Hello everyone!
So I've seen Newsies twice and of course I'm obsessed like many people are. I'm planning to see it one more time before it closes. I have not tried to meet anyone at the stage door yet, but would like to try this time. Both times I've seen the show (a Tuesday night and a Sunday afternoon) I left the theater, did not notice anyone crowding in any particular area, and walked away. I've seen pictures of the stage door with barricades and tons of people, but this has not been my experience when I've gone. Can anyone tell me- do they put up the barricades after the theater clears out? Is that when everyone suddenly crowds around the doors? I want to be sure that I'm in the right place at the right time. From what I've read, the cast come out of the doors right in front of the theater and they come out about 15 minutes or so after the show ends. Is this correct? I'm planning to go on a Sunday when there is one show at 3pm. I'm hoping most of the cast comes out since it's a one show day?
Also- last time I saw Newsies (Sunday May 4th) I got rush tickets 1 hour before show time and sat 2nd row. I'm worried that tickets will be harder to get this time, since the show is closing. I've been checking Ticket Master each day this week and noticed that when I look at the next day's show, there are a ton of tickets. But then when I look the following afternoon for that night's show, there are not many left. I'm assuming this is because people are not buying in advance and a lot of people are rushing the show. Does this sound right? My plan is to get there early the day I go and hope to be near the front of the rush line. Good plan?
Thanks a ton!
