What are the chances of getting 3 hairspray tickets for a sunday mattinee at TKTS?

If thats not possible, what about The Color Purple??

TKTS and Rush are different things.

Both Hairspray and The Color Purple used to be on TKTS pretty regularly...but lately they've been harder to come by. It's possible they'll be up there.

The Color Purple has rush ~ where you wait in line and can get up to 2 tickets per person when the box office opens. But plan on getting there WAY early. When I've walked by, people have been set up with blankets and stuff in chairs like they were there almost all night.

Hairspray has lottery. 3 hours before curtain, they take names. 2.5 hours before curtain, they draw names for $25 front row seats. You can sign up for 2 per person. The odds of TWO in a party getting drawn? It's happened...but I wouldn't count on it.
