Defying Gravity?

[sorcyress]

Hokayso.

Part of the whole college dealie is that I can occasionally get theatre tickets for very cheap. (The next show being Sweeny Todd which HOMYGOD there is nothing that will stop me from going short of a Raptor attack)

But the current show is Wicked. 25 dollar tickets, I dunno how good the seats are, but the impression I got was that they were at least decent.

See, Wicked is a good show. I've seen it before, down in Maryland, because Veronica is the Greatest Friend Ever. And, while it is a great show, and I totally love it, it's not currently anything near an obsession.

Plus, I am possibly the cheapest college student in the world*.

SO!

ONE: Is there a BostonNative who can reply to this in the next couple hours and who would be willing to pay me back for their ticket (since I can buy two 25$ tickets) and help me navigate the T and find the theatre and stuff. Because I'd totally go see Wicked with a friend, just to gurentee that I wouldn't be wandering around Boston alone at night.

Specs are that it is Wednesday the 19th, at 7:30pm. I don't know what theatre yet.

TWO: Even if I can't find a friend to go with, should I just go anyways, and revel in the awesomeness of Wicked?

THREE: What are theatre tickets supposed to cost, anyways?

Annnnnnnywaysyeah. I've no idea how fast tickets are selling. If you're desperate to go, call my cell or leave a comment. If you think I ought to go, or not ought to go, and have a reason, please comment and tell me.

That is all for now. And of course, this may all become moot if they sell out before I make a decision, at which point I will simply lurk around the student center when Sweeny Todd tickets go on sale, camping out if I have to. Because, while I've seen this one already, it's totally beautiful and it will make Katters incredibly jealous** if I get to see it again.

*This is a lie.
**Yes, this is a good reason to do things. :D

I paid $100 for mediocre seats at Wicked when I went to see it on Broadway. Not original cast, and it wasn't new or anything. I'd pay at least seventy for good seats at the Broadway Across America performance.

1. No, unlikely.
2. Yes, you should totally go alone if you can't find someone. If you were a boring person who was no one without other people, that would be different and moreover you wouldn't be asking the question. Things can be just as good on your own, because you're enjoying them exactly how you want to. Ask shadowcaptain about theme parks and this theory.
3. the lowest price I've found checking a couple sites, (for a Thursday Day show) is $145 per ticket. Others are much much higher. I think you can call that a good deal.

Yeah, you convinced me. Ticket is attached to my board.

You think I get jealous so very easily.

As for how much tickets usually cost, tickets over here usually average about $18 for adults. I can't guarantee that that's not ridiculously over or underpriced (I'd swing for the overpriced, as this is California).

Hey, how come 'overpriced' is a word but 'underpriced' isn't?

When? And am I too late? I'd LOVE to see Wicked. (Talis would too, but I know the T better than she does.) :-)
