Did a search and couldnt find anything...Does anybody have any idea if there will be a rush or lotto or something for Legally Blonde? I'm coming to NY the first week that it starts previews and need to get cheap tickets. Thanks for any help
I don't believe that has been officially released yet.
Though some have stated they've heard it's general rush. Not a lottery.

There is a discount code that I used for Legally Blonde on Broadwaybox.com

I stopped by the Palace this past weekend and they said that information regarding rush should be available by the end of this week.

Stopped by the Palace this morning. The policy is as follows:
Student rush only, day of. Two tickets per valid, photo student ID. ID is required both to purchase tickets and to enter the theatre.
Sounds pretty strict. I've never heard of ID required to enter. We'll see what happens. There you go!
Good. We can finally stop the phonies buying up the rush tickets and selling them for more than they're worth.
The ID required to enter thing sounds sort of like what I was told when I bought rush tickets to Jersey Boys in November. They printed the name from the ID on the ticket and said it had to match the ID shown at the door when you enter. But they never checked our ID when we gave our tickets that night.

Hm...thats weird...So if I'm a student and I buy 2 tickets but one is for my dad, will he still be able to enter the theatre?

ID at the door....sounds a bit too uncontrollable.

Do the tickets go on sale two hours before, or when the box office opens?
Oh yeah, I've heard the "ID to enter the theatre" thing before, too, at many shows, but I have never seen ANYONE check.
So when do tickets go on sale, and where are the seats? I'm going to the show on Monday night, but if the rush deal is any good, I may try to go to first preview, too....

I remember at Aida, they used to photocopy the student IDs when you got rush tickets. I don't think they ever did anything with them though.

I believe they used to do that at RENT when it first implemented it a decade ago.

As stated, day of. If it had been a specific time, I would have included that information. As far as the location of the SR seats, I don't know; someone else in Midtown can check with the box office and post. Rush starts Tuesday.
Do you have any idea how much they cost?

I heard front row from someone, but I don't know if that's true or not.

According to the box office person that I talked to, rush will not be available Tuesday and Wednesday due to a benefit that is occurring on the first two previews. It will then be effective, but as of Wednesday, they did not know if it was going to be balcony or front row.
