Yes, you can get 2 SRO tickets per person - asssuming of course, that any are offered/available. I went on a Saturday a few months back, and they released all the SRO tickets for the day at 10am. That day there were SRO for both shows.

Yup - pretty sure for rush/SRO of any show you can buy up to 2 tickets per person

Good luck! I'd say that there were around 16 SRO spots along the back. I think probably 3 of those were lotto. As long as you're close to the front you should be good

Actually all the Sro spots are lotto, they sell the unclaimed ones to the line. Two Sundays ago only 4 spots were sold.

It's Rachel Bay Jones's last show, so the line is probably going to be fuller than normal. There also might be less tickets show up for cancellation. Lining up at 10:30 PM is no longer the norm for this show.

A total of 3 SRO were sold today. I was next in line :/

Does anyone have an update on SRO for DEH? I'm planning to try for it this Wednesday and/or Thursday. Do people still line up early? Will they sell SRO for an evening show in the morning on a 2-show day? Did all the SROs go to the lotto, or did the cast changes affect that? Any updates would be appreciated! Thank you!

So, seat advice, is it allowed in this topic, right? haha

I saw that E16 is listed as partial view, but at aviewfromyseat a person said that she didn't miss anything from the show.

E15, the other side of the theater, the person said that in Words Fail she only saw the back of the actor.

So, does anyone seat in this seat? It's $150 with fees, it's a good deal, right? Opinions?

I haven't sat in that seat, but I would assume it's fine. You might miss some of the projections on the extreme side, and you probably won't be able to see Connor's bed during Requiem because you might be blocked by the sofa in the center of the stage. Other than that, the only thing you might miss would be Connor appearing at the end of Words Fail.

If you have a choice between those two seats, take house right (E16). Personally, I don't think anything far left is worth $150 because you will only see Evan's profile (he's facing house center/right during pivotal parts) during Words Fail which, wow, you really want to have him "facing you" during that one. 

Of course, if your only option is far left, go for it, but if you have a choice center/right is much better. And the view from Mezz is excellent too!

If any ody wants an SRO update, we arrived at 7:25 and only one person was in front of us (Wednesday). By 8:20, only 2 more joined the line. One person said they only sell 4 SRO per show to the people on line. Another person said they've never seen the line so short. I'll update again with results.

Did you get the tickets?

We did! The person in front of us wanted matinee and we wanted evening, so we were first in line for that performance. Got SRO spots 1 and 2. The girl in front of us got SRO for the mat. We didn't stick around to see what happened with the folks behind us. By 9:30 there were over 30 people in line.

Nice! Enjoy the show tonight! 

I will try to get SRO tickets in October.

Hi everyone!
Im visiting nyc in two weeks and deperately want to see DEH.
My questions are: does the box office sells any regular tickets? (Not sro)
If I want to score sro tickets, when would you advise to stand in line?
Also,
There is a date that fits my scheduel, in which I can buy a ticket for 129$ through todaytix (rearmezz obviously) - should I take it? Or most chances I will be able to score a ticket for a better price at the box office?
Thanks!
(Visiting from the middle east, hence all the questions)

I had been applying almost daily for the DEH lottery with no luck. I walked to the theater today 10/9 at 4:15pm and asked for standing room tickets and they gave me two center ones. Another guy after me got 2 tickets as well. Much better luck in person than on lottery!

$42. Great view from end of Orchestra. We got a seat as well after intermission as the last row seats were empty.

I’m thinking about playing the lottery this week, where is the seating usually located? Would Standing room only be a smarter option? Thanks.
