& Juliet is a 165-minute musical at the 1,055-seat Stephen Sondheim Theatre. It opened in 2022 and is in its open run. Multiple cheap-seat routes are in play: an official lottery, standing room, and TKTS booth eligibility.

Standing room

$45 standing-room only

Sold at the Sondheim box office on the day of the performance — only when the show is sold out.

Standing-room is the longest-odds tactic — sold only when the house is full at curtain. Plan a backup.

TKTS booth

Same-day discounts at TKTS

Typically 20–50% off face value

& Juliet has appeared at the TKTS booth (Times Square, Lincoln Center and the Lower Manhattan locations) — same-day discounts of roughly 20–50% off face value. Appearance and discount level vary day-to-day; shorter-running shows and weekday performances are the better bets.

The realistic playbook

  1. Enter the lottery first. Lowest price, zero effort. Set a daily reminder; the entry windows are unforgiving.
  2. TKTS is the fallback. Same-day, in-person — head to the Times Square booth around 3 PM for evening shows.
  3. Standing room as last resort when the show is sold out — only available the day of, at the box office.
  4. If all else fails, compare the resale market on the main & Juliet page — sometimes resale dips below face for less-popular performances.
