ANyone know if they will be offering a regular rush now that they have moved to midtown? Or will sporadic discounts be available over the course of the run like they offered when it was downtown?

I don't know about rush, but there are discounts. On the show's Facebook page they announced a code for this weekend only, $29. A great deal! I used the BroadwayBox code for $59. Watch the show's Twitter and Facebook for more info.

Just posted on Facebook a couple of hours ago: RUSH ALERT - a limited number of $29 tickets will be available at the Box Office this week 2 hours before each show. 2 tickets per person. #TheCometIsComing

For more info, see the show's Facebook page.

mac-I saw that. I was hoping they'd say if it was cash only and if it was for ALL performances or just weekdays.

I hope you get an answer from the show, but when I was at the box office last week signing in, there was a guy there paying for two $29 tickets with a credit card.

Last week? They told me their box office wasn't open yet. I'd have gone then!
I'm going and I'll try using a card.

Only this week?

They have an offer code last week for $29 seats, so that's probably what that customer was doing.

Just got a $29 ticket for this afternoon.
His credit card thingy didn't work so I
paid cash. Only 3 people on line.

OK. Thanks for the tip. I don't usually carry cash, so I'll stop by before I pick up the ticket and see if it's working.

Dreaming, I was at the box office on Saturday. I'm sorry, I should have been more specific!

Yup-I was told they didn't HAVE one and would not until this week. That is weird.

Has anyone tried to buy rush tickets recently? Is it the same policy ($29 2 hours before curtain)? Thanks! !

I tried on Friday and it was the same policy.

I think they updated their policy. Per the facebook page:

Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812
The Great Comet gives you quite the RUSH. A limited number of $49 tickets will be available at the box office two hours before performances begin.

For rush, $49 is quite a lot.

Fuuuuuck! I knew I should have rushed when it was $29. $49 is absurd for rush.

When I rushed it, I was talking to the box office guy and he said that the producers were wary of even having a rush at all because there is such a price discrepancy between the rush and the normal price. So them raising it to $49 makes sense, especially in such a small space. Even though it is a little much, I think it's still a good deal because as far as I know there isn't a specific "rush seating" so you are getting the exact same experience as someone who paid $125.

$49 for rush?! I was planning on rushing next week, but now I'm thinking I won't.

For what it's worth, I just got a rush ticket for $29.
