The quickest way to find out what discounts are available for a show is to go to Show-Score’s website (www.show-score.com) and type in the name of the show. This should bring up their page for that show. To the right of their capsule description, you will see a box that shows all the ticket prices for that show available at different sources.
If the show is in previews, you will see the average score members have given the show and a list of their brief reviews. If the show has opened, you will also see the average score and individual review summaries for the critics (including me). Further down the page you can find information about the cast and even suggestions for nearby restaurants.
I strongly suggest that you join Show-Score. It’s free and comes with some nice perks. They have Member Socials when they buy a block of discounted seats for a popular show and have an optional get-together at a nearby bar afterwards.
Another benefit of joining is that you get to score the shows you see. It only takes a few minutes and it’s fun to do. Once you have scored several shows, you will be eligible for Member Nights. Producers offer Show=Score free tickets to upcoming shows they want to build word of mouth for and they make them available to active members for a $5 service fee.
It’s the best site I have found for the information you need to become a more knowledgeable theatergoer.
