#1Jerusalem: Rooster's Row
Posted: 7/3/11 at 11:37pmI know this has been discussed before, but I've never found a clear answer. Jerusalem's official site says "See the show in Rooster's Row" - a.k.a the front row. I realize they offered this for rush, but now they don't? If they don't, then do you have to pay premium for front row? Can someone please explain this to me?

Posted: 7/3/11 at 11:38pmI think they're back to giving out the front row at rush. They hand out t-shirts now to the first people on line that say "Rooster's Row."

Thanks adamgreer :)
Would you happen to know how early to get there in the morning for rush?

Posted: 7/4/11 at 12:12amI was front row when I saw JERUSALEM back in May. I had secured my seat with a discount, actually... I know they pick-and-choose with their rush policy nowadays.

Don't know but I would love to discuss Jerusalem. Is there a thread discussing the play? I'm new to this site. Is there a search for threads?
While I am here, just want to say that I loved Jerusalem in spite of several problems i had with it, and several murky aspects. I am in awe of it not only for Rylance, but for its consistently strong dialogue and poetry. But there is so much I don't fathom about the play. For instance, what was Rooster digging out of the ground at the very end of it? What do people think of the loud footsteps at the final curtain? Are they merely poetic or to be taken literally, and if so, metaphysically?
What do others think of this play? Do you share my belief that there were too many plot elements, Rooster's son? And what exactly is going on with the girl? Was she trying to seduce Rooster in her last scene? Is she his daughter? Why does she spend a year in the wagon? Why does she leave at the end of her reign as queen? Are there British myths that parallel and inform all these questions?
