Get Tickets To See Fela On Broadway For Below Face Value

One of this season's most critically acclaimed shows is Fela. The show which is based on the life of activist and musician Fela Anikulapo Kuti opened on Broadway last November to rave reviews. Prior to it's Broadway opening it had a very successful run Off-Broadway at the 37 Arts Theatre.

It's interesting to note that this was the same theatre that launched In The Heights. That show would go on to win the Tony Award for Best Musical and become one of Broadway's biggest hits. Will Fela have the same success? Only time will tell. By the way if you need tickets to see Fela on Broadway then you have come to the right place my friends.

From now thru July 4 tickets are available to see this crowd pleasing musical at prices that are lower then you will find anywhere else. See the show that Ben Brantley of The New York Times said, "There should be dancing in the streets. There has never been anything like this on Broadway." Get your tickets to see Fela on Broadway. You will love it.

Broadway's new musical Fela! has legs

If you're like me and love intensely unique music and amazing dance routines, then maybe you should consider obtaining tickets for Fela!, a brand new Broadway show. Fela! uses the uniqueness of Afrobeat, which is a combination of Jazz, Funk and African rhythm and harmonies. This great music is used to tell the inspirational story of the controversial African artist and musician and political activist named Fela Kuti.

Fela Kuti's amazing songs along with Tony Award winner Bill T. Jones original staging makes for a very special theater experience indeed. Mr. Jones also is the writer of Fela! musicals book.

One of the many markets we serve when providing tickets to theater-goers are sales to hotel concierge. In making my rounds visiting various hotel concierge in New York City over the past few weeks, I must say that most of these New York City experts really love the Fela! musical. My friend Lorena is a head concierge at the newly refurbished Surrey Hotel on East 73rd Street and she said "Rich, I really loved everything about Fela! and often suggest my hotel guests go to see it".

Of course Fela! will be a much different theater experience than you've ever had. But if you are looking to see something that only comes along once every 10 to 20 years or so, maybe Fela! is the show you've been waiting for.

Right now, the local Broadway ticket experts at Applause Ticket Agency in New York City (NY State license #71AP1001029) have an arrangement with Fela! which will give our customers access to top priced seating for this amazing event along with greatly reduced prices. It's very simple really when you think about it. Fela! wants an introduction to the average Broadway theater-goer so they can sell more tickets to the show. With this in mind, Fela! is giving our company Applause a significant discount. We in turn, pass on the reduced price we can buy the tickets for, add on a small service charge and offer the public seats at terrific prices.

From now through November 21, 2009, we can provide tickets at below face value for Fela! And provide excellent orchestra and front mezzanine seats as well. If you think you might want to see something unique on Broadway, consider a call to Applause today. Ask for the Fela! BFV ticket special. For additional BFV ticket deals please click here.

If you want to talk about any of the other long-running Broadway Shows, we welcome your call toll free at 800-451-9930 or locally at 212-307-7050. There is never any pressure to make a purchase. We just consider ourselves people that love and know the theater very well.. if we can help, just let us know.

I hope this information is helpful to you and hope you'll consider passing our company name along to others in your life that love the Broadway Theater.

Take care theater lovers.

Sincerely,
Rich Gladstone

Fela! Begins Previews Tonight

Following a sold out run Off-Broadway in 2008, Fela! will begin previews tonight at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre on Broadway. This new musical tells the true story of Afrobeat legend Fela Anikulapo Kuti. The show which is being directed and choreographed by Tony Award winner Bill T. Jones(Spring Awakening)is set to open on November 23. While reviews were strong when it played last year it did not move due to a lack of appropriate theatres that could house this very large show. Will it succeed on Broadway? We will soon find out. Until next time theatre fans.
