Anyone know what time people are getting to the theater for matinee rushes... getting there at 9 or 9:30 was sufficient before but has that changed? Thanks!

Yes I belive you HAVE to get there two hours before the box office for matinees. And 4-5 hours before they begin to sell them for evening performances.

Well have people been getting there before 8 am now... I guess is a better question? I rushed for a matinee before and was the first one there at 9 am...

Since I'm not eligible for student rush, can you tell me if you are referring to student rush or cancellations? If it is 4-5 hours before they begin to sell them for evening performances, what time does the box office open? Basically, what is my best shot for cancellation tickets? Please and thank you...

Student rush is absolutely crazy now. I got there at 7 AM on Saturday and I was very close to the last one to get tickets.

Get there EXTREMELY early. I'm rushing on Sunday, and planning on getting there around 7 or 8.

I wouldn't be surprised if Jersey Boys substitutes the rush for a lottery, or gets rid of it all together, if people start showing up all that much earlier. The main reason Rent stopped having line is because people starting staying over, and it was often the same people. When I bought rush seats at Jersey Boys, they did not mark my name to keep me from trying again, and it seems like people are lining up earlier and earlier. Should be interesting. Hopefully they'll continue having a few affordable tickets in some way. I'd suggest they just have a general lottery, considering their were two grandmas in the "student" rush seats, that their grandchildren bought them, so it's not really possible to completely enforce the tickets be for students, no matter what.

I think on the weekends the rush is a little crazy. I had friends who went and rushed the Wednesday mat and although they were the first ones there at 7, other people didn't really show until around 9 or so, for tickets that went on sale at 11. That being said, I would play it safe and get there early. You are always guarnteed a good time standing in line outside the August Wilson theater!! Just asked anyone who rushed for the performance after the Tonys!! *random old men driving up blasting "Who Loves You" and getting out of the car and dancing with the girls in line, then driving away* That seriously happened.


elle...have fun on Sunday, it's my birthday and I really wanted to go and see it on that day, but the cards are stacked against me...I can't get off of work, and I can't find a babysitter...oh well...please let me know how Matthew is!!

Is there also standing room? Is it sold at the same time as student rush? Do people line up this early for that as well?

I'd wait a couple of months and probably it will be easy to get student tix for this show again. I bought my student rush ticket about 5 mins before the show started, before the Tonys.

Hey, I had a question about Jersey Boys rush, but I didn't want to start a new thread since we have so many. Also I searched but didn't find this, so I hope this is ok.

I've looked at talkinbroadway.com, this site, the official site, and the rush policy only lists the times that tickets go on sale for 2 o'clock, 3 o'clock, and 8 o'clock shows. I wanted to rush a Tuesday and those shows start at 7 o'clock, so I was wondering, does anyone know what time rush tickets go on sale for them? Ok, thanks!
