Question about Passing Strange rush tickets for last week

In general, how in demand have tickets been? Are people lined up long before the box office opens?

A friend of mine is wondering if getting there by 1pm tomorrow is too late.

Any tips?

Probably not too late.

I'm rushing tomorrow as well.

I was advised in the PASSING STRANGE Love Thread that I have a shot at better seats if I get there closer to show time.

I was planning on getting to the box office at around 6pm tomorrow.

No matter what time you get there, they're going to sell you tickets. They're filling the house to 37% capacity.

What it comes down to is where you'll be sitting.

Thanks! Just one last question... do rush tickets go on sale when box office opens or 2 hours before showtime? 6pm seems to be cutting it close but I'll trust the posts in the "love thread" if that's what they recommend.

They go on sale when the box office opens.

At one point, they would only sell a certain amount of rush tickets..but I think you guys will be fine.

When I saw the show 7/4, I got there less than half an hour to curtain, and got a great seat. O-1, which is aisle left orchestra. I shared my row on the left orchestra with two other people.

I've sat first row left orchestra, and it wasn't a very good spot, so definitely go a little later.

Update for those wondering - my friend's husband got there around 1 today and they got decent seats in the 9th row.

Thanks for the advise! :)
