Into The Woods - TIX / LOTTO / LINE — Page 6

You can go to the bathroom just make sure you tell the people behind you and maybe ask them to watch your stuff. That's what I always say as a nice way of telling them I'm going to the bathroom. That is one of the only acceptable reasons to leave the line. That said, I wouldn't go to the bathroom until the park opens and the line is ushered into the park as it is a bit of a free for all on Central Park West and no guarantee your spot would be held and the rules would be enforced.

Any attire goes. Waiting in line, dress very comfortably. No need to dress up at all. For the show, if you have the ability to change, you may want to dress up a bit but people come in everything. Some people who probably are sponsors and are coming from work tend to be dressed nicely while others come in shorts and a tee shirt. I usually tend to dress quite casually (often what I wore in line) since I live in Jersey and can't usually change clothes and I've never felt underdressed

I'm very sorry for you.

I hate to do it, but I'm flying in on Saturday morning, so I wouldn't be able to make the line on my own, and I'm flying out Sunday night (8/12), when there's not even a performance. The problem is going to exist whether I'm there or not, and this show is the sole reason I'm making the trip, so I really want to be guaranteed a seat.

I was even willing to "donate" to the Public and pay $175 for both tickets, but when I called them, they said I HAD to pick 3 dates, since I can't be guaranteed my first choice. So I'm not going to spend $350 to maybe get tickets to a performance I can't attend. :-/

Yes, they try to honor 4 together but it's not 100% guaranteed. Any more than that and I've heard it work but 4 is almost always doable.

Broadwaydevil thank for the information. I hope I have cool people around me in line since I'm going to be there alone. I am really super stoked to see the show though!

---

I'm going to be in NY late in the run and I want to try to see it. the day I am planning to see it is about the Sunday before the final show. do you think it will be harder to get tickets as it gets closer to closing?

Going tomorrow. Does anyone think getting there between 3-4am is too late already? I know people have been there late the night before, but if I can avoid that, I will.

---

That's how I feel, Brian.

JBroadway - yes. That is also after press opening. It will be just about impossible. You will likely need to camp out.

Marianne2 - I haven't been in a week but from what I've heard that should be ok. I had friends get there yesterday at 4 and they were easily safe.

I arrived on the standby line 7/31 at around 6:00 and was not even close to get a ticket. It looked like if I had gotten there at 5 I may have gotten one.

I got in line around 3:30am yesterday and my friend and I were 5th and 6th in line. No one else showed up until 4:30 but then it was a steady stream of people showing up until they let us in.

You don't know your location until you pick up the tickets at the Delacorte. By the way, the tickets are printed with your name, so I guess that means it doesn't matter if you get there earlier or later, as long as you're within the time frame you're given.

The lotto seats are all over the place really. I've won it twice in the past few years and they were in completely different parts of the theater.

Standby was easy tonite. Got there at 6 by 715 had my ticket. The whole line was given ticket. Theatre had empty seats that people were allowed from park well past 9.
