Hiptix for Cabaret (yes, rear mezz) have been sold out for months, at least for this part of the run. It's worth signing up to give it a try, of course, but I wouldn't expect to find seats. I've had multiple issues with their web system when logged into my Hiptix account, so your best bet is to call Audience Services and talk to an actual person. They're really nice. Their rush is kind of a crapshoot because it depends on availability. Pretty sure you can get them when the box office opens at 10 am. I wanted cheap(er) tickets to Cabaret and I hate the Studio 54 rear mezz, so what I ended up doing was putting down the extra $75 for a Hiptix Gold membership, and then buying my Cabaret tickets for $25 each. So they ended up being $62.50 each, and they were orchestra seats, which all things considered was pretty reasonable.
(Also, Hiptix is not just for students; it's for anyone under 35, and your +1 can be any age.)
Anyway, I hope you and your daughter get to see it, it's the most magnificent thing.
I rushed Lady Day BEFORE the Tonys and it was bonkers. Got there like 20 minutes before the box office opened on a Sunday, there was a short line, but there were no actual rush seats because the performance was nearly sold out. They had like five remaining tickets that they were selling at full price, and standing room -- so we ended up going with the SRO. I think they were $30 each and the show is short. Also, if you want to see what's on TKTS in real time, get the TDF app. You can also see what's been on recently by looking at their website.
