Hi! I wanted to start a new chat board for the Be More Chill rush since one hasn't been made yet. I'm gonna be in New York in a few weeks and am definitely gonna try and see the show. I just want to gauge the rush line so I know what time to get there. If you have a rush experience, please feel free to share!

Got there st 8:40 today (Saturday). I was about 40th in line and was able to get a ticket. Looks like all the seats are obstructed, and I’m not sure how many they have per show. The line got pretty long after me, I would guess by the time they opened there were about 90 people in line.

Makes sense as I'd think the point of previews is to get as many seats filled to help with word of mouth but I know some shows limit the number of rush tix regardless of how empty the theater is. I remember going to the Once on this Island lottery on a Monday evening back in November 2017 and one of the producers came out and told us all of us had won the lottery (there were 50-60 of us there)! We were elated!!!!

According to this tweet the box office didn't open on time for rush this morning... anyone else there?

I was also there Sunday. The website and box office listed different opening times, the actual time being 12 while the website said 10. If anyone's looking for more information on how rush went I wrote up a little guide on my blog https://weekdayupdates.wordpress.com/2019/02/19/be-more-chill-rush-guide/ on what I gathered, hope it's helpful!

Replying to follow this thread. Plan on rushing a weekday soon!

I'm pretty sure all box offices open at 12 on Sundays. I think the 10am website thing was prob just a flub

Anyone rush lately? Hoping to rush the Wednesday matinee this week and wondering what time I should get there.

Ouch, you're going to BV after BMC? Personally, I'd reverse the order. If you must go to BV, go to the matinee so you can get rid of that depressed feeling with BMC in the evening (can you tell I'm not a fan of BV?).
From what I've seen, single seats are easy to get a good spot for - they can be "fillers". If you're a pair or more, get there early for best seat options.
Not sure who you are asking about in the posts (e.g. rushing for evening or matinee?). Like I noted, mine was for the matinee.
Things may change next week after the show opens,but with Spring Break season passing already, I don't see a huge uptake anytime soon. Have fun!

Kendale1974 said: "Thank you both. I completely missed that the post I was referring to did say matinee. My bad.
Honestly we're hoping for Hadestown on that evening but I'm not sure they'll have a rush policy. I love the music!
My logic for the order was that's I've noticed slightly less energy from the audience and performers at matinees. I figure since BMC is still fresh it'll hold up, but I'm a little worried about BV and just thinking that the evening show would be better since it's wrapping up. Plus the rush lines are much smaller for BV and I think we'll get better seats for the BMC matinee vs. the evening performance."
Your logic is sound.

Kendale1974 - sounds perfectly fine. We all have our preferences... I also hope Hadestown has rush!
Also remember that each person can get 2 tickets, so you don't all need to be in the same line at the same time. Half of you (in case you're more than 2 ppl) can go to 1 line and half can go to the other :)

I got in line at 9:30am yesterday (Thu) and 11 ahead of me. By 10am, about 21 in line. I think everyone got in?

Any recent updates? Deciding whether to just fork $165 for this "Squip Zone" seating they promote.
