Hi, I can't remember who we booked through, but I know we got a lot of information from https://www.tripadvisor.com .They will have lots of replies on their forums that should answer your questions.

Hi i went to see beauty and the beast, i would definately advise you to see it. It was FANTASTIC! Really magical.

We did manag to print out something from the net and we presented it at the box office for 50% off the top priced tickets.

I just cannot remember the name i think it was oscops or something sorry cant be more specific.

We've just come back from New York and went to see Chicago on Broadway, which was great. We weren't bothered about what we saw so spent about 30 minutes in a line for the TKTS booth just off Times Square, and managed to get a pair of seats four rows back to the left of stage for $108. This was exactly half price.
The TKTS booth is a great place to get tickets if you don't mind waiting in line, and if you don't want to see a particular show.
The booth opens at 3pm, selling tickets for shows that night. There is a digital display and a couple of helpful advisors outside showing what is on offer and how much discount is offered - cash only though.

Me and my fiance went at easter, i was dying to see beauty and the beast and it certainly didn't let me down. We had been down to the booth in times square every day hoping to get cheap tickets for it but never managed. Ended up paying $110 each...but was worth every cent. Was annoyed with myself about not booking earlier.

The one thing we did book before we went was a helicopter ride, which i thoroughly recommend. Again a little expensive but a fantastic thing to do.

We got ours last friday for Hairspray from the TKTS booth, half price at $58 each, great price and service from TKTS.

there is a tkts office down at the south street seaport which tends to be a lot quieter than the times square one, i have got tickets a few times once for mamma mia and last month for the wedding singer all at half the price of regular tickets, well worth it!!!

Hi

We used the TKTS ticket office at the seaport too it was very good and opens earlier than the one in times square, as times square doesn't open till 3pm I think.

Got back from New York today!

We saw The Producers, got tickets at less than half price from lastminute.com before we left.
