AHHH! CONGRATULATIONS!! I'M UTILIZING MY EXCLAMATION POINTS AND I HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN THE SHOW!! Your joy is infectious and I'm tearing up a bit reading about your awesome experience. You totally deserve it, you are such a sweetheart! Thank you for sharing your secrets and amazing story, this is seriously the loveliest and most helpful response I've ever gotten online! To be perfectly honest, I'm actually pretty excited for the line-waiting experience--it's going to be amazing to be around such...

Terribly sorry for spamming up this thread, but @gatorgirl2, when you were there, do you know approximately how many people got tickets? My sister is interested in tagging along and I'm a bit nervous bumping up our number to three.

@gatorgirl2Thank you so much for the insight! A few more questions if you have the time: would a blanket be alright? We'd love to play some cards or a board game with the people around us to pass the time. Also, what are the rules for getting in/getting out of line (to go to the bathroom, get food, etc). I suppose that technically since each of us could by two tickets the people around us wouldn't mind, but we're packing thermoses full of coffee and I am in no mood to pull the old NYE in Time...

Though I am still a swing, Ms. "Broadway Legend" :)

Agh! That's embarrassing! I totally forgot that I signed up during my mad Gentleman's Guide obsession and I think my computer remembered my password.

Sorry, I'm new to the site and this isn't really a "reply" to your response, per se, but rather a reply to the thread! Spurred by the news of Lin's departure, a friend and I were planning on heading up to the city the day after our last day of school (June 15th), stay at a friend's apartment, and start to wait in line at like 4 or 5am. After reading these most recent posts I'm starting to think that we might be better off waiting in line overnight. Does anyone know the legality of this? I kno...

Awesome! Thank you for the information! :)

Hi! I'm so glad that you lucked out, I'm hoping to make the pilgrimage soon (in the middle of February, natch) and I was curious (though this may be obvious)--where exactly do you sit? I don't want to sit down in the wrong spot and lose my potential place in line!

Impressive (and a Saturday show too)! Per your opinion, do you think arriving near 8:00 (8:20 at the absolute latest) would do the trick to snag tickets for a group of 4 for a Sunday matinee? Oh, and I hope you enjoyed/will enjoy/are enjoying the show!

I apologize, I didn't see. I hate duplicate postings as much as the next guy. But thank you, that post was quite helpful!

I was thinking about hiring a taskrabbit to wait in line, do you know how many tickets can be purchased at once?

Myself and two friends were planning on making it into the city on July 13th to see the matinee of this show. That being said, we're high school students who don't have the money to spend $150 on a single ticket, the student discount is only valid for those with a college ID. We were considering balcony seats, but I've heard terrible things about the Walter Kerr balcony situation (it used to be a lighting booth! you can't see anything! I felt so removed from the action! etc.) Ergo, we are con...
