But you do need to know how to go about it!

In addition, as a CFT member you have a chance to attend not-at-all-free off Broadway, off off Broadway and sometimes Broadway theater performances at no cost. if you are looking for cheap theater tickets in NYC - you should look no further: we are able to obtain free tickets for our members when a show has some unsold seats and producers would like to create that magical 'full house' feel. As an article in The New York Times said: New York is abuzz with so much culture that they're giving it away.
Our members attend off-Broadway, off-off-Broadway and sometimes Broadway shows, opera, classical music and jazz concerts, dance performances, children shows, comedy clubs, cabaret, etc. using complimentary tickets which they can reserve once they login to www.clubfreetime.com.
There are 41 Broadway theatres, approximately 85 Off-Broadway theatres, and about 120 off off Broadway theaters in NYC. These categories are not about the quality of productions or the talent involved, it's all about the number of seats in the venue: Broadway theaters have over 500 seats, off-Broadway theaters have between 100 and 499 and the bvenues with fewer than 100 seats are referred to as Off Off Broadway.
At the beginning of the 20th century many theatres were located on Broadway and that's when the 'Broadway theater' term came to life. Only three 'Broadway' theatres are located on Broadway nowadays: the Winter Garden, the Marquis, and the Broadway Theatre. All other Broadway theaters are located in the theater district in the blocks east and west of Broadway around Times Square. The Theater District lies between 42nd and 53rd streets.
In the 1890s this section of Broadway was one of the first part of town to be lit with electric lights, which led to the New York Telegram headline 'Found on the Great White Way' and that's how the nickname 'the Great White Way' came to life. Most visitors never venture off the Great White Way. Approximately 14 million people a year attending Broadway shows.
Meanwhile, although Eugene O'Neill famously said in 1931: ''One of the things I regret, is the passing of the experimental group theater,'' off Broadway and off off Broadway theaters, being significantly less commercial then Broadway, or, in many cases, not commercial at all, offer a great variety of extremelly interesting and exciting experimental and not-so-experimental works. If you want to see real quality theater - give off Broadway and off off Broadway theater a try.
Off Broadway theaters have nurtured Pulitzer Prize-winning plays and playwrights and attracted prominent actors and actresses. Musicals such as ''A Chorus Line'' and ''Ain't Misbehavin' '' moved to Broadway from off Broadway. You may as well see a Broadway show at an Off Broadway theater as producers can continue running their shows with considerably reduced weekly costs by going from Broadway to Off-Broadway, as actor salaries and advertising costs are much less for off Broadway theaters. (We put lots of efforts in obtaining complimentary tickets for off Broadway shows for our members). One of the most famous off Broadway theaters is the Public Theater
The world of Off Off Broadway theaters is one of most interesting and unknown parts of New York City's theatrical life. It gives you the real sence of belonging as being so close to the stage allows you to see every nuance of what's happening there. That's where young, exciting playwrights are discovered. That's where you can see talented, unknown actors who may become the big stars of tomorrow at the tiny fraction of a Broadway ticket price.

In this performance, Vignesh Ravichandran and ensemble pair iconic South Indian poetry with classical Carnatic ragas to evoke in the listener the rasa or emotive essence of the poems. Compositions that are tuned to poetry span a vast tapestry of experience, from sacred chants and vibrant folk melodies to love poetry, poetry with a philosophical message, community anthems, and oppari, the poignant songs that celebrate a life after it has passed. The repertoire will include a varied selection, including traditional *Keerthanais, stanzas from the spiritual treatise of Tiruppavai, more emotive genres like *Padams & Javalis and playful folk melodies. Experience poetry and music infusing and transforming one another.

Play | Enchantment: Bioplay on the Life of Musician Ravi Shankar
Enjoy a special presentation of Enchantment, an intimate theatrical journey into the inner life of music giant Ravi Shankar, written and directed by Gowri Ramnarayan. After the performance, talk with Ramnarayan and the cast about the legendary sitar maestro, a global icon of Indian classical music and notable collaborator with Philip Glass, Zubin Mehta, George Harrison, and many others. This is not a standard retelling of Shankar's legendary career. Instead, this bioplay steps into the inner world of the sitar maestro — his doubts, regrets, struggles, and the fierce resolve that carried him from a boy dancer in Paris to one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Through moments of vulnerability and brilliance, the play reveals how Ravi Shankar transformed adversity into artistic triumph. Written and Directed by Dr. Gowri Ramnarayan. Cast: Yohan Chacko, Aarabi Veeraraghavan, Bhavya Kumaran, Sneha Sheejith

Performance | Literary Performance-Lecture with Prize-Winning Novelist Tom McCarthy
Enjoy a performance-lecture by novelist Tom McCarthy (Remainder, Satin Island, C), drawing on philosophical, historical, and psychoanalytic conceptions of return. McCarthy examines the recurring patterns that shape writer Ingeborg Bachmann's literary project. Setting this in dialogue with Friedrich Nietzsche, Karl Marx, and Sigmund Freud, he explores how repetition, memory, and trauma operate within her work -- unfolding it in turn across a broader cultural landscape, where its scenes mix with those of filmmakers such as David Lynch and Stanley Kubrick, of writers from James Joyce to Stephane Mallarme.

Performance | //shrouded\\: Multi-Genre Living Poem Exploring Memory & Transformation
In this performance, multi-spirited Nigerian American choreographer, author, performance artist, and curator jaamil olawale kosoko's award-winning work is rooted in a complex interdisciplinary practice that merges theater, video, sculpture, and the exploration of queer Black theory. Their new work, //shrouded\\, is a living poem and performative ceremony that recasts the body as an archive of memory and transformation. Performed by kosoko and their ensemble of visionary collaborators, //shrouded\\ unfolds in a shifting veil of silks that conceal and reveal states of metamorphosis. As performers slip between presence and absence, mourning and joy, figure and shadow, kosoko dares to ask what it means to choose to go unseen—in an age shaped by surveillance and spectacle. A unique mash up of poetry, sound, and movement, //shrouded\\ invites audiences into the communal act of reimagining the future. This is a work in development performance. There are two ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon.

Musical | The Elementary Spacetime Show: Surreal, Existential Musical (Ages 16+)
In the opening moments of The Elementary Spacetime Show, a young girl, Alameda, attempts to take her own life. She is drawn into a tunnel that deposits her into a liminal void somewhere between life and death. Alameda is faced with an awkward challenge: in order to die,she must play and win a game show. The girl clashes with a depressed mosquito, confronts her doppelgänger’s self-loathing, and adopts a piece of rhubarb as a confidante. Things only get stranger from there. Across the unfolding drama, a queer kinship builds between the unlikely friends she meets in limbo. The Elementary Spacetime Show is a touching and surreal new musical by Jonathan Larson Award-winning composer and lyricist César Alvarez, with a book by Alvarez and Emily Orling that offers possible answers about why we exist, even when you feel alone. Playbill says that Elementary Spacetime "bends the rules of space and time to grapple with suicide and the stigma tethered to it." Please note: This performance contains adult themes and strong language. Audience discretion is advised; this show is intended for ages 16+. There are two ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon.

Performance | Visual & Performance Artist Selma Selman Shares her "Dear Omer" Writings (+ Q&A)
Artist Selma Selman performs a lecture addressed to Omer–a fictional character she has been writing to for years. The performance centers on Selman reading her CV aloud: her education, residencies, and exhibitions, all offered as proof of a worth that Omer will never quite see. It is the kind of recounting you do for someone who makes you feel like nothing is ever enough. Alongside this, Selman will guide the audience through a selection of her works–pieces with strong narratives that sit close to the Dear Omer writings. Together, they offer a window into the textual practice that has run through her work for over a decade, where language becomes both the wound and the way through it. The evening closes with a Q&A, inviting the audience to go deeper into Selman's practice–to ask not just about the work, but about the choices, the obsessions, and what it means to keep addressing someone who never writes back.

Performance | FEMM: Feminist Drama by Emerging Playwright
A museum for its patrons and a prison for its relics, FEMM is a place where women who behave outside of the patriarchal status quo are kept for their own safety. When Char is admitted to the “hysterics exhibition,” she meets four women who have been kept there for longer than they can remember—Ginny, an emotionally volatile recluse who touts complacency but is secretly manipulating her way to escape; Zee, an excitable harpy prone to fits of ecstasy; Via, an apathetic lover of morbidity; and Opi, who often gets lost in familiar places and speaks in strange hallucinogenic riddles. As Char enters their realm, she begins to discover a community among the madwomen, but pushes them to begin exposing the injustices of the emporium. Written by Zoe Stanton-Savitz.

Play | Limitrophe: Apocalypstic Drama by Emerging Playwright
What can you build on a territory that has been reduced to ruins? On the edge of a border harbor, under a cloche, there aren’t many souls left living. Yet, THE GRAPEVINE narrates NEREO’s arrival to this terrible territory on Suspension Sunday. By chance (or not), he gets hired as a handyman at the Borrodale country house. There, in the middle of debris, are surviving THE BARONESS OF BORRODALE and JACKIE, childhood allies and accomplices. At first blush, the young man’s presence sows discord, friction, and jealousy between the two. At second blush, it also reveals the devastation of their past, and the limits of their future.

Play | Alala & The Scarman: Political Drama by Emerging Playwright
In an unnamed nation that bankrolls American power, a radical student activist leads a campaign demanding her university divest from the United States. At home, her boyfriend—an immortal man who once survived a lynching—keeps himself safe by offering spiritual readings, turning the scar that could not kill him into currency to avoid deportation. As protests rage outside their apartment, the performances that keep them alive begin to erode their intimacy. When survival becomes spectacle, what remains between them that isn’t an act?

Musical | Most Wanted: Staged Concert Exploring Fame & Celebrity
Award-winning composer Mark Bennett and celebrated writer Jessica Hagedorn join forces with director Emilio Ramos for a staged concert of Most Wanted, a piece that interrogates our dangerous obsession with fame and celebrity. Set in the aftermath of a notorious assassination and manhunt in 1997, Most Wanted is loosely inspired by the life and crimes of Andrew Cunanan--a kaleidoscopic journey through high fashion, glossy magazines, low dives, and the end of the line for a lost young man. Please note: This performance contains adult themes and strong language. Audience discretion is advised; this show is intended for ages 13+. There are two ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon.
