VERTICAL WIPE!: Jul 18, 2003; I'm weird...so forgive me

Chin Strap posted:

Going to be in NYC next week. How busy is the 4th of July week?

Is there any difference between the main TKTS booth and the other ones in terms of selection or lines? My hotel for the week will be in Brooklyn, so if I can hit up the Brooklyn one and avoid the main lines, that would be great.

Also, how early should I show up to wait in line at TKTS if I want a reasonable spot in line and a decent selection of shows? An hour? Less? I'm not super picky about what to see (I've already paid full price for those), so I don't need full selection.

The Times Square booth gets the most crowded, the others, less so. I showed up to the booth at the South Street Seaport at 5 pm the day before, and got good tickets for "The Best Man." If you're flexible, I'd just go when it's convenient for you.

TKTS has a pretty nice app that shows you current availability at each booth, and gives you short summaries of each show. I recommend reading up on the shows before you get to the booth. I had never heard of "The Best Man," but it had a cool political story, and an awesome cast.
