Got extra Wicked tickets, Hamilton tickets, or premium seats to Kevin Hart you can’t use? Maybe you grabbed The Lion King tickets, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child theatre seats, or Othello tickets months ago and plans changed. Whatever the reason, learning how to resell theatre tickets and comedy show tickets the right way can put serious money back in your pocket — often 2–5× face value or more on the hottest dates.
QuickAsyst built this ultimate guide for theatre lovers and comedy fans holding tickets to the biggest Broadway shows, Off-Broadway hits, national tours, and stand-up specials: Wicked, Hamilton, Kevin Hart, The Lion King, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Othello, The Outsiders, Aladdin, Chicago, Nate Bargatze, Sebastian Maniscalco, Matt Rife, Nikki Glaser, Joy Koy, Chelsea Handler, Trevor Noah — and literally hundreds more plays, musicals, and comedians. QuickAsyst handles a myriad of entertainers far beyond just these marquee names, so no matter which show is on your unused ticket, we’ve got you covered.
QuickAsyst is the smartest (and easiest) way to resell theatre tickets and comedy show tickets because we instantly push your listing to every major marketplace — StubHub, SeatGeek, Ticketmaster, Vivid Seats, GameTime, TickPick, and more. One upload means your orchestra seats or comedy club passes are in front of 100% of the buyers already hunting for theatre tickets, Wicked tickets, Hamilton tickets, Kevin Hart, Othello tickets, The Lion King tickets, Harry Potter theatre, Matt Rife tour dates, Sebastian Maniscalco tour dates, Nikki Glaser tour dates, Chelsea handler tour dates, or even tickets for Trevor Noah. The list goes on and on, but you get the point. Ready to flip those show tickets?
When Can I Start Reselling Theatre & Comedy Show Tickets?
The moment your tickets are in your account (or the second the show goes on sale to the public), you can list them. Typical timelines:
- Broadway shows like Wicked, Hamilton, The Lion King, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, The Outsiders, Aladdin, and Chicago: On sale 6–12 months in advance.
- National tours (Matt Rife, Sebastian Maniscalco, Kevin Hart, Nate Bargatze, Nikki Glaser): Presales often start 8–10 months out.
- Limited runs and comedy specials (Chelsea Handler, Joy Koy, Trevor Noah): Can go on sale just 3–6 months ahead, but sell out in minutes.
The earlier you list, the higher the potential profit — resale demand explodes the day a hot show announces new blocks or extensions.
Best Time to Sell Theatre & Comedy Show Tickets for Maximum Profit
List EARLY. Prices almost always peak 60–150 days before curtains up, not the week of the show.
- Wicked tickets, Hamilton tickets, and The Lion King tickets routinely hit 3–6× face value 90–120 days out when tourists and groups finalize plans.
- Harry Potter and the Cursed Child theatre seats and The Outsiders explode right after award nominations or cast announcements.
- Comedy giants like Kevin Hart, Sebastian Maniscalco, Matt Rife, and Nate Bargatze see massive spikes 45–90 days before the show when fans realize the primary tickets are sold out.
- Nikki Glaser, Chelsea Handler, Joy Koy, and tickets for Trevor Noah often double or triple once clips go viral or new specials drop.
Last-minute sales still happen (especially in NYC or during tourist season), but you’ll almost always make significantly more by listing months ahead.
How Does QuickAsyst Price My Theatre & Comedy Show Tickets?
We don’t guess — we use live data from thousands of comparable sales across every marketplace. Our engine considers:
- Show heat (online buzz, viral moments, or surprise guest announcements)
- Seat location (orchestra center vs. mezzanine rear)
- Performance day (Saturday evening > Wednesday matinee)
- City & venue (Broadway houses and major comedy arenas outperform regional theatres)
- Real-time search and demand trends
Your Wicked tickets, Hamilton seats, Kevin Hart floor seats, The Lion King, or Matt Rife front-row — everything is monitored 24/7 and automatically repriced to squeeze out every dollar with zero effort from you.

Everywhere buyers are looking. One click distributes to:
- StubHub
- SeatGeek
- Ticketmaster
- Vivid Seats
- GameTime

- And every other major marketplace
That’s 5–10× more exposure than posting on just one site. Whether someone is searching “Wicked tickets Broadway,” “Kevin Hart near me,” “Matt Rife tour dates,” or “The Lion King tickets,” your listing appears on those resale platforms.
Is It Legal to Resell Theatre & Comedy Show Tickets?
Yes — in all 50 states you can legally resell tickets you own. A handful of states have minor rules (NY has a 10% markup cap on some venues, disclosure rules elsewhere), but individual sellers using established platforms like the ones QuickAsyst distributes to are 99.9% in the clear.
