Kaila Mullady beatboxed a bit and did one of the skits later in the show when I was there on 9/14 as well, though she wasn't the main performer. I saw Slave Play on Thursday and when we walked by the theater, Iglehart was doing the stage door so assume he was in that day as well.

Was also at the 7pm show on Flea day. My friend won the lottery (actually three people I know won. We were scattered through the theatre...two in front row orch, two front row mezz, and I was third row orch centre). The show flew buy and I laughed so hard my face hurt. Ian Armitage from Young Sheldon was behind me the whole show, and so into it, calling out suggestions.
The Yonder pouch presented zero issues as there are multiple ushers at the end of each row to unlock them. It took seconds. And they had no issue with us taking a playbill/stage pic before or after the show (either from the back before they lock your phone or from your seat after they unlock). We asked and they told us to go ahead. For reference, this was taken at my seat after the show on my way out:

I already can’t wait to go back in December. I wasn’t sure this show would be my thing, but I enjoyed every second. If you enjoy Whose Line Is It Anyway, this one is for you.

I'd assume Wayne Brady won't be there until the tail end of its run. He's finishing filming Let's Make A Deal, then he's on tour in October.

For people who are keeping track:
I saw the 10pm show on Saturday night (9/21). James Monroe Iglehart and Chris Jackson were both on. Aneesa Folds was performing instead of Utkarsh Ambudkar.
Enjoyed the show a lot! I may make a return visit toward the end of the run!

We saw the 10:00 PM show on Sunday, 9/22 via the online lottery, $35 each. Seats were AA 101-102. Guests were James Monroe Iglehart (J-Soul) and Ian Weinberger (Keys/Burger Time). I would love to see this show again to see how different it is, if I can fit it into a future trip. A really fun and energetic show, and the cast shared some very touching stories.

I think the rush is a brand new thing, as they initially only had the lottery. I rushed on Flea Market Sunday (9/22) and I walked in around 12:30 after the box office opened and had zero issue. Obviously at some point after word of mouth spreads and reviews come out and whatnot, that may very well change

On Saturday, I went to the box office around 12:45pm and picked up 1 rush ticket for the 10pm show without a problem. $40, cash or card Seat was row E of the Mezzanine on the far house right isle. Still a great seat! No sight-line issues whatsoever, and the Booth is intimate enough that even those rear mezz seats don't feel miles away.

I had the same thought, and it doesn't help that IOBDB has mistakenly listed them as the same person:

Our cast included Christopher Jackson and James Monroe Iglehart. So many hilarious jokes/skits. Definitely worth seeing. My friend and I seriously want to see it again. Also, in case you all care about the stage door, it wasn't crazy at all and they all signed (ironically, we did actually stay for this one even though we never do)."
I also won the lottery for the Saturday 9/21 7PM show which also had Jackson and Monroe Iglehart. We were in the second row center.
I would see Jame Monroe Iglehart in anything (have seen him in Aladdin, Hamilton, Hercules and now FLS) his energy is just fantastic and he's incredibly talented.
As a big fan of Whose Line is it Anyway and improv comedy in general, I thoroughly enjoyed the show and would recommend it to anyone. Understand you are getting a very different experience than a typical "musical".

Try your luck on the lottery. I entered on Sunday and won for Monday at 10. I don't think that show is selling as well. Seats were front row and show was excellent. I had minimal interest, but I entered since a friend was dying to go.

Are you allowed to bring in a digital camera? Does it also go in the Yondr pouch? Thanks!

Most likely. I remember them mentioning that anything with a camera had to be pouched

Any recent lottery winners with seat location info appreciated.
Also, when you pick the tickets from box office, were tickets preassigned by names or first come first serve to get the best seats in the lottery pool?
"
We were center orchestra B. Dont recall if they were named or not, but we got there 30 minutes prior and there was one lottery couple who was there before us and they got the two aisle seats, so it may be first come first served.
Enjoy the show, hopefully you get JMI who has done the last several Saturday shows I believe (including last Saturday when I saw it).

They’re all over. I went with four friends (plus ones) who all won the lottery the same day. Two of them were front row centre, I was third row centre, two more were front row of the mezz, and two others were back orch. They were preassigned before we got there. My friend and I picked ours up last and they already had our seat numbers on them.

When was it?
Did you purchase your tickets all at the same time?
I did ours after 20 minutes of receiving the email.
Thanks for the detailed answer.

I clicked on the email link right away and purchased within the first 2 minutes. We were assigned AA 101-102. Sometime prior to the show, I received an official Telecharge email thanking me for my purchase. The tickets were preassigned with my name printed on both tickets. Hope this helps.

We all did it as soon as we got the email, though I don’t know the exact order of us accepting.

I think it’s random. I’m fairly positive I got my tickets around 11 or so the day we won. I got the email two hours prior.They had them pre-selected and under my name. Basically it’s just like if you bought your seat and had your tickets held at will call. I will say we had our seats written on the back of our tickets so whatever seat we had originally were not the seats we ended up getting."
Where were your seats located?
Posted: 9/29/19 at 12:26am
Saw this tonight via lottery. Seats were row BB 10 and 12? center. so good! about 80 min as promised
chris jackson was in it/the guest.
the yondr pouch thing is quick. i noticed some people put their (edit: apple) watches in and some people wore them. the audience participation can be cringe at times but what they do with the longer conversations is magical.
saw anne hathaway in the audience !
