Okay, so I'm back home. No rush for me today. Thank goodness I live 5 minutes from New York City. The rush policy has been changed.
My mom, sister, and I went to the box office at about 10:30 or so, and we sat there behind some people for maybe 5 or 10 minutes. When the girl in front of me told me that she was in line for standing room I was surprised because I had thought that she was in line for rush. My mom talked to the guy who's in charge of the rush lines and whatnot and told us that the box office is now selling rush tickets for both performances at 10:00. Which means, for two day shows, the box office will sell tickets promptly when it opens. Wake up very early people.
If I get some of my facts wrong please don't shoot the messenger. This is all coming from my mom, who got the info from the guy at the theatre.
Since I live a couple of minutes from NYC, I'll probably hit rush in a couple of days. Instead I watched "Little Miss Sunshine" which was by far one the funniest movies I've ever seen!
EDIT: I also forgot to add that the new policy started just yesterday.
STUDENT RUSH POLICY - Subject to availability, rush tickets are sold at the box office on the day of the performance to any student who holds a valid ID as well as a valid government issue ID. Tickets are $26.25 and 2 are available per person, per calendar month. Tickets go on sale when the box office opens. Effective beginning Tuesday, August 15.
