I had planned my wife's 45th b-day and we have low income and I picked row C for a very memorial day. I had a terrible situation with a patron and an obstructed view. I immediately wrote my concerns and I was so lucky to be helped by Jess. They not only heard my concerns and confirmed the validity of my concern, they were able to give me a credit to take my wife to have a new experience. It is so nice in this day and age to not only get what I deserve but to not have to jump through so many hoops and to be acknowledged right away makes me feel secure making a big purchase like this for our family in the future. Thank you Jess!

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry the price felt higher than elsewhere. Ticket pricing is dynamic and managed by the production based on demand and availability, which is outside of our control. We do always work hard with our partners to secure the best prices available and we're sorry this wasn't the experience you had.

Very very good!

Easy to select the show, day & time I wanted. Excellent pic of seating chart and several tier prices.

Many available show options

It was very easy to look at available seating for various shows that will be playing when we will be in New York. We just had to choose between them. So many options!
