Angels in America rush + lottery reports — Page 4

LuminousBeing said: "Our seats were Orch row K, extremeright. They were very slightly obstructed for scenes taking place house right, but it was an otherwise absolutely perfect view. I'm still in shock that my friend won. This was the best play experience I've ever had. Note to those trying for last-minute rush: they didn't have any 30 minutes before curtain today; someone tried to buy rush at that time when we picked up our lotto tickets, and the box office will decline to sell rush for only Part I on marathon days when they do have it. Good luck, all!"

So glad you got to see it! I was in the same row when I won. A glorious production.

For anyone wondering, I'd say house right is better than house left if you're going for far side orchestra.

I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a set amount of rush tickets or if it's just what's not sold?

I want to rush for the last set of shows at the end of June but I'm worried, since it's the last performance, it will be sold out.

anyone rushed lately?? I'm planning on trying for both parts on saturday and will report back but wouldn't mind some more recent reports about arrival times locations etc.

If I'm planning on rushing for Thursday Part 1, do I then have to rush again for part 2? Or do they sell them in bulk?

Also, what time does one arrive lately? Thank you!

That's correct. When I rushed on Wednesday I purchased rush tickets to both parts and it was a total of $90 which took me by surprise. I'm obviously very thankful they offer a rush, but they should update that on their site.

Public transportation was NOT in my favor so i got to the rush line at 9:25, around an hour later than I had planned, and the rush ran out somewhere around 5-10 people in front of me. They offered me an orch seat for 99/part - row G seat 7 - and I took it. Double the price I had planned for but I just got a refund for a ticket for a cancelled concert so I went for it and am super excited to see this show! I didn’t catch when the people in the front got in line but by 9:30 there were a solid 30-35 people.

edit: ahh I’m on the wrong account but this is springwillcome -_-

Any recent weekend rush reports? Or anyone planning to rush this weekend? I'm going to be rushing Saturday, May 12th, and just want to see if the Tony noms make the line up any earlier. Thanks!

Any reports from last Saturday? Was thinking about rushing this saturday.

I saw part 1 on a Sunday in April and was wondering why part 2 is not in the lottery anymore. I won twice that too, but couldn't make it to NYC (from ~DC) Only Friday is available for part 2 lotto (wasn't it supposed to be bundled?) And Wednesday. Also the price is 45, not 37. What is going on? Thanks!

Hey MNL, the prices have gone up for the lottery (and rush as well, I believe). It ends up being 47 with the handling fee. I am coincidentally selling two Part II tickets for the show tonight at 7 PM for 43 each (got them on TDF), in case you (or anyone else) is interested.



Won the lottery yesterday for Part I, Mezzanine Center Row M, and for me it was way too far back. I couldn't distinguish the facial expressions and it made it difficult for me to really connect to the emotional content. I would bring binoculars for next time I pick up tickets 30 minutes before a show, in case they end up being so far back again. Two other friends won lottery as well--one was in Mezzanine Center Row T, the other up front in great seats in the Orchestra. So you really never know...
