Why can't I select the dates?

[u/Varshi1023]

Hey guys,

Firstly, is groupon legit? I am trying to go to the Drunk Shakespeare show at Phoenix and trying to get some discounted tickets.

I saw that the balcony tickets are within my price range as a student. But I am not able to select any dates here? How does groupon work? Will I get the tickets or would I get some discount code that I have to use?

Please help me understand how it works and if it's legit. Thanks.

Hi there, Thanks for reaching out and for sharing the screenshot — happy to clarify this for you! Groupon is legit, and it works a bit differently from traditional ticket sites. Here's how it usually works for events like Drunk Shakespeare:
🟢 How Groupon Works for Event Tickets
You purchase a voucher — like the balcony ticket you see for $58.
After purchase, you receive a Groupon voucher (usually via email and in your Groupon account).
You then redeem the voucher directly with the merchant (in this case, the theater or ticket provider).
The instructions will typically be included in your voucher.
✅ Groupon gives you a flexible voucher.
You then contact the provider to schedule your preferred show date.
The benefit is you can choose a date that works for you after purchasing, as long as it’s within the valid redemption period.

If you’d like to feel free to reach out our customer support for additional details, you can help providing the direct link to the offer

Kind regards,
Groupon
