IF anyone is going and doesn't have a +1, I would be SO GRATEFUL if you would buy the second ticket for me and I can meet you later today to pay you for it!

I walked by on the way to work (shortly before 10) and it was already stretched onto 8th Avenue.

Would you even go buy a ticket even if they weren't? Or are you just going to add this information to your comprehensive ticketing and closing night information scrapbook?

Anyone have any word? Are they sold out yet? I'd like to stop by on my lunch break if there's still any hope of getting a ticket!

thanks in advance!

After picking up my tickets around 11:30ish, the line was shorter and only in front of the Golden Theatre. I suppose there are still tickets left. As I was about 200-250 in line I think. Worth a try!

I was there at 12:50 and it seemed like the entire rear mezzanine was available at that point.

I understand that, in true Public Theater fashion, seats were given out randomly. (Not front to back)


About an hour ago they said there were still tix avail.

Hadn't heard a word about this. Are they selling $20 tickets to the first preview or something?

Yep! $20 tickets to the first preview on September 20th. Two tickets allowed per person.

I got my ticket around 11am and got center mezz row C. I can't wait!

I forgot about this and just went to the box office. They only had rear mezz last row left.

Just stopped by the box office at 6:45pm. There are still tickets left in the last row of the Mezz. Only a handful.

This morning on my way to work, at 9:30am I saw a line that stretched from the box office, around the corner onto 8th avenue, and stopped on the corner of 44th & 8th. From what I understand, the line continued onto 44th soon after.

No, the line never reached 44th Street. It barely got to the midway point between 45th and 44th Street.

They said they were going to be giving away "goodies" to people in the line. Anyone know what they were?

P.S I went there before work at around 5:30pm and got 2 tickets for the last row of the rear mezz. So I doubt that they still have anymore if they continued to sell until 8.

I heard they gave out buttons, featuring either the logo or the tagline.
