How to Buy Last Minute Jersey Boys tickets in New York City

I just got off the phone with Karen from upstate New York. Karen has been searching the Internet for hours today trying to obtain tickets for Jersey Boys at the August Wilson Theater for this Saturday November 21, 2009. The 2pm performance.

Apparently she found seats that she liked from one of the dozens of web sites around except the ticket prices were over $200.00 each in the front mezzanine. When she asked me what I thought about the company she was going to buy from, I said I have heard of them. However before filling out her credit card and personal information on their shopping cart page form, I suggested that she make sure there were no "extra fees" for securing the seats. Unfortunately, until you give up your personal information and credit number, Karen really wouldn't know the final price to pay. This made her feel uncomfortable as often ticket company web sites display a "loss leader" price then tack on allot of fees. Especially for a hard to get show like Jersey Boys in New York.

I decided to do some research for Karen as our company Applause Ticket Agency in New York City is always looking to make a new customer whenever we can. As luck would have it, I simply made a call and within a few minutes was able to get the 5 tickets my new customer wanted. And in the first and second rows of the front mezzanine center section. These seats are often sold as premium seats commanding over $300 a piece. Instead I was able to purchase them for less than half that, add on a small service charge and sell them to Karen for the $175.00 she originally had in her budget to pay.

Jersey Boys may indeed be one of the hottest and most popular shows ever to play on Broadway. Still most folks don't want to fork over $200 to $300 a ticket. Why should people overpay for the experience of seeing a Broadway Show?

I'm a sales person but I'm also a consumer. I think it is about time that consumers shop around and call company after company to find the best prices and service. Don't you?

There are a ton of ticket companies out there. The questions I would ask if I were a consumer in need of Broadway tickets is simple really.

1. Can I talk with a local ticket expert that will give me as much time and information needed to make a decision?

2. Will they disclose the "face value" printed on the ticket?

3. Will I receive an email confirmation for my purchase?

4. Was the cancellation policy explained?

These questions and anything else you feel you might need to ask of the ticket agency are all fair questions for sure. Just make sure you feel comfortable with the person you are about to buy tickets from.

And enjoy the live Broadway experience. I hope this information was helpful to you and others in your life.

Jersey Boys Tickets for January-February 2010

Most folks know that Jersey Boys on Broadway, the Tony Award Best Musical in 2006 is a difficult ticket to obtain without having to go to the higher priced "secondary market" of ticket sources throughout the country. Although this is usually the case for most performances as Jersey Boys on Broadway grosses over $1.2 million dollars every week in New York alone, I would like to share my inside secret with you on how to purchase lower priced seats for this show.

As the year is ending and the entire Christmas Week of Jersey Boys on Broadway performances are only available through the market of ticket agents that have bought them long in advance, the public is forced to pay "market prices". Still, if you simply can wait to see Jersey Boys on Broadway in January or February of 2010, I know exactly how to get awesome seats at amazing prices. It's simple really, just consider contacting a locally licensed ticket service like Applause (License #71AP1001029). Applause Ticket Service is a local ticket company that can help you obtain seats at the best prices in the country. And here's a little secret. If you don't mind sitting a little higher up in the mezzanine of the theater, Applause can get you into this great show for under $100.00. Why pay upwards of almost $200.00 a ticket from high priced ticket services when you don't have to?

How do we do it you may ask? We just shop for every possible date on your behalf. Then we match the best seats with the best prices. You can call seven days a week locally at 212-307-7050 or toll free at 800-451-9930. You can tell them The Broadway Ticket Man sent you. That's me, Rich Gladstone. I started Applause 22 years ago and if I can't get you pretty much the type of seat you covet, then I am not sure who possibly could.

For anyone who may need to know some helpful information about Jersey Boys on Broadway, let me share some pertinent facts with you. The show opened on Broadway in November of 2005 and won several Tony Awards including Best Musical for 2006. It tells the very interesting story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons musical band. The 4 band members actually each tell their some of the story all throughout this great show, which has excellent direction by Des McAnuff. The music is by Bob Gaudio who was the Four Seasons musical writer for most of their songs. The lyrics are by their record producer Bob Crewe. Jersey Boys on Broadway has a fantastic book written by Marshall Brickman and Rich Elice. The running time is 2 and 1/2 hours long and the show plays every day but Mondays most weeks.

The show features the great music of the time like "Sherry", "Walk Like A Man", "Big Girls Don't Cry", "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You" and about 20 others. It's truly great music and an excellent piece of theater.

I am looking forward to seeing Jersey Boys on Broadway again in the near future. If you're like me, and you love music, then you will enjoy this show.

Have a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year.

Cheers,
Rich Gladstone

Jersey Boys on Broadway is an International Hit!

Now would be a good time to see Jersey Boys on Broadway. Jersey Boys has played to sold out audiences for nearly 4 years now. After winning several 2006 Tony awards including Best Musical, Jersey Boys continues to please Broadway audiences as well as crowds that attend Jersey Boys in Las Vegas, Chicago, London and Australia.

Jersey Boys tells the story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons rock n' roll band of the 60's and 70's. Each member of the band narrates a part of their interesting story, a rise from their early teen years starting out in New Jersey,when they got into trouble with the law rightthrough to their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Songs like "Sherry", "Big Girls Don't Cry", "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You", "Fallen Angel" and so many more excellent tunes that you're sure to remember will make it a very fun night for you and your family for sure. I saw it a while back in the orchestra section and loved it so much.

Seeing how the show has been running quite a while now, good seats are becoming available, although booking in advance will yield you the best seats. If you have a few possible dates in mind, you may want to consider giving a call to Applause, a locally New York State licensed ticket agency (license #71AP1001029). They are Broadway Show ticketing experts for all the Broadway Shows.

They even have a lineup of popular shows they offer at Below Face Value prices for Broadway. Give them a call, they love talking about the Broadway theater.

Good luck and enjoy Broadway Theater, there's nothing like live entertainment in my book.

"Oh What A Night" Tony Winner Jersey Boys Still Going Strong

One of the biggest surprises for me in the past few years was Jersey Boys. I had avoided seeing the show for almost two years because to be perfectly honest I didn't think any show could live up to that much hype. That was the same reason I avoided seeing The Producers years ago. Not only was it worth the hype but it totally exceeded my expectations. What an amazing night in the theatre. Like most people who see the show I knew the music. What I didn't know was how much these four young guys from Jersey had to struggle to achieve their dreams. I thoroughly enjoyed the show and I think you will too. Plus if you call Applause now we can get you tickets to see this Tony Award winning musical on Broadway, London, or anywhere Nationwide. So what are you waiting for? Get your tickets to see Jersey Boys. You will have the time of your life.

Jersey Boys on Broadway in the Summer of 2009

I got to see Jersey Boys with some complimentary tickets the producer gave my company when the show first started preview performances on October 4, 2005. I remember sitting in the first row center thinking if I were sitting any closer, they'd have to give me a part in the show. All kidding aside friends, I have seen lots of Broadway theater in my days selling tickets at Applause Theater Service but Jersey Boys is truly one of the greatest of all time. Why you might ask?

The story is a simple one really. It tells the story of a small group of New Jersey friends who mostly get into trouble time after time with the local law enforcement officials. The story is told by each member of a popular 60's and 70's rock n' roll band by the name of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons.

Jersey Boys was the winner of the 2006 Tony Award for Best Musical and has sold out mostly every Broadway performance it has played. Jersey Boys recently opened in Las Vegas as well, doing big business at the box office. I went to see it when I was last out in Las Vegas just to witness how they handle their production as I had heard many theatrical productions often make the show less running time out there. Maybe it was a few minutes shorter but mostly the Las Vegas production stayed true to the Broadway version. It was very entertaining as well.

Some of the top songs you'll know if you liked music of the 60's and 70's are "Can't Take My Eyes off of You", "Sherry", "Big Girls Don't Cry", "Fallen Angel". You'll feel like you are at a concert where 30 songs that you'll recall will be played in a concert format along with a very interesting narration by the members of the band. The show is directed by Des McAnuff who does an outstanding job making you feel like you are aware of everything going on around you every step of the way during the career of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons.

Although the Jersey Boys production in New York City has been a tough ticket to get since it started playing, the shows advance sales seems to be slowing down a little (they all do). What this means is that obtaining tickets is becoming somewhat easier.

There are many ticket agencies that would lead you to believe that Jersey Boys tickets should cost you allot of money. But I would caution you to shop, take your time and simply compare seat locations and ticket prices. If you need some help, my staff at Applause Theater Service in New York City would be pleased to help you.

If your plans include seeing additional shows, check out our up-to-date Broadway Show listing and our Below Face Value listing of tickets to shows we can save you lots of money for.

We are open seven days a week and can be reached at 212-307-7050 in New York City or toll free at 800-451-9930. We love our customers and love talking about all the Broadway Shows. Restaurants too have become a big part of what we do, suggesting out-of-towners consider frequenting the local dining spots that we ourselves go to before the theater. Give us a call and ask for a few restaurant names and phone numbers, you'll be glad you did, I promise you.

Let us hear from you if you need help with Broadway tickets.

Rich Gladstone
