ATC still displays rush info. If you're at the message board, just look at the buttons at the top. One of them says "Rush Board". It has all the same info there, but in thread form, with replies to give updates in information.

Except they don't have info for all the shows. Plus very few Off-Broadway.

Thanks - this comprehensive listing is so useful. No clue why Talkin' Broadway took down the listing they had.

I know! I went there to double check my information and was like, "Whoa! I guess it's a good thing I'm doing this!"

re: New up-to-date, comprehensive rush/SRO site

for Rock of Ages, you have seats listed in the first row for lottery, that's not entirely true. The first 4 seats (seats, not names) are in the front, the rest go up the sides and are partial view.

This is just phenomenal! Way to go, Claudia!!!
I am definitely going to use this (bookmarked)

What are your thoughts on the shows/box office workers who bend the rules? Is this worth noting or do you think "putting it in writing" adds a bit of a jinx?

Some ideas/pointers (to be taken with a grain of salt, since clearly you have already put a lot of time into making this)

- Don't forget to include the MTC 30-under-30 ticket deal (sorta their equivalent of HipTix)
Details here:
http://www.mtc-nyc.org/30under30/index.htm

- Perhaps consider adding popular Off-Broadway shows to the list?

- Perhaps consider adding Box Office locations and hours for each show?

- The red coloring is important (for the closing shows) but just on an aesthetics point, can you maybe make it just the Show Name box (instead of all the way across the row?)

re: New up-to-date, comprehensive rush/SRO site

That's a good point, Eug. I'll play with the coloring and see what I like better. At first, I just had the text red, but it didn't stand out enough.

I didn't mention the MTC 30-under-30 because most people who can use it can do student rush, which is cheaper, but I suppose I should include the information.

I'm hesitant to list anything that's not the official policy because I don't want people to assume that the rules will be bent for them. I'd rather they be pleasantly surprised when they get there then disappointed, you know? (Plus, I don't want anybody getting angry at me for misleading them.)

I didn't include off-Broadway because that's just too much to keep track of. Maybe if my page gets popular enough, I'll start an off-Broadway spinoff, but I don't know. Once the semester starts, I'll barely have time to keep the Broadway information updated.

Erlene, that is AWESOME! Telecharge didn't have that student price last I checked! I am totally adding that when I get home!

Nice work!

Another suggestion as well -- you don't need that much padding in the cells. None of the shows listed need that much room, so you can probably take it down 20 - 30 pixels.

re: New up-to-date, comprehensive rush/SRO site

Most of the space is for the Playbill covers. I'll see what I can do to minimize it.

re: New up-to-date, comprehensive rush/SRO site

FYI, on next to normal....

the first fourteen seats are in the front row (10 in the center, then 2 on each side). The remaining 12 seats are in the boxes (6 on each side), not the mezzanine sides.
