which show would you say is easiest to get good tickets for at rush ...i'm going to the city for a matinee and have lunch reservations at 11:30 so i think that may be conflicting to the rush policies for some shows, which shows can I easily get tickets for?
thanks

probably DRS. Wicked has too many. DRS has around 30.


<--- the set of A Midsummer Night's Dream that I was assistant stage manager for during the 2007 season at the STNJ outdoor stage.

This may be a dumb question, but I'm going to threadjack for a sec so I don't start a new thread...sorry.

What is rushing? I'm going to NY in Nov and I would love to know the easiest, least expensive ways to get tickets.

SWEET CHARITY and CHICAGO has great rushes.

No lotteries, where you have a small chance of winning.

Automatic tickets for 26 dollars - and some in the front row!

rushign is buying a ticket the day of your show at the box office for generally $20 to $26. Every theatre has a different policies. Some are first come first serve, some require student IDs and other's have lotteries at given times. I would say your best bet for rush tickets would to do a normal or student rush show and just be at the box office at 10 when it opens, I like to avoid lotteries when I'm dead set on seeing a show.

Thank you so much!!! I really appreciate it. Does it have to be a NEw York student ID or can I use my UNLV one?

I'd think any student ID could be fine.

I know it is for the Lincoln Center for Piazza.

Here is a great site for finding out Rush policies:

depending on day of week/time of year, the Rent lotto sometimes has less people than tickets available.


when ducks grow thumbs then maybe my opinion will change.

Hairspraydoll -- There is some more info on ways to get not-too-expensive tickest in the FAQ at the top of the message board. Aigoo put it together -- it's quite informative *and* amusing :) That said, Patronus may have already answered all your questions :) Have fun!

That actually good to know. If Lennon is still running in November, I may actually see that with my open slot.
