I know it's really early to ask this, but has anyone rushed it yet? I know MTC's rush sells out relatively early but I was debating on risking it and trying to rush around 6PM tonight. But the only other times I've done that for a show at the Friedman, the rush was sold out.

Also wondering about rush. I'm doing it regardless on Wednesday, but wasn't sure if I should get there at 10 or if I could sleep in a little bit and get there at 11:30/12ish.

I rushed the first preview and got front row mezz. I have a feeling this is going to sell extremely well, though.

Yeah, I'm not gonna rush tonight. It's the first Saturday performance...by time I get down there around 6ish, I'm sure rush will be gone.

Maybe next week. Really excited to see this.

I got so excited when I got a 30-under-30 email about this show today but it had the wrong information

..I really want to see it.

The show is sold out tonight. I tried to get a ticket about an hour ago.

Saw this last night. Rush is definitely tricky to get, but I had a great scene in the front mezz.

I don't know if she's just really come into the role since people saw it last, but I couldn't get enough of Frances McDormand. Don't get me wrong, Estelle Parsons was hysterical, as was Becky Ann Baker. McDormand's performance was really something, though. I thought it was so skillfully crafted and definitely getting easier and more natural. Just wanted to add my thoughts.

Some people paint, some people sew, I meddle.

Saw Saturday's matinee and thorougly enjoyed it, although I do agree that it's the kitchen sink sort of play, pretty much verging on soap opera -- not that there's anythng wrong with soap opera, but don't go expecting any in-depth forays into the mysteries of the universe. The acting was fine throughout and it moved along at a good pace.

One warning: I went to the box office with a flyer and they said that they had nothing on the flyer, just full price ($121.00). I immediately went to the TKS booth and got third row center orchestra for $90.30.

Saw this at Sunday's matinee. I really liked it.

I thought Act II was MUCH stronger than Act I. I enjoyed Act I -- enough to care about the characters and enough to look forward to intermission being over, but I just felt like all of the act was exposition.

I liked all of the performances, and loved the local (I'm from Boston) references. (Although I'm not really sure if Estelle's was quite a Tony nom worthy.)

The show was sold out, and had no problems with my 3rd row Mezz seat.
