TKTS iPhone Application: Search Discounted Broadway Shows With At The Booth
If you’re an avid New York City Broadway Show fan then you’ll want to pick up a copy of At The Booth. This (unofficial) iPhone application posts periodic updates about the TKTS booths’ selections – located in Times Square, Downtown Brooklyn and the South Street Seaport.
What’s a TKTS booth?
TKTS Discount Booths offer same or next day tickets to Broadway and Off-Broadway musicals and plays at up to 50% off. All locations sell tickets at 50%, 40%, 30% and 20% off full-price (plus a $4.00 per ticket service charge, which helps support other TDF services and programs).
The catch? Availability and ticket inventory change throughout the day and at the discretion of individual productions. Until now this meant the only way you could determine what shows were available was to visit the booth. Every time we’re in New York we make sure to visit the TKTS booth to see what shows are available. Unfortunately that’s not always convenient if you’re all the way across town in the city. With At The Booth for iPhone you can remotely view an approximation of what’s going to be available at the booth (the information is not real time so it could change by the time you get to the TKTS booth)
This application (which is not sponsored by TKTS – who states they have their own official application slated for September 2010) lists Broadway Shows generally available as well as giving a great rundown of show synopsis , their performance times and directions (maps) to the theater. New visitors to New York will definitely want to grab a copy of At The Booth since it easily replaces the need to carry a map and show guide when visiting the city.
