I did it last Thursday and got there around 6 when they start selling the rush tickets, and had not problem getting one. There was only one person waiting ahead of me. It was a great seat too in the first row of the loge.
My second time seeing Young Frankenstein, first time being previews in Seattle, and both Roger and Christopher Fitzgerald were out. I was soo bummed because I was only there for about a week, and couldn't go another night. The understudies were pretty good if I recall, but still not the same. But I was able to see it a few more times after moving here for school in the fall, so it worked out.
My friend and I did the lotto two Saturday's ago for the matinee and there were maybe 30-35 people, and it looked like everyone who wanted them, got them.
I went last Saturday for the matinee and got there around 9 and there were 6 people ahead of me, and by the time the box office opened, there were about about 20 people in line total.
Does anyone know how the rush has been on Saturday matinee's? I was planning on doing it this Saturday, but I'm not sure if it will be more crowded since it has opened. Also, who usually comes out after the show? Thanks for any info!
