What's the student rush like on the weekends? Any ideas on what time you'd have to show up in order to actually get tickets?

I can't give you specifics on rush...but the show is only at about 70% or so capacity. Obviously, it is more full on the weekends.

I was there just this past Sunday matinee and there were empty seats...not a huge amount....but enough that they probably wanted to sell them at rush.

I will say this: In my opinion, it is simply a brilliant piece of theater.

I remember the release saying it was only for certain performances -- I don't remember offhand which, but you should check.

Yeah, this is the policy per Playbill:

Equus
Student Rush: $31.50 - sold on the day of performance when the box office opens. Only available for the following performances: Tuesday & Wednesday evenings; Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday matinees. Subject to availability and discretion of management. Limit 2 tickets per valid ID.

I just didn't know if it's something really crazy where you've got to show up at 5AM or if you could show up around 8 and still be okay.

Oh, no, I know people who have gotten them pretty last minute.
