Hello, I am thinking of rushing phantom of the opera next week. What time should I get to the rush line? I was wondering because I know the show isn't very popular anymore.

I honestly don't think Phantom does standing room anymore? The show very rarely sells out nowadays, so I'd be surprised if they did. You can go to the box office and ask if they have any box seats, which are about $45. Sometimes, if they don't do the lotto, you can get the far sides of the front rows for $40 something as well.
Otherwise, it's about $80-$90 at the TKTS for pretty great seats.

Standing Room is only available when the performance is sold-out, and having worked there for a year, I can only think of one or two times where there was standing room. That said, it is back of the orchestra, but since it is raised seating, the Mezzanine overhang blocks some of the Phantom's scenes and you won't see the chandelier.

They have an online lottery for $40 tickets you could try - I've never played but have read that the tickets are in the first couple of rows. It's also on TDF a lot if you're a member/able to join.
