Iit's true that all New Yorkers can take advantage of any TKTS booth by the very fact of their mobility, but this philosophy—the idea that patrons should travel to a centralized, civic arts space for their cultural uplift—has proven over the past decades to rely on faulty logic.
TKTS was started to bring new audiences, especially lower-income people of color, into New York City theaters. Then and now, the locations for discount ticket sales haven’t reached as far needed into those communities.
