I called the box office earlier and was informed that even for sold out shows there will be rush tickets. Has that been the case recently? I'm about to rush for Head Of Passes or Dry Powder in a few mins, so any input will be much appreciated!

It is true (from my experience this season). It is a major improvement from seasons past when Rush tickets wouldent be available for hit shows. If I'm not mistaken, this is a student rush not a general one

Are you allowed one or two tickets per person?

There were quite a few rush tickets available for Dry Powder yesterday. No rush tickets for Head Of Passes though. I think you can get two tickets per person. I suppose my conclusion would be that there could be rush tickets for sold-out shows, but that's not always a guarantee...

Damn, I wish I had known about this before so I could have tried harder to see Dry Powder. I was dying to see that cast, but won't have time to make it down there before it closes. However I'm happy to hear that they are now setting aside tickets for rush. I'll keep that in mind for future shows. Thanks for reporting back!

What's a good time to get there if I want to rush Dry Powder? Will definitely try it!

For that specific Sunday matinee, I was there a little before 11:30 and the box office opened at 12:30 (an hour before the first matinee, which was 1:30 for Head of Passes for that day). I think the second person arrived around 11:45. There just happened to be quite a few rush tickets for Dry Powder on that day. Not sure if that'd be the case for all the remaining performances. That said, Head Of Passes didn't have any rush tickets available.
