I'm wanting to get tickets for Spring Awakening for the last Friday of this month, but I was wanting tickets for onstage seating. Anyone know how to score those?

The onstage tickets for Spring Awakening are only sold through telecharge, so if none come up in your search then unfortunately there are none left. They tend to go quickly because of the reasonable price, and have gone even faster now that the show has gained popularity and fans are eager to sit closer to the action or to their favorite cast member.

Even if you can't get onstage seating, you should still consider seeing Spring Awakening; not only does the show feature a phenomenal cast, but it also confronts a lot of pertinent issues and pushes you out of your comfort zone a bit, making you think. In my opinion, it is well worth the time and money to have the experience of seeing it. That being said, I am also a student, so I can appreciate a tight budget. If your reason for wanting onstage tickets is the great price, consider changing the date that you go. You may have luck if you plan a few months in advance, or (if you live in or near NYC) you could try to get day-of tickets on days that people are likely to be doing other things, such as known heavy travel days for the holidays.

If your date is set and you still want to see the show, rest assured in knowing that the theater is small enough that you can enjoy the show immensely without sitting in the orchestra section. If you're looking to save a few bucks, consider the second pricing tier, which is the 7th-4th rows from the back of the theater. I sat in this section (7th row from the back, so the first row of the second pricing tier) and could see and hear very well, and I can't imagine that there is a substantial disadvantage to sitting in the third pricing tier, which is the last 3 rows of the theater, instead of the second tier.

Good luck finding tickets and enjoy the show!
