Will High Fidelity have RushSroLottery? If so what is the policy? I looked on talkin broadway and they don't list anything

If it does the same policy DRS had...then...

There'll be a lotto. Names pulled 2 hours before curtain. Up to 2 tickets per person, 26.25 each. Seats in the boxes.

Why would you assume it'll have the same policy as DRS? The only thing that it has in common with DRS is that its at the Imperial. Lottos do seem to be the "trend" nowadays, but that doesn't guarantee anything.

FWIW, in Boston, they are having a lotto for $20 and hour before the show and then rush for $25 after.

thank you so much for the Boston info! I am going up on Sunday the 8th and was hoping to catch the matinee as well as seeing the evening performance, which I already have a ticket to!

How original. A new musical trying out out of town in Boston reminds me of the good old days

Rush is NOT offered on Saturday evening performances.

^ That was from Broadway Across America.

Okay, let's get the facts straight. There is no lotto...just the typical student rush policy. If you want proof:

Call the Colonial Theater directly.

You will get a recording.

Press 6 to listen to the rush policy.

Press 0 to speak to the operator at the Colonial and ask her about the lotto/rush and she'll (or he'll) tell you there's a rush but no lotto.

Wow. I totally pulled that from nowhere.

I could have sworn I read the lottery/rush thing in an email about High Fidelity, but I just went back and looked for the email, and it only mentioned $25 rush.

I know I read that somewhere, must have been for a different show. Now I'm confused! Sorry for spewing bad info!

You know what timote? Someone just told me there was info about a HF lottery in today's Globe...2.5 hrs before performance, 20 bucks, 26 seats. And there's also rush...but I called the Colonial and they said no.

I'm confused. I hope the Globe was wrong.
