TKTS

Oops, I’ve had this item sitting in draft-form for weeks. I have no idea how this happened but I guess it’s still of some interest.

The TKTS booth in Times Square reopened on October 16th. It has returned to Duffy Square (Broadway and Seventh Ave. at 46th St.) from its exile outside of the Marquis Hotel. The booth, which sells same-day discount tickets to on-and-off Broadway shows (and certain special events), was originally in what looked like a Home Security-provided disaster-trailer but is now a permanent fiberglass shell encased by an all-glass structure that sits under a glowing red glass staircase. It is kind-of strange and goofy but seems appropriate to the location. It has also doubled in size which will presumably make the lines move faster and, hooray and bravo! now accepts credit cards. I have been known to get boisterously annoyed when confronted with the previous cash-only policy.
