Has anyone rushed HOW TO SUCCEED yet? If so, how long before the box office opens must one arrive to obtain a rush seat?

How many rush seats are there?

And where are they located?

Thanks.

I arrived at 7:45 this morning and was 4th in line. There weren't 10 people in line until about 8:30-8:45ish. By the time I left at 9:30 (a friend did waited the last half hr for me), there were 15-20 people in line. Someone else might be able to answer how may tickets are sold. I would recommend arriving between 8 and 8:30 to be safe.

I agree with CocketedOptimist2. If you get there between 8 and 8:30am, you will be fine! (i rushed it on Tuesday)

Rushing early was not necessary for me. I got there at 10:15 on wednesday and got B10 and B12 in the orchestra. Hardly partial view, great seats!

Getting there early doesn't seem to be necessary at all. Got to the box office sometime between 1:30 and 2:00 yesterday afternoon and still got a ticket.

Is it Student Rush only or can poor old people get tickets as well?

It's general rush, you don't have to be a student.

General Rush: $30 - tickets available on day of performance when box office opens. Limit 2 per customer. Subject to availability.

When I rushed last night, I sat in the left box. Great view of the actors. All I missed were pieces of the set.

Is it possible to get tickets just a few hours before curtain? For example if I went to the Book of Mormon lottery and lost, would there still be tix left if I ran right over to H2$?

To answer your question shrekster, yes. I lost the mormon lottery this Wednesday, and got a rush ticket to HOW TO SUCCEED right after. I had the 8th row left side orch and it was amazing!
And rorschach the sets were incredible, very well done and you could tell they spared no expense. I couldn't stop thinking about how fluid the sets made the show and how well they were incorporated.

How far left did you sit? We have 9th row all the way against the wall tonight and I am slightly concerned.

All the way to the left, and it was a very good view, i didnt miss anything except when the office would slide out on the left and thats only twice for about a minute. Don't worry, you'll love it.

For those who have tried it already, what would be my odds of scoring a rush seats for H2$ for a Sunday matinee?

I'm considering going on the 27th since my schedule will finally be free (since my school production of Anything Goes will have ended)
