Come from Away - Rush lineups

I will be in NYC in two weeks' time for the weekend, and hoping to see Come From Away. I know they do rush tickets but I am wondering what the demand is like right now - how far ahead of the BO opening would we need to consider lining up?

There is a separate thread for this, but I went 2 weeks ago on a Saturday at 6:30am. I was probably 12th in line and got standing room for the matinee. I'd recommend getting there around 6am for best availability on a 2 show day.

I feel like I thought there was a longer thread but there's one with some reports and info. Also my experience: I didn't rush this show but I rushed Hello Dolly on a Friday and at 5AM-6:30 I wandered because no one was at Dolly and there were 2 people at 5, 4 people by 6, and then around 6-8 people by 6:30. Still shorter than DEH's line across the street!

Do you need a seat or SRO would suffice?

From personal experience, SRO is a better view. And you don't have to get there super early. I got there this past Saturday at 7am and got the first SRO ticket for the matinee. People that arrived at 9am also got SRO.
