PRIMA FACIE Rush/Lottery

Has anyone either won the lottery or bought a rush ticket for the show yet?

The lottery has ten seats at $10 every show, and you have to enter online only, once a week for all of next week's performances.

But the website also alludes to a secret rush "starting at $20": We are pleased to announce The Prima Facie Pro Bono Project, which will offer a low-price ticket lottery and rush policy for every performance to ensure economic accessibility to the production for all. Further details about the initiative will be announced closer to the start of performances.

Well...the show has been going for two weeks and this hasn't been updated. Has anyone used this yet? Anyone know how this works? Would love to see the show, but the average ticket prices are $150+ and, frankly, I can't afford that.

Where were your seats?

I might try swinging by the box office tomorrow to see if they have any sort of last minute in-person kind of deal (or if the secret rush applies).

I did this last week and they offered a $77 prime center orchestra seat. Expensive for a rush but still an AMAZING deal. They said it wasn’t a rush ticket, but the ticket was labeled “rush” so I think they’re just trying to keep it hush hush

In line for rush tickets. Got here at 7:50( for 10 am ). 4 people in front of me.11 total people in line

In line at 0615 today (I am coming from GA, not taking any chances). No one here. One in line for Parade next door. Will keep this thread updated every hour if I remember!


EDIT: 0715: Only three of us in line.
EDIT: 0805: 9 in line.

EDIT: After those 9 came, a ton more came! I got two tickets for matinee, rear mez. Word on the street is they are not handing out many tickets at all for rush/lottery.

Thinking of rushing this Sunday! Do you know about how much you paid for your tickets and where they were located?

Any updates on what time to arrive for a Sunday rush and/or how many tickets they usually sell? Thank you!

I followed the advice in this thread and showed up at 6am for a Friday performance. It is memorial day weekend so I thought there would be a lot of folks rushing. Instead I was first in line and alone for almost an hour, then from 7-8 there were only two of us. Lots more have come since 8, so just wanted to share in case it makes a difference for folks coming on a weekday - if today is any indication you could be just fine showing up at 7/7:30. Thanks to all who shared previous experiences!

Any updates on the in-person rush for this final week?

Are they still only selling 10 tickets per performance?

How early are people getting there?

I went by the Golden Theater at approximately 12:08am tonight. There were already at least 11 people in the Prima Facie rush line for the final performance.
