Q&A
| Question: |
I notice that for the general admission tickets it says the price is $20.00 if you present your Student ID at the door. I was wondering how this works? Is the discount available for any Student ID? Do they refund the difference if I paid $35.00 for the tickets online? Or does this imply that you can buy the tickets at the door at the discounted rate instead? |
| Answer: |
Good Question. We have added a ticket line for student tickets. Buyers must show valid student ID at the door with the ticket purchased at brown paper tickets. Or student discount tickets can be purchased at the door providing persons have valid student ID's. However, please call (212) 209-2800 to reserve seat and to check to see if tickets are still available. |
