Question: Where is the best place to go for discount tickets in NYC?
Answer: The best place in New York City to go for discount tickets to Broadway and Off-Broadway show is at the TKTS booth in TKTS in Lower Manhattan Theatre Centre at South Street Seaport (the corner of Front and John Streets, the rear of the Resnick/Prudential Building at 199 Water Street. Fewer people know about this booth, so the line tends to be a lot shorter. Plus, at this TKTS location only, matinee tickets must be bought the day before. For example, Wednesday matinee tickets must be bought on Tuesday; Saturday matinee tickets bought on Friday; and Sunday matinee tickets bought on Saturday. TKTS accepts cash or travelers checks.
