Think about The Villages golf tee time system. You must be a Village Resident to place an online request for a tee time, up to a week in advance. Three days prior to your requested play date the tee time and course is assigned. Once those times are assigned then the unassigned open times become available for any resident. A modified version of this could work for The Sharon, possibly for known certain high attendance shows only. For example RESIDENTS ONLY could place an online request (max 6 to 8 per request), for the ticket price they prefer, the day the tickets would normally go on sale. Three days later these requests would be assigned based on the time the request was made. After the three day ticket requests are assigned then remaining tickets could go on sale to the general public. Yes in this case you could not pick your specific seats, but at least you would get a seat at face value, and RESIDENTS would get first dibs. Possibly this idea could be tweaked to work in a more efficient and equitable manner so let the conversation start here.
