It is that time. One of the most cost prohibitive sources of entertainment and enlightenment is giving us a break. Or a discount. Who cares! You can get theater tickets on the cheap!

Nycgo.com Is offering 2 for 1 tickets with several participating Broadway show Jan. 19 – Feb 5th. That is all week. But, this is New York you say. You’re Broke with a capital “B.” In order to persuade you to partake in a once a year offering, we have five reasons why you need to take advantage of this awesome event.

5. Impress a date. Your date is most likely tired of $2 pizza in the Village followed by a brisk walk back uptown cause you spent your train fair on aforementioned pizza. Yes, tickets are expensive, but 2 for 1 allows you to kinds of ball al little bit. You will impress your date, throw in a real dinner and you might get married next year.

4. It’s just so damn cost efficient. Okay, if an average ticket costs $130-$140 (RIDICULOUS) for a ticket and you get two for that amount you just doubled your effort just by going to a website.

3. The show that got away. I know there is a show that you wanted to see but, not as much a Color Purple or Hamilton, so many other good musicals or plays got the shaft. Now is your chance to catch up on one of those great shows.

2. Hollywood is here. So if you want to see huge star power this isn’t the number for you. But if you want to see a hilarious, hardworking entertainer, go see Wayne Brady in Kinky Boots. It’s an amazing show and Brady lights up the stage.

1. It’s Broadway. It’s Broadway. It is Broadway. The theater is already one of the few great American institutions. It’s like finding couture in a bargain bin. When it happens. You don’t question. You just go.
