The Beacon Theater is a bucket list venue for a reason. There's something very special about this place that takes the artists and audience to another level. If your favorite artist ever plays here and you don't attend you're doing yourself a disservice. If you're a TTB fan and have been.......you already know.

I've always loved the Beacon from the Zappa shows in the '70s to Tedeschi Trucks Band most recently the Beacon has been my go to concert location.

The Beacon theatre, next to Radio City Music Hall, is probably the most famous place to see a show in New York City. (Madison Square Garden would be up there too) Located on the Upper West Side, we've been here a number of times over the years to see various shows. The theatre is very intimate, historical, and beautiful inside. If you ever have the opportunity to attend a show or event here I highly recommend going!

In addition to music acts, does this venue host theatrical events?

A Google User | Oct 7, 2017
Simon Luedtke | Oct 7, 2017

The Beacon Theater hosts a wide range of concerts, comedy festivals and experimental theater exhibitions in the space. However, The Beacon does not hold events any longer than one weekend. So no, Broadway, Off-Broadway and any other theatrical productions that require rehearsal in the space, cannot be found at The Beacon Theater.

Do they ever sell extra and cancellations at TKTS in Time Square

Brian Kochera ABCDT | Oct 7, 2018
Brian Kochera ABCDT | Oct 7, 2018

@EricCollins TKTS is a white booth in Times Square. Many performers and venues lose money if the house is not very full. While mostly theater and long running musicales, TKTS sells understood and cancelations often at a bigger discount than at ticket liquidators. The philosophy is better to fill the seat and make some money. Empty seats don't bring in any revenue. So some venues in NYC send extremely discounted tix to TXTS two or an hour before curtain.
