Well, if you are going to a matinee, I would suggest that you get to the box office about 2 hours before they open, to be safe. However, the buzz has died down for this show, so you might not want to get there that early. However, I've done the rush twice, and got an orchestra seat from TKTS, and for the money, a little obstructed view is not that bad, for the price and being up so close. Definitely go for the rush, if you can. The seats that we had were in like row D or E Seats 1 and 2 ....and the ONLY thing that we couldn't see were the urchins in Da-Doo in the window. That was it. But we saw everything else perfectly. It was so much fun. Hope this helps!
Cheers,
The Balladeer
