Although I grew up in New York, we haven't lived there for sixteen years. When we visit, we always see a few plays, but aren't crazy about waiting on those long TIX lines, especially in bad weather (even though the steel drummer that sets up and plays classical music on the pans is awesome...)

Through trial and error, I found a website I've used for two years. I don't think I have enough posts yet to give you the link, but it's called BroadwayBox.com

(I'm sure you can find it. PM me if you need to.)

It has lists of special half price offers (sometimes 75% for newer shows, and never any discounts for the really popular ones.) It gives coupon codes you can use when purchasing tickets.

You usually purchase the tickets directly from the box office with the coupon codes, and you can either pick them up at the will call window or receive them in the mail.

Broadway discounts available now are:

A Streetcar Named Desire
After the Night and the Music
All Shook Up
Avenue Q
Beauty and the Beast
Chicago
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
Doubt
Glengarry Glen Ross
Hairspray
Jackie Mason: Freshly Squeezed
Lennon
Mamma Mia!
Movin` Out
Primo
Rent
Spelling Bee
Steel Magnolias
Sweet Charity
The Blonde In the Thunderbird
The Constant Wife
The Glass Menagerie
The Light in the Piazza
The Phantom of the Opera
The Pillowman
The Producers
Whos afraid of Virginia Woolf?

They also have off Broadway discounts.

We are visiting NY next month and will be picking out our tickets on our next payday.
