You Can Trust The Broadway Ticket Experts At Applause in New York City


I like to read about business. In fact "business" has been kind of like a hobby for me since we started our own "personal theatre ticket service", Applause Theatre and Entertainment Service Inc. http://www.applause-tickets.com/ over 21 years ago with my friend and partner Bill Stolting. Bill and I have shared lots of great times together over the years, both personal and business.

We were sitting around Bill's office several times over the past few months or so, just talking about how the "ticket business" has changed. Indeed it has. We used to sit and take phone orders never really imagining there would be an Internet one day that could "send us the business". We used to "hand write" our customer ticket requests on an index size work order and then manually carry out all the business functions we needed to make sure the customer received their tickets and then finally bill out a credit card so we could get paid. It seemed like the phone call was easy and fast and the process took much longer. This sort of reminds me of my mom saying "it seems to take quite a while to make dinner yet a much shorter time to consume the meal".

Although Bill and I were fortunate enough to have our small ticket company automated a few years back we have been thinking about some things that we could tell consumers that separates us from the hundreds of other ticket companies. Can you believe there are hundreds of mostly small mom and pop like companies that provide a theater ticket service to companies and consumers alike?

So what's the biggest difference when contacting Applause Theatre Service in New York City? It's not really just the "ticket" right? Everyone sells tickets, everyone provides a service. Some services are really good and some are not right?

At Applause Theatre Service, one of the things we think we do "the best" and that no one other service can in our expert opinion, is really quite simple when you think about it. We would agree that we have tickets and many others do also, some dates and shows are little better seating or maybe not quite as good as the seating that we have. More or less, we can get tickets to Broadway Shows www.applause-tickets.com/broadway.asp and "the competition" can as well.

The three things we kept thinking about when Bill and I chatted these last few months about "the Applause difference", have nothing to do with tickets. It has to do with:

1. Amazing People-we feel our staff is truly the best, thinking all about what it is the customer is looking for, their needs and feelings. Have a peek at our team http://www.applause-tickets.com/ . Our friendly group of Broadway Experts wants to fulfill customer needs, not just "make a sale". We feel the greatest compliment you could possibly give us after we provide our service is a "referral" of a family member, friend or maybe even a co-worker.

2. Great Service-sure I would say our service is "the best", so would everyone else right? Still if you contact us by phone, email, chat line, whichever method one is comfortable with, we have confidence that people will be able to "see the difference" between Applause and "the other guys".

3. Trust-this little word "trust" is what I keep reading in all those business books I mentioned I have read in the past year or two. Of course the only way consumers and corporate ticket buyers would really know if they can "trust" Applause or any other ticket company is quite simple. Just pickup the phone and give us a call in New York on our toll free line at 800-451-9930 or locally at 212-307-7050. Experience our brand of customer service first hand and you'll see what I mean.

Bill and I don't have visions of becoming the biggest ticket company in the world, we simply want to keep moving forward in our work lives and keep our small company http://www.applause-tickets.com/ running smoothly for the long term. Since tickets are really just a commodity, the consumer today can simply click on dozens of web sites and shop around for the best price right? And even after doing all this "clicking and price shopping", will they get the best deal, service and advice when making a purchase? The customer should know during the phone conversation if they can "trust" the company they are doing business with.

Did you ever walk into a store that was a mom and pop business and wonder how they still exist with all the large big box discount retailers out there? My guess is that maybe they offer the same 3 items above to their customers, AMAZING PEOPLE, GREAT SERVICE and TRUST.

Why take a chance? Talk with our people. Let us help you find the best tickets for any Broadway Show. And let us give you the service you should expect when making a Broadway Show purchase.

A Chorus Line on Broadway-Applause Theatre Service Has Amazing Seats at The Best Prices

For a limited time only this March and April of 2008, Applause Theatre Service of New York is pleased to be able to offer a savings of nearly $50.00 per ticket on its usual prices for orchestra or front mezzanine seating to the exciting revival of A Chorus Line on Broadway.

When A Chorus Line first appeared on Broadway, it played to over 6 million people in 15 years. The show returned to Broadway for its first revival in 2006 and is pleasing new theatre audiences once again. The show has won a Pulitzer Prize as well as Tony Awards and tells the great story of 17 dancers all trying out in a Broadway audition so that they can fill only 8 possible chorus line positions. During the course of the auditions, they are asked to tell the director all about themselves as he hopes to bring out the "very best" within them.

I have seen this show several times myself and each time see something different. It's a lot of fun and also quite heart warming as we get to watch the many emotions that the "boys and girls of the chorus" must go through as they try to "make it big on Broadway".

For a limited time only, the good people at Applause Theatre Service, a local Broadway Theatre Ticket Expert is offering amazing seats at great prices to this truly wonderful piece of theatre. Treat yourself and your friends and family to a great time at the theatre and see A Chorus Line sometime very soon.

See "Wicked" Great Broadway Shows-Don't Miss Out on Applause's Amazing Seats and Excellent Prices

The guys and gals at Applause Theatre Service are a friendly bunch. Several of the staff team write daily blogs on what they find is interesting reading material for our customers and the general public that might want to use our service or at the very least, learn something about their own Broadway interests.

We write about shows that have been playing to big crowds for many years now like Wicked or Jersey Boys as well as Disney on Broadway favorites The Little Mermaid, The Lion King and Mary Poppins .

Sure there are nearly 30 current Broadway productions playing in New York City right now, but the 5 shows mentioned in this particular blog are the most sought after tickets we as Broadway Ticket Experts have seen in a long time. It's been my own personal experience that there is usually one or two, three at most "top tier shows" that garner most of the interest when people call on us and ask for help in obtaining tickets. But these times are different. We now see Disney's presence on Broadway being felt as a "major player' now. The other theatre owner's realize that Disney means business and they can execute all the necessary ingredients that a show needs to in order to remain successful long term.

I've been involved in Broadway Ticket Sales all my life (31 years now) and think our current roster of Broadway Shows is the best ever. So whenever you feel like a special treat, treat yourself and your friends and family to one of Broadway's very special "live experiences".

See a Broadway Show, you'll be so glad you did. Enjoy.

Get Amazing Tickets to see Broadway's Newest Hit Show "Cry-Baby" from Applause Theatre Service

Applause Theatre Service and its friendly sales and service team of Broadway Ticket Experts are pleased to announce "specially reduced-price" preview performance tickets for a new musical called "Cry-Baby". Performances of this new John Water's cult film turned stage musical called "Cry-Baby" will start on March 15, 2008 prior to an official opening on April 24, 2008.

Cry-Baby will star James Snyder as Wade "Cry-Baby" Walker and Elizabeth Stanley as his "good girl" that wants to be bad" leading lady Allison. The show has its book written by Thomas Meehan, a long time Broadway veteran. Mr. Meehan also collaborated with Mr. Water's on Broadway's other great musical-comedy sensation Hairspray.

The entire Applause team really enjoyed Hairspray and has provided thousands of tickets to its customers over the past 5 years or so. We are looking forward to another amazing production from this talented group of creative individuals and its "up and coming" very talented cast.

So now is the time to call Applause toll free at 800-451-9930 or locally in New York City at 212-307-7050 and ask for the CRY-BABY "insider's discount deal". If the show opens as we expect to rave reviews, it will be too late to get these specially priced seats.

Why wait and miss out on this great offer. This is one of those rare exceptions where it might just pay to "be a Cry-Baby", right?

Let Applause Theatre Service Get You Tickets To The Hottest Shows On Broadway


Well now that the Oscar's are over it is time to get ready for the next awards show. And we all know what that one is right? The Tony Awards of course. The one night where the Broadway community comes together to celebrate what I think is one of the greatest things about New York City. Broadway. As it stands right now there are seven new shows that have or will have opened by Tony night. Which means that come the first week of May when the nominations are announced, there are going to be some very sad faces out there. Unlike other seasons in the past there are no front runners. Here is a list of this years new shows.


Catered Affair, A
Cry-Baby
In the Heights
Little Mermaid, The
Passing Strange
Xanadu
Young Frankenstein

I loved Passing Strange, but it is not a traditional musical. I think that is why I love it so much. Young Frankenstein was pretty funny but because of the huge success of The Producers I expect there to be some sort of backlash against Mel Brook's newest production. Little Mermaid, The is what it is. It's there to put a smile on the face of young girls everywhere. And it does. Except for Xanadu which I have yet to see the three remaining shows will all open in the next couple of months. Well there you have it. Which will fail and which will succeed? We are about to find out.

Want tickets to these shows or other shows on Broadway? Call Applause Theatre Service now. The best seats at the best prices. That's Applause.

Get Tickets To Some Of Broadway's Hottest Upcoming Shows Thru Applause Theatre Service

Here we are two months into the year and I can’t tell you how excited am for the rest of this season’s shows. First is the highly anticipated musical Cry-Baby. This show is based on the popular John Water’s movie. Fresh from a sold out run in Seattle Cry-Baby begins previews in March.

My new favorite show of the season so far is Passing Strange. This highly original and fun new musical features music by popular singer/songwriter and Broadway newcomer Stew. Passing Strange is a moving and hilarious tale of a young, black bohemian on a journey of escape and exploration. I loved it.

Good news for all you Gypsy fans out there. This landmark musical hailed by many as the best musical ever written returns to the Broadway stage this spring staring Tony Winner and Broadway Diva Patti Lupone.

Another show I am looking forward to this season is A Catered Affair . This new musical based on the motion picture is poised to be the dark horse in this year’s Tony race for Best Musical. With music by Broadway newcomer John Bucchino and book by Harvey Fierstein this enchanting story is about a Bronx couple who must choose whether to spend their life savings on a family business or to launch their only daughter's marriage with a lavish catered affair.

So there you have it folk's. Quite a season huh? And just think next year's season is just around the corner. So what are you waiting for? Get your tickets now. You won't regret it.


Give us a call at 1-800-451-9930 or 212-307-7050, or visit us on the web at http://www.applause-tickets.com/.

Need Broadway Tickets? With So Many Choices, You'd Better Shop Around

If you search the Internet for the keyword phrase "need Broadway tickets", you will see there are over 388,000 possible answers to your question. So where do you go when you need Broadway tickets? Which web site or blog should you click on? Once you have a web site open, will it be easy to migrate through for the questions you may have about Broadway Theatre?

These questions are only the tip of the iceberg really, aren't they? The truth is, in my opinion, that it is really great to have access to all these choices for the theatre-going public. Maybe there are many places to search, often taking up lots of time, possibly leading to even more confusion about what shows to see or where to shop for theatre tickets.

Any one of us that has been in the theatre ticket industry for many years can easily tell the public that they have the best prices or that they have the best seats, yada, yada, yada.

These little suggestions are available if you speak directly with a group of personable, friendly and knowledgeable ticket experts like the Applause team.

Starring Broadway newbies Max Crumm and Laura Osnes, (Winners of the NBC reality show "You're The One That I Want") Grease is a great show for all ages. Unlike previous productions this one features the original score plus four songs written for the film adaptation. "Hopelessly Devoted to You," "Sandy," "You're the One That I Want," and the title number. O.K. so maybe it doesn't have John Travolta or Olivia Newton-John. But who cares. It's still a lot of fun.

See Passing Strange Thru Applause Theatre Service


All week my colleagues have been raving about this show. So naturally I had to see what all the fuss was about. Normally we as a company don't usually agree when it comes to the shows that we see. Well now that I have seen it I can honestly say that is not the case anymore. I haven't had such an exhilarating evening in theatre like this in a long time. Sure I knew going in what to expect. I checked out the website, heard a couple of songs and thought it sounded like fun. At least unlike most new musicals on Broadway this was original. Not that I'm knocking the other shows I just think it's nice for a change to see something new and exciting. With a score that has some of the most tuneful, soulful rock songs, and witty, thought-provoking lyrics in recent memory, Passing Strange is a moving and hilarious tale of a young, black bohemian on a journey of escape and exploration. I loved it, and I hope you will too. You won't be disappointed. And if you call now Applause Theatre Service can get you the best seats at an incredible savings.

Give us a call at 1-800-451-9930 or 212-307-7050, or visit us on the web at http://www.applause-tickets.com/.

"A Catered Affair" is on sale now! And Applause Theatre Service has got your tickets to this Broadway Musical Comedy Hit!

Tickets are now available for the new musical "A Catered Affair" written by and starring Harvey Fierstein.
The show has an extremely solid creative team with the book by the legendary Harvey Fierstein and music and lyrics by the highly respected John Bucchino. The production is being directed by John Doyle a.k.a. the man that made Patti Lupone play a tuba; he has staged Sweeney Todd and Company for Broadway with all the actors playing musical instruments. The cast boasts Faith Prince, Tom Wopat, Leslie Kritzer, Harvey Fierstein (doing double duty) and Matt Cavenaugh.

A Catered Affair, based on the Paddy Chayefsky TV film and movie, focuses on a 1950's family and their struggle to run a family business and still provide a lavish "catered affair" for their daughter's wedding. The musical is about family and love. Ahhh - that sounds nice. The reviews have come in from the out of town tryout at the Old Globe in San Diego and there is good news! Let's hear some of the good, shall we?

Variety's Bob Verni had very nice things to say about the show; praising all aspects of the piece. He had particular praise for the quiet and elegant staging of the production:
"No musical has ever been so quiet, so often, as "A Catered Affair," the Broadway-bound adaptation of Paddy Chayefsky's '50s-era teleplay and Gore Vidal's subsequent screenplay. The subject is a family whose communication has reached a dead end, so it's fitting that the most affecting moments are those in which words simply aren't enough. Much is verbalized in Harvey Fierstein's gritty slice-of-life dialogue and John Bucchino's sensitive lyrics, but the use of silence -- sometimes for as long as 30 seconds -- is remarkable: Few tuner directors would conceive of those quiet moments, and even fewer would dare attempt them."

GOOD:
Also in the positive column was Anne Marie Welsh from the San Diego Union-Tribune. Ms. Welsh singled out Faith Prince's performance and the shows simple emotional honesty. She had this to say:

"Aggie's the reverse image of pushy Mama Rose in "Gypsy," and Prince's beautifully restrained, carefully calibrated and thoroughly unsentimental performance should earn her accolades and awards this spring when the show opens in New York. Whether this kind of authentic soul-baring in song is too subtle for Broadway audiences fed on "American Idol"-style belting is another question altogether."

"Otherwise, Fierstein and company have already achieved in this artful piece far more than most hard-selling musicals aspire to: They've created real struggling human beings whose deepest feelings are beyond words - and therefore find true expression in song. "audiences are reportedly loving the show.

Sound Good?? You Bet!! Call Applause Theatre Service, www.applause-tickets.com, now and order your tickets to this new hot musical with its All-Star Cast! 212-307-7050 or 800-451-9930

The Ogre is coming to Broadway! Applause Theatre Service is taking orders now to see "Shrek: The Musical"

DREAMWORKS lifted the curtain - just a tad - the other night on "Shrek: The Musical," http://www.applause-tickets.com/shrek.asp set to open on Broadway in October after an August tryout in Seattle. DreamWorks, it seems, is having trouble finding actors who can fill the shoes of Mike Myers and Eddie Murphy, both of whom were crucial to the success of the "Shrek" franchise.
"It's a question of chemistry," says a source. "It's hard to find the perfect pair."
The usual suspects have auditioned for "Shrek" - which is to say Broadway actors of some girth: Dan Fogler ("Spelling Bee"); Kevin Chamberlain ("Seussical"); Shuler Hensley (already green in "Young Frankenstein"). Fiona will be played by Sutton Foster(Modern Millie, Little Women), who's leaving "Young Frankenstein" http://www.applause-tickets.com/young-frankenstein.asp in July. But whomever they get to fill those big shoes, this is certain to be the big holiday hit this year. Tickets will go like hotcakes! Be sure to place your order now for tickets. Call an Applause Theatre Service, http://www.applause-tickets.com/ ticket expert who will take a pre-order on tickets and fill it with the best available seats when our tickets come in. 212-307-7050 or 800-451-9930.

Applause Can Save You A Bundle on Broadway Tickets

Do you want to save money, time and the possible aggravation of trying to buy tickets for Broadway Theatre Tickets from companies who may want to charge you high prices? Who wouldn't want to?

There is a company called Applause Theatre and Entertainment Service Inc., located at 311 west 43rd street in New York that has a simple company motto. Applause http://www.applause-tickets.com/ is a company of real people (Broadway Show ticket experts) that "helps the public get the best seats for the best shows at the best prices". Applause's secret is a simple one really. They are so plugged into the Broadway theatre environment in New York having been in the business for over 21 years now, that they know which shows are hot (and hard to get) and which might be easier to obtain, sometimes for what they call "insider prices". Why wouldn't someone want an "insider's price" so they can save money?

For instance, right now if you go to www.applause-tickets.com/insider-deals.asp, Applause has a wonderful list of more than 20 major Broadway Shows that you can get great seats to, and save a bundle of money also. You get top priced tickets and save so much money, you can buy yourselves a really nice dinner at one of the nicer establishments in the city. Most people do have dinner first but maybe wouldn't spend as much on a somewhat nicer place to eat. Now they can.

Applause is open 7 days a week, from 9am till 8pm Monday thru Saturday and 9am till 7pm on Sundays. The web site is a great one http://www.applause-tickets.com/ but since the Applause staff loves to talk, you can call toll free at 800-451-9930 or locally at 212-307-7050.

Buying Broadway Tickets Is a Matter of Trust

Interested in buying Broadway Tickets? When you go to Google and simply type in Broadway Tickets when you are interested in buying "Broadway Tickets", you will get pages and pages of answers to where to shop for tickets. In fact there are 5,410,000 possibilities. Kind of crazy right? You can simply go to http://www.applause-tickets.com/ and contact Applause in New York City.

So how will the average person shopping for Broadway Tickets know which web site to stop at? Or how will the average person know which company to consider contacting by phone when considering talking with someone about various shows playing on Broadway?

Like most things people shop for in life, it often takes several converations or interactions with a company to get an idea of possibly wanting to do business with that company. At Applause Theatre and Entertainment Service Inc., a licensed ticket broker doing business at 311 west 43rd street, suite 601 in New York City, the company makes a big deal out of asking the public to "call us so we can talk and get to know you". Many companies in most industries rarely promote the public to "call", instead relying on "web bookings" or email type sales.

The Applause staff of friendly Broadway and London ticket experts http://www.applause-tickets.com/ have an uncanny ability to handle the most difficult ticket requests put in front of them, not to mention the thousands of questions they receive about which restaurants their customers might want to dine at or inquiries about hotel bedding, sightseeing, shopping and just about anything you can think of. The company doesn't look at its shoppers and customers like "its all about making a quick sale" so they can move onto the next person on their phone lines.

They take their time with all callers. The goal is to hopefully make the caller feel as comfortable as possible. Sure they love to sell Broadway tickets, and they sell tons of them. They have been in business for over 21 years now and know how to treat their customers as well as anyone calling the company.

Their Broadway ticket inventory is extensive as is their access to inventory for shows, events, concerts and sporting events all over the country The Applause Theatre and Entertainment Service staff "aims to please" on each and every call.

So when you are interested in getting tickets for a Broadway show in New York or events throughout the country and in London too, you may want to consider calling Applause in New York at 800-451-9930 or 212-307-7050. After all, as I said at the beginning of this post, isn't it really just a matter of trust"? Remember Applause Theatre Service in New York City when you, your friends, relatives or co-workers need a friendly, relaible and trustworthy ticket service.

The Farnsworth Invention To Close On March 2


What a shame. Words cannot describe how much I loved this show. I think it's sad that an amazing show like this can't find an audience. But in this day and age of "Big" musicals it's not easy for a play like this to have a long run. Thankfully the stagehand's strike didn't last longer, or this show, not to mention many other new plays might never have opened. But we have to look on the bright side I guess. There are still plenty of plays running on Broadway too see. Best of all we sell all of them and at an incredible savings. Here is a list of the plays currently running on Broadway, plus a few that are scheduled to open in the coming months.

39 Steps, The
August: Osage County
Bronx Tale, A
Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
Come Back, Little Sheba
Homecoming, The
Is He Dead?
November
Rock 'n' Roll
Seafarer, The
Thurgood
Top Girls

I can't remember a time where there have been so many new and exciting plays on Broadway. Can you?

Applause Theatre Service has your tickets to see Cher as she plans 'visually unbelievable' Las Vegas gig

Cher beat the odds at every turn in her 44-year career, so it's no surprise she's betting on an artistic rebirth in Las Vegas.
The indestructible diva, who retired from touring in 2005, will star in a song-and-dance spectacle starting May 6 at the 4,100-seat Colosseum in Caesars Palace. She'll perform four shows weekly for one month, then return mid-August through early October, leapfrogging stints with Bette Midler. Her pact with promoter AEG Live extends three years.
Cher, 61, promises a "visually unbelievable" hit parade that entails elaborate choreography, complex staging, eye-popping costumes, 14 dancers and four aerialists.
The music will access all chapters of Cher's career, from her Sonny & Cher start to her recent dance-pop phase, and she's plotting updates of both old and new hits.
Applause Theatre Service, www.applause-tickets.com has got your tickets to both Bette Midler and Cher as these two legends take the Las Vegas stage vacated by the record breaking Celine Dion shows!

Save This Winter On Sunday In The Park With George


Fresh off a critically acclaimed and sold out run in London, Stephen Sondheim's Sunday in the Park With George returns to New York this winter in it's first ever Broadway revival. Sunday in the Park With George tells the timeless love story inspired by the life of painter George Seurat and his masterpiece Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. Unlike the 1984 production this one recreates the world of the painting thru animated design.

Get Tickets To See Young Frankenstein Thru Applause Theatre Service


I've never seen the movie. I didn't even see The Producers when it was on Broadway. My feeling was that anything built up that much was not going to be worth all the hype. How could it be? But now having seen Young Frankenstein twice I can honestly say that if you want to see a good old fashioned musical comedy that will make you laugh from beginning to end than Young Frankenstein is the show to see. Now if that doesn't make you want to see the show then I have four more words for you. Megan Mullally and Sutton Foster. Every moment those two powerhouses are on stage I dare you not to take notice. Those two ladies are what a true Broadway star should be, and are I am happy to say. They alone are worth the price of admission. Now I know some of the jokes may be a little off color at times, but if you've ever seen a Mel Brooks movie then you already know what you're in for before the curtain even rises. Just go, have a good time, and enjoy the show for what it's worth. And that's all I have to say about that. Except this. Having trouble getting tickets to Young Frankenstein? Call Applause and we can get you the best seats to the "Monster" hit of the season.

Get Tickets To See Grease On Broadway Thru Applause Theatre Service


Well here we are over 35 years later and Grease is still the word. On Broadway that is. Following the highly rated reality show "You're The One That I Want" on NBC last year, Grease opened on Broadway last summer to the glee of fans and baby boomers alike. Since I wasn't alive when the show first opened on Broadway my first experince like most was seeing the movie with John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John. To this day it remains a classic not to mention the highest grossing movie musical in history. Now since the most recent revival only closed less than ten years ago I questioned whether it was too soon for another one. In this day and age when all we hear about is war and all the problems in the world it's nice to have shows like Grease that help us forget and put a smile on our face. Isn't that what theatre is all about? I think so. So forget about what the critics say and take a trip back to the 1950's with the gang at Rydell High.

See An Off-Broadway Show


Having been in the ticket selling business for over ten years now, (four of which have been at Applause) I would have to say that most of our calls and or ticket requests are for Broadway shows. Makes sense right? I mean when you think of New York and theatre what is the first thing that comes to mind? Broadway. Now don't get me wrong, I love Broadway. That's the whole reason I moved here over sixteen years ago. To be an actor on a Broadway stage. But let's not forget about Broadway's little brother.I am talking of course about Off-Broadway.(Although not so little anymore)Some of the most innovative not to mention original plays and musicals can be found near or below 42nd Street. So what do you have to lose? You might actually enjoy your self. And that's a good thing. And if you need any help getting tickets or even need suggestions on what to see Applause Theatre Service is here to help.

Save This Spring On Spamalot

That's right "Claymates"Monty Python's Spamalot now features American Idol runner-up Clay Aiken as Sir Robin. In recent years Broadway has become a haven for American Idol contestants strutting their stuff on a Broadway stage. Now some might argue that the producers of these shows only cast them in the hope that their name might translate into big dollars. And they would be right. But we all know all the fame in the world doesn't mean a thing if you don't deliver. I am happy to say that having seen most of these guys and gals in their respective shows that they have the goods. Not only that but it brings a whole new audience to the theatre that normally might never attend. And isn't that what it's all about? Plus if you call Applause now we can get you tickets to the funniest show on Broadway at an incredible savings. So whether you're a fan of Clay's or just a Monty Python fanatic see the show.

Save This Spring On A Chorus Line


Growing up as a kid in Illinois I was fortunate enough to be exposed to a lot of theatre. From high school and community theatre, to touring road shows, I was exposed to theatrical productions of all kinds. Not too bad for a liittle hick town of 9,000 people. One of the first professional shows I saw was Chorus Line, A. Before then I had always wondered what I would be when I grew up. After seeing Chorus Line, A I knew for sure. For those of you who don't know, Chorus Line, A is set on the bare stage of a Broadway theatre during an audition for the ensemble of a new musical. The show gives a glimpse into the personalities of the performers and the choreographer as they describe the events that have shaped their lives and their decisions to become dancers. During it's initial runChorus Line, A won 9 Tony Awards and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It also ran for 6,137 performances, becoming the longest-running production in Broadway history up to that time. Now it's back on Broadway charming audiences eight times a week. Plus if you call now Applause Theatre Service can get you seats to Broadway's "Singular Sensation" at an incredible savings. So what are you waiting for? Call now and see what critics and fans alike call, "The Best Musical. Ever."

Broadway Slump? Applause Theatre Service says "no way"!

Is Broadway in a Winter 2008 slump? I just read an article that said in January 2008 shows were playing to half full theatres. It further paints a picture that Broadway business is not as good as it is. I hardly see it that way and I have been in the business of selling Broadway tickets for over 31 years now.

If you go to our web site http://www.applause-tickets.com/ you will see people on the front. These nice folks are busy non-stop from 8am till about 8 at night. We are experiencing more business than the usual January "off peak" time that I think that article I read was trying to convey. Sure Broadway business is slower now, especially after our tourist trade has gone home after the Christmas holidays. But instead of focusing on the "gloom and doom" of a few slower than usual weeks on Broadway, I think the shows should get out there and market more than ever. There are excellent ticket deals now that Applause has, simply go to http://www.applause-tickets.com/insider-deals.asp which will help Broadway shows get busier.

The fact is that there are really good seats to terrific shows playing on Broadway right now. See for yourselves www.applause-tickets.com/broadway.asp . There are nearly 30 shows playing in the "off peak" season. If things were that bad, producers wouldn't produce shows during this time.

In a matter of a few short weeks all of Broadway will be booming again as the Easter Vacation season will be upon us. Applause is seeing its phone lines busier than ever. Sure most people want to see the top 5 shows playing like Wicked www.applause-tickets.com/wicked.asp , Jersey Boys www.applause-tickets.com/jersey-boys.asp , The Lion King www.applause-tickets.com/the-lion-king.asp , The Little Mermaid www.applause-tickets.com/little-mermaid.asp and Mary Poppins www.applause-tickets.com/mary-poppins.asp .

If you want these shows, you may want to contact Applause by phone at 212-307-7050 or 1-800-451-9930. Their service is second to no one else's. Their people are friendly and know everything about getting you the best seats for the shows you really want to see, at the best prices of course.

I don't see this time of year as being a slump for Broadway. What I see is that this may be the "perfect time" to get some great seats for great theatre at "better than usual" Broadway prices.

Call Applause now at 212-307-7050 or 1-800-451-9930 whenever you need tickets for Broadway Theatre. They are the Broadway Experts you can trust all the time.

Michael Longoria Steps Into the Jersey Boys Spotlight and Applause Theatre Service has got your tickets for the hottest show in town!

" Jersey Boys", http://www.applause-tickets.com/jersey-boys.asp
has a new lead and he couldn't be more grateful.
Too Good to be True: Michael Longoria gets the ultimate moment of Broadway musical glory in Act Two when he performs "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" center stage, with a horn section swaying above his head—and the crowd goes wild. "That moment has changed so many times for me," he muses. "As Frankie, I'm stepping out on my own and feeling a little fearful, and as Michael, I've gone though the experience of understudying, doing the matinees and finally taking over the part. Sometimes in that moment, it will hit me: You're on a Broadway stage, starring in a hit show, and this is your 11 o'clock number. It makes me a little emotional because of the journey I've had—from humble beginnings in California, putting myself through college and finally achieving my dream. It really is too good to be true."
A lot of people wait for a year to see us, so I want to deliver something Frankie Valli would be proud of."
And he is certainly doing that night after night bringing audiences to their feet at the August Wilson Theatre. And you don't have to wait a year to get your hands on the hottest tickets in town! We have tickets available at prices that will accommodate every persons needs. So call Applause Theatre Service, http://www.applause-tickets.com/ at 212-307-7050 or 800-451-9930 or Chat live online with one of the Applause Theatre Experts for the very best service there is!

Applause's Broadway Ticket Business is Amazing for the usual Off Peak Winter Season in New York City

I don't know if it was the Broadway Stagehands strike this past November of 2007 or that the economy is not really in the "bad way" we all hear the newscasters say all the time. But we are busier than ever this winter season for Broadway Show ticket sales.

My first thought was maybe the Broadway strike a few months ago led to a "pent up demand" from the tens of thousands of people that were not able to see a show, but have decided to see one this winter. Some people I guess living near New York City have done this but we are seeing lots of "out-of-towner" ticket buying for Broadway Shows this past January of 2008 so maybe it has something having to do with the Applause Insider Broadway Show ticket deals that Applause has been marketing. You can easily have a look for yourselves at www.applause-tickets.com/insider-deals.asp . We usually find over 20 top Broadway Shows where we can save you so much money, it'll pay for dinner at a fairly nice restaurant before the show you choose.

We know the public is bombarded by dozens of different marketing messages everyday, especially for something like Broadway. But, and here's the main difference between all those Broadway marketing messages and how Applause does business.

The friendly staff at Applause http://www.applause-tickets.com/ prides itself on knowing all the great deals every Broadway Show offers each and every day of the year. With very few exceptions, they can tell you exactly which shows have the best seats for the best prices and the best day or night you may want to attend your favorite theatre production.

Broadway, like most businesses wants to sell full price tickets at the highest possible price. But there is a reality to being able to really be able to sell all the seats at the highest price. It really doesn't happen all the time. Theatres sell High, Medium and Low prices just like most other businesses right?

When you are in the market to see a Broadway Show, there are hundreds of ticket sources you can use. Just go to Google and you'll see what I mean. Here's the problem with that. You go to Google, do a search then you get hundreds of different options of who to ask for help in buying tickets. Now you get more confused than ever right?

I have a great solution for you. Simply trust the good people at Applause Theatre and Entertainment Service in New York http://www.applause-tickets.com/ . The people in the picture have been running this company for years now. There is no one better at giving the most "truthful answers to any question the theatre-going public can come up with". The Applause staff of Broadway ticket experts will let you know what are the best seats, best prices and especially what are the current "insider Broadway Show deals", which might be available for the time frame you wish to see a show. If you are in town for a day, two or maybe more, simply give Applause the time period and they will seek out the best seats at the best prices for the shows you want to see.

When you need tickets for Broadway, give the Applause Broadway Experts a call at 212-307-7050 or 1-800-451-9930, they are open 7 days a week and will take excellent care of your ticket needs.

Get Tickets To In The Heights Thru Applause Theatre Service


After a successful run Off-Broadway, In the Heights arrives on Broadway this spring. I did not get the chance to see this show during its run, however those in my office who did see it raved about its music and originality. Set in Washington Heights over a period of three days, In the Heights tells the story of a tight-knit community at the top of the island of Manhattan. It was nominated for the 2007 Drama Desk Awards for Outstanding Music and Lyrics and won the Outer Critics Circle and Lucille Lortel Awards for Outstanding Musical. This looks to be a big crowd favorite. Plus if you call now Applause Theatre Service can get you tickets at some incredible prices.

Phantom of the Opera Turns 20


January 9th, 1988. Who would have thought that a dark, yet romantic musical about a guy in a mask would still be running, not to mention charming audiences year after year? I didn't. Sure like everyone I loved the music growing up as a kid in Illinois. Besides Les Miz it was really the only musical that I was exposed too, except of course from performing in every Rodgers and Hammerstein musical ever written in high school. But hey millions of Phantom loving fans can't be wrong right? If it wasn't for them I wouldn't be talking about this show some twenty years later.

Save Now On Spring Awakening


Winner of 8 2007 Tony Awards including Best Musical, Spring Awakening is one of the most exciting and ground breaking musicals to hit the Broadway stage in years. I personally have seen the show over five times and could see it again and again. With a memorable rock score by Tony Award winner and Grammy Award nominee Duncan Sheik, Spring Awakening boldly depicts young people struggling to make their way through the thrilling, complicated, confusing and mysterious time of their sexual awakening. And if you call now Applause Theatre Service can get you the best seats at an incredible savings. See the show that John Heilpern of The New York Ovserver calls, "A miracle that must be seen to believed. The best new musical in a generation."

Save This Spring On Avenue Q


Avenue Q is hands down one of the funniest if not the funniest shows I have ever seen On or Off Broadway in years. In fact it was the first show I ever took my parents to and they still talk about it nearly four years later. I remember the first time I saw it I was in hysterics the whole time. As you have probably figured out by now I am a huge fan of the show. And why not? It's got everything you could want in a Tony Award winning musical. Sex. Drinking.Surfing the web for porn. And those are just the puppets. Plus they even have everybody's favorite pint sized superstar Gary Coleman as the super on Avenue Q. See the show that proudly proclaims, "It Sucks To Be You". Now if that doesn't make you want to buy tickets then I don't know what will. And it gets better. Now thru March 30th Applause Theatre Service can get you great seats at a fabulous savings. So what are you waiting for? Buy your tickets now to see Avenue Q. You won't be disappointed!

The County Girl Opens On Broadway This Spring


To say that I am looking forward to this production would be an understatement. Truth be told I'm really not that familiar with the show or the 1955 Oscar winning film. The real reason I am so excited is because playing the lead is one of my favorite actor's, Oscar winner Morgan Freeman. To be perfectly honest the man could get up on stage and read the phone book and I would be happy. The playwright Clifford Odets' scored a big hit two years ago with Awake and Sing which won the Tony Award for Best Revival. Besides Mr. Freeman, the play stars Oscar winner Frances McDormand with direction by Tony and Oscar winner Mike Nichols. Now if that doesn't make you want to see it then I don't know what will. The Country Girl features the title character, Georgie, who is married to actor Frank Elgin, once a great theater star and now down on his luck. When Frank is offered a major role by hotshot director Bernie Dodd, he has the chance to make a major comeback. Performances begin April 3 at the Benard B. Jacobs Theatre, with an official opening night scheduled for April 27. Get your tickets now to what is sure to be one of this season's biggest hits!
