Want to take my student daughter to this if I can get her to take a study break in the next few weeks...and wondering if the rush policy is still in place, how early to get there, and generally where the seats are. Thanks!

Last I heard
They are $26.50 and have been in the front row (Don't know if that has changed)
I've also heard of them being in the balcony so they might do front row first then whatever is left

They start with front row and then move to the rear mezz (possibly the balcony as well?) after those are gone - just be aware that the overhang is RIDICULOUS in that theater and you might want to use a discount code or something if you get there too late for front row.

Also, the box office will sometimes sell their front row rush in advance as regular tickets so those rush seats are kind of a crapshoot as well.

Good luck, and enjoy the show!

i rushed this past saturday. the rush seats are front row but i ended up moving up to the mezzanine (it was 1/2 empty) b/c the stage is high up. you'll be fine if you get there 30 minutes before the box office opens

Here's a tip: Rush as far away as possible from this dreadful show.
