Theatre Development Fund Places High Brightness LCDs in TKTS Discount Booth Windows

Theatre Development Fund , a not-for-profit organization for live theatre and dance, recently installed a pair of DynaScan high brightness LCDs in the front windows of its South Street Seaport TKTS Discount Booth. The TKTS Discount Booths  offer tickets to Broadway and Off Broadway musicals and plays at up to 50% off, giving producers a direct marketing tool for surplus seats.

Two DS55LT6  55″ 5000 nit ultra-high brightness LCDs with narrow bezels are mounted in a portrait orientation facing outward to the public. The pair of screens is used to display upcoming show times as well as the discount the booth offers for each showing. Because solar heat gain is a concern when placed behind glass, the displays include an ultra-quiet, high efficiency cooling system, and a high temperature resistant panel capable of reaching temperatures up to 110°C (240°F) before experiencing blackening defect.

If you are in Lower Manhattan and looking to see a musical – be sure to visit the South Street Seaport TKTS location.  Click here for location and hours .
