Yes, I believe the cancellations are available only at the box office a few hours prior and they are not discounted. Who would the second set be for? If you buy from the theater I think they are non-refundable. You'd have to scalp those! ;)

So it's safe to say that there won't be any of those last-minute $30 tix left for this performance!

Moi? *Scalp* tickets? What kind of person do you think I am?! ;-) But seriously, for the extra $5 I really would just waste the first set and replace 'em with the second--who'd buy 'em from me anyway if there were last-minute orchestra seats available for $10 less?

Oops, sorry, I mean "same-day" for the discounted tix. Sloppy terminology. However the box office may let you trade up from a full price box seat; you may have to ask what their policy and schedule for that is. The unused comps are generally released at the theaters a few hours before the show and you have to wait in line at the box office. Here's the thing, would you be free to do that or should I wait in line to sub for you (if they'd even let me)? Should I call?
