I couldn't get through. And tickets are already going on ebay for around $900 each. Sheesh, if you're going to spend $1800 on tickets, then hop a plane to NYC, see the show, then come back.

Finally got through. Wow. That was 3-1/2 hours I'll never get back. I wouldn't have stuck it out if it weren't for the fact that my girls are beyond excited about it. Christmas surprise!

I doubt that the $250 is each because the most expensive price is $150 They probabily bought 4 to 5 seats for $250 in the balcony.

Balcony seats were only $55. They probably got front mezzanine which were about $125.

I give up even trying. No show is worth all this hype. Spending the night in front of the Capitol. Give me a break!

Yes. I think it's @ 10am every morning during the run and whomever gets chosen (I can't remember how many) get 2 tickets @ $25 per ticket.

I saw this last week, and I'd also seen it on Broadway 5 years ago. Paid the same price for both. Enjoyed both just as much. Although the stage for the Broadway venue was much bigger than the Capitol Theater, so it gave it a bigger feeling of spectacle.

The only issue that I had with this was Galinda's understudy had weird vocal placement when she was singing in her upper range, and it made the words nearly unintelligible. Good thing I already knew the song. Otherwise she did a great job.
