Titanique is a 100-minute musical at the 1,710-seat St. James Theatre, with no intermission. It runs through September 20, 2026 — a limited engagement, so cheap-seat demand typically rises in the final weeks. Multiple cheap-seat routes are in play: an official lottery, an in-person rush, and TKTS booth eligibility.

TKTS booth

Same-day discounts at TKTS

Typically 20–50% off face value

Titanique 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. Line up early for rush on a non-lottery day. Weekday performances are the friendliest.
  3. TKTS is the fallback. Same-day, in-person — head to the Times Square booth around 3 PM for evening shows.
  4. If all else fails, compare the resale market on the main Titanique page — sometimes resale dips below face for less-popular performances.
