the sidewalk and it gets a bit crowded near the booths but it was very quick once you got up there. Our first pick was Wicked but they weren’t selling tickets to that so we went with Grease. I was a bit hesitant to pick that but you’ll see in my next post that it was a great pick.
Thanks for this post! I really want to try this TKTS booth thing but I’m nervous about what to expect. We really want to see Wicked too, but I guess that is going to be next to impossible.
I just have a few questions:
What time did you get there?
Did you need to pay with cash? I have read that they don’t accept credit cards. Is that true?
