My 12-year-old son would do anything to see this live but NBC is worried that a 2-year-old is going to stand up and run onstage during the performance so he can't go."
Is your son 12 or 2?"
My son is 12, but NBC is worried that a random 2 yr-old will run onstage and ruin the show, so my 12 yr old son can't go."
Ohhh. I was confused.
Why would someone take a 2yr old to JCS???

I'm really torn"
Pit section means standing for a long period of time, but it also means being close to the action. Seated section means you're further away from the action, but you get to sit and rest your feet during the show."
Am I the only one that finds it ironic that you'll be standing in the pit??
Also...the age limit is 18?? That's overkill...I'd even accept 10, because at least one can discern how their 10 year old would act...

Except read all the comments about children's behavior at the theater....they want to avoid all of that during a live performance. Most live tv shows have an 18+ policy. I don't blame them.

Pit section is created for visual purposes as this is a concert-staging and having people standing and carrying on provides the desired atmosphere the camera will be capturing. Having people sitting in a traditional theatre scenario does NOT provide this atmosphere 'on camera.'
ALL TV tapings/broadcasts have an 18 years and older requirement. Even family-safe LIVE WITH KELLY & RYAN. Avoids any headaches in general, regardless of what the show and its demographic is. This is standard policy not one being use just for this JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR: LIVE! broadcast.

Has anyone actually been told they've received tickets? Or are we all still on the waitlist? Trying to decide whether to get my hopes up, haha. I've never done anything like this... how far in advance do they usually tell you that you're going?

I'm going to give my best guess saying we're all still waitlisted. It seems everyone has a different story as to when they were told. When I requested Fallon tickets (which I swear I mentioned this on this thread and it seems to be not here here anymore...) and didn't hear a thing by the day before my requested date, I figured I didn't get them. Literally, 10 AM the day OF, I get emailed saying I'm off the waitlist and to get to Rockefeller Center by 3 PM or whatever the arrival time is for his taping. We didn't get the guarantee that we were in the audience until we got this brightly colored wristband and told to go to go into this circular-dish waiting room. How JCS will work, who knows since it's a one time thing, but I'm going with the flow until I get an email or some notice on my account saying SOMETHING of some kind.

Not always. Yes, all shows have a rule that you must be 18+ to attend on your own (for legal identification purposes). However, KELLY AND RYAN allows for 10+ with parental accompaniment. THE CHEW allows for 14+, and GOOD MORNING AMERICA allows 16+.
The late night shows are a different story...

Exciting people are starting to get off waitlist! I just got on it a couple days ago, didn't know if I'd be in town or not and waited too long, I'm afraid, not hopeful I'll get a ticket but you never know...how long have people been on waitlist?

Did anyone get off the waitlist for the actual performance on Sunday, not rehearsal?

Seated! I assume they're going through the waitlist for Saturday before doing Sunday.

Wait, some are already getting guaranteed tickets?? DANG! I'm still on the waitlist...*crossing fingers*

Posted: 3/27/18 at 4:15pmCongratulations to all who have gotten tickets so far. Still waiting here. Though as someone posted earlier, one shouldn’t be shocked if they get a confirmation the day of show. I’ve had it happen too. Fingers crossed for all of us who entered and haven’t heard anything yet!

Ha that might have been me, it was when I got tickets for Fallon. It was indeed day of, but still wasn't entirely a confirmation, it was the "You're off the waitlist, but you're still not guaranteed to be in the audience just yet" scenario.
Question, do earlier requests on 1iota get priority, or no? As in, the earlier you put in a request, the better chance you have? I recall requesting Fallon the day it went live, but again never heard anything until the day of. I know that having a more complete profile and having been in the audience for something else previously does help one's chances for other things but that's all I really know. Of course I'm crossing my fingers, but I also know this is a loooonngggg shot, I can't even imagine the amount of people who requested this. I'm mostly just curious about the above, I truly wouldn't be butthurt if I didn't get these.
