It's really a toss up. I do know there are some die-hard PATTI LUPONE GYPSY fans here in the city who have rushed the show many times throughout the run. And I have no doubt they will be rushing the final performance.
I say bundle up and get there early if you want to get a front row seat. If you don't mind getting put in the balcony after the front row people get tickets, you can get there a little later.
So, maybe get there at 5am to play it safe if you want front row. And 7am if you don't mind the balcony.
