Macbeth or Sunday?

This is probably comparing apples to oranges...but I want to see either Macbeth or Sunday...George this weekend. Which should I see? I'm planning on student rushing whichever show I see, is there one show that is easier to rush than the other, or will one offer better seats?

I would say Macbeth just because it's closing first (Sunday extended to the end of June), but I haven't seen Macbeth, although I plan to soon. I did see Sunday and absolutely loved it.

Can you see both? I just saw both+South Pacific last weekend. Both are great.

But if you can only see one, I say Sunday.

I rushed both of the shows, and I had rear mezz for Sunday (well actually, I did the 26.50 ticket because the sr policy at Studio 54 is half off normal seats) and I found it really hard to engage in, the set was gorgeous however and if you can deal with not being able to see faces too well then I think you will be fine.

Macbeth I rushed for a Sat. Matinee about an hour before curtain and I got balcony seats, I had never seen/read Macbeth so it was really difficult for me to follow (definently not your traditional Macbeth).

My opinion of either show probably would have changed significantly had I had better seats, so my suggestion would be to scout out both and see where you can get better seats. I had a friend who rushed Macbeth and got partial view 2nd row seats that she said weren't too bad (they were behind a sink however).

Box offices generally open at noon on Sunday. I don't think these shows are any different.

Sunday.

Absolutely Macbeth! Good luck and enjoy whichever show you decide to see.

this may be redundant - but if the website for "Sunday...George" is showing no tickets for today, does that mean they will not be offering any rush tickets? (I'm just trying to save myself from going all the way to 54th if it's true)!

Go see both! Seriously. These are the two best productions I've seen in a very long time. Both are extremely smart, well directed, complete pieces of theatre. Both of examples of productions where the director truly understands the material and how to make it shine.
