Rushed a couple weeks ago, got there at 645 being 4th in line, honestly would have been fine at 8.
However earlier is better since you're off to the side but still close to the center during a seat.
I know it would SEEM like the center is the best but honestly its not. having Sam and Andy belt in front of you is not as great as it seems, you are looking directly up their noses and its almost uncomfortable how close they are. I talked to the people who were in the direct center and they said it wasn't that great.
They do the rush directly from left to right and i would avoid the center TBH

Out of curiosity, is it the far left of the center section, or the far left of the entire row?
(I ask because I would worry about missing Vivian and Edward's scene on the balcony if I was on the far left of the left section of Row 1)

I was in the far left and can see them fine, its still in the center section just to the left side, just use a seat cushion :)

I sat right in the center of the front row. I personally did not feel I was looking up anyone's noses. It is still a bit of a distance from the front row to the stage. However, when Samantha was laying on the floor watching tv in the hotel room, she was quite close. I was not looking up her nose, but at a good sight of her cleavage. Although impressive, I would have preferred Andy's.

I rushed last Friday, there wasn't a single person in line until about 8:30. I got in line about 9:20 and was 7th. My seats were the second and third to last in the front row of the center section.

I rushed 3 weeks ago, got there at 5:00pm, and was able to snag a front row aisle seat.

Thanks for the update everyone! MadsonMelo, I'd get one just in case. If you don't feel like you need it, you don't have to use it, but I'd get one (and I'm 6'2''!). Report back either way!

I think there is misconception that the stage is incredibly high. I rushed and sat in row A a few weeks ago and a cushion isn't necessary at all unless you have burning desire to see people's toes at the back of the stage. I'm not tall whatsoever (5'4") - I got the cushion because of all of the warnings and found it pretty unnecessary.
If you're 5'9" or 6'2" it's definitely NOT needed and you're just going to cause an ripple effect for the people sitting behind you.

This is super helpful, thank you!

I'm 5'4 also and I literally can't see anything happening that isn't all the way downstage without a cushion. And all of my friends are the same. So it really depends on the person I guess.

I won the lottery for the matinee today. I realize this is the rush thread but I couldn’t find a lotto one so just adding here. Received orchestra left row P, seat 21. It did seem like they just had a stack of tickets and as winners showed they were crossing names off and handing out the next ticket(s), so if that’s the case I’ll add that I got there at about 1:50.

A random non-holiday Wednesday, for the matinee, right at box-office opening was fine.
