It's not just a lottery anymore?

No, I think they still have lottery, but they are also offering student rush...

Hmm...that's cool. I wonder why they are doing it.
And they are definitley still doing lotto? I could see them doing student rush INSTEAD just because of the Wicked lotto...

That's cool if it's both though. Is the show really not doing well?

I got Student Rush (after loosing lotto) on 8-31 and my seat was Left Orchestra G 225. Despite being the last row the seat was still very good I thought. Definitely worth the $25.

Traci - do you know where any other student rushers sat for that performance?

Those are the $50 tix, last 2 rows of the orchestra. My friend and I had gotten those for just before Jesse left, but Barrett went on anyway (and I loved Barrett, but still had wanted to see Jesse). I would totally sit there for $25. It beats standing room and having to chance a late and possibly crowded lotto (though the lotto benches must rock some serious socks)

bsf- I won the lotto a couple weeks ago and we were in seats near the desk/band.

We didn't sit in the lotto benches.

Granted, we were one of the last names called.

Rush are usually row F and G on the sides, it depends on availability.

Something I'll look foward after those nasty November 1st deadlines.

So what is the availability like? Can you pretty much go to the box office at any time and get student rush tickets?

I did student rush on 9/9 around 6:15 PM for the night performance, and my seat was K101 - last row, center, aisle seat. Definitely worth the $25.

Suh-weet.

With a little work, I can finally get cheap tickets to the one show I've been dying to see without braving the Wicked crazies. So thrilled that they're doing this.

Is it still easy to just show up and get the student rush tickets?
