Hamilton Cancellation Line — Page 144

So it was a 15 hour wait today, but well worth it. We were first in line at 2:45 am and the next group showed up at 5am. There were around 30 by 10am and the usher told the last ten to just leave as there was no chance of them getting tickets today. They said today was not a day they anticipated a lot of tickets for the cancellation line. Those of us on the line were slightly nervous!

No tickets were released until about 5:45pm! We got ours first- 4 lottery tickets- all front row center and all together. Amazing. 

At about 6:30 the rest of our awesome line group started getting their tickets- we were all really starting to sweat it out. Seems in the end that they gave out about 12 or 13 standard tickets ($199) to the cancellation line, no premiums were offered and there might have been 1 SRO $40 ticket. A long, fantastic day!!! 

I've officially been up for 24 hours straight right now, but can't sleep because I'm still soaring from the show! 

9 people in line as of right now. Not sure the # of tickets per person. 

I'm okay with the way they do them. It would be a hassle to go down a list until you get winners, instead of the neat automated thing they have now. Why not give them instead to the people who waited out in the cancellation line all day.

No Sunday shows at the moment. Next one 9/11.

Just thought I'd ask how many people are in line at the moment for tonight's performance?  It's next Monday that I'm contemplating waiting in the cancellation line.

Got in line at 7A this morning (Tuesday) and am the 6th person. The two people who got here before me arrived at 6:10 AM. 

 

Tickets usually go on sale at half hour before curtain. The line starts at the door of the box office, and continues down toward the stage door (at least that's how it is now)

Hi guys! Just wondering, which day of the week seems to be the least busy for the cancellation line: Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday? I've been reading this thread and it seems like either Tuesday or Friday but I'm not sure. Thanks!

Who went on (understudy-wise) in the matinee today?

I don't know if I'm just being thick but I can't figure out how to actually comment a new message so I'm just doing it like this ??

Anyway, I'm flying in from the UK at the end of the month for mine and my mums 18th/50th birthday presents, and we were going to queue for cancellation tix, which is essentially why I wanted to come. We're coming on a Sunday afternoon so I thought doing it Monday would work well because we'll have the time difference in our favour, as getting up at 5am or whatever will feel like 10am. 

But - is Monday like general understudy day? Or is it only Javier that has Mondays off regularly? Because we're coming so far with mostly the sole purpose of seeing this show I'd ideally see as much of the main cast as poss, but I'll take what I can get! Also that week there are no Sunday shows so would he still take the Monday off?

Thanks lovelies xox

 

Monday is Javier's scheduled day off. If you see the show next Monday, you will see Michael Luwoye as Hamilton. He is new to the role, but response to him has been very positive.

I was wondering does the main cast normally perform on the Saturday matinee? I'm basically trying to figure out information on who goes on for everyone except Hamilton due to Javier's schedule. Thanks for any and all information. I really hope to see BVD this Saturday matinee sense he went on tonight!!

Are you basically trying to figure out information on who goes on for everyone except Hamilton due to Javier's schedule. 

Or, are you trying to figure out information on who goes on for everyone except Hamilton due to Javier's schedule.

Stand to the right of the box office if facing the theatre, not the left where the rules are posted. The line starts where the steps start. Hope that helps!
