I rushed Saturday night, got there around 4:45 and was about the 8th person in line. I got row J all the way to the left, it was pretty good - I missed some of stage right, but not too much. I'd say there were a good 40 people in line by 6:30. My friends were about the 15th in line and they were sitting on the right side of the theater.

Out of curiosity, those that have rushed, is the price a solid $36.50 or do they add a facility fee? Thanks!

The price was 36.50, no extra fees added.
I rushed on Sunday and was first in line. By the time they sold the tickets, there were probably 30 people in line. They told us they sold about 35 rush seats so after that some people counted down the line and just left anyway.
Does anyone know about the rush turning to lotto rumor? I keep hearing that from several people so I'm wondering if it's true. I heard Sunday was the last day for rush.

I asked the box office yesterday about rush vs lotto. They were supposed to start the lotto today but did not get they're act together soon enough so this week is still rush. The lotto will likely begin next week. Lotto seats will be the same as the rush seats.

You have to be kidding me. My friends and I have been planning on going to rush next Tuesday for like a month now. *sigh*

I was planning on rushing this in a couple weeks, but maybe I'll do it this week instead since I have the worst luck with lottos.

There were 70 people who did lotto Tuesday night, but only 28 for today's matinee.

the lotto for Wednesday's show was really crowded 60ish people were there

What are the details for lotto? Are the seats and price the same as rush?
And is it wrong that I am amused that "60ish people" is considered "really crowded"? Clearly you've never done the lotto for Wicked or In The Heights. :)

I don't think that many people know about the lotto yet. They haven't really announced it.

I was asking about details because it appears that people here have tried it.

I just meant that for having just started it, there was a fairly good sized crowd there. I've lottoed for both of those shows actually.

Oh, ok.
They actually have a very good place for picking up random walk-up traffic, so that probably added to it. There were a number of times I was at the lottery for The Drowsy Chaperone and people would stop as they were walking and ask what was going on and enter.

Any updates on this lately as far as crowds?
Are the seats still extreme side views?
It seems as if at worst, you can usually buy a ticket for this show at the last minute if you really want to.

I finally won lotto tickets for the very first time yesterday! Woohooo!!!!

The few times I went have not been terribly bad, and someone I was with has always won. I have been trying at the Marquis since Drowsy, and I have never won a lotto at that theatre, it's crazy! I have always gotten to see it because someone else in my group won.
Great, now I've jinxed it...
