"Next to Normal" Rush — Page 6

How is someone who sees the show repeatedly ridiculous? How exactly does it affect you?

I understand that certain people on rush lines can be a bit irritating, and too much to take. And your stuck listening to them because you have nowhere else to go.

But, they're buying tickets and lining up early just like everyone else. It doesn't matter if it's their 1st, 10th, or 100th time.

I did not rad through all of the pages--- cash only or card?

Thanks!

Just putting it out there before someone decides to accuse, no the person there every Sunday is NOT me. I have rushed exactly twice since n2n started on Broadway.

The cash/ card thing is entirely dependent on who is working the box office that morning. The heavyset man will let you use a card, no problem. The man with the beard (who is not as pleasant) insists on cash only.

They gave me some side orchestra tickets once after all the regular rush tickets were gone. I'm not sure if they do it all the time though.

somethingwicked...i'm 95% sure i know who you are talking about...i guess shes trying to make a name for herself lol. i'm not hating on her i just think its funny that i know who it is. if you love a show that much, enjoy it! if you can afford to go to see it 4 times a week, go ahead! some people have nothing else to do so why not? plus they could use a sales boost.

^^Even if a rush says it accepts credit cards, I always bring cash. I'm paranoid that way and I don't want to end up without tickets :).

I'm planning on trying the rush tomorrow once I get out of my morning class (9:15). I should be fine, right?

I went this morning for the rush around 9:45. I ended up being 9th in line. By the time I got to the front, they only had one seat in the front row, so we got box seats.

For what it's worth, I asked the woman if she could give me second row or side orchestra, but she said that she doesn't have as much leeway as she did before so it's pretty strict to front row and box seats.


(Another update) - I took a few friends this morning (5/6) to do the rush and we ended up getting there about the same time as last time (9:40). Only I guess the Tony nominations had a big effect. There were about 30 or so people in front of us, so the rush tickets were long gone by the time we got to the front. We opted to get the last row mezzanine though since the theater is so small.
