How has the Ragtime lotto been? I'm going to try tomorrow for the Mat if I lose WSS (Which I probably will since they give out so few tix)
Does Ragtime do post lotto discounts? Do they do SRO or not till after it opens. It opens soon tho right?

I lost the lottery at Ragtime this past Sunday afternoon. There wasn't a huge turnout, I'd say well over 50% of those there got tickets. There was no announcement made about any other discounts, though I didn't hang around long.

There's no standing room. No discounts.

I feel like the matinee won't be too hard - it seems like a generally older/ non tourist crowd who would probably be at work,

"There's no standing room. No discounts."

Shows rarely sell standing room during previews. The creative team and other people involved with the production are usually in those spots, and with Ragtime making constant changes, I doubt they'll be available before opening night.

That said, the Neil Simon has standing room, and they will sell it.

Tomorrow is a holiday so there might be more people than usual.

Bumping to ask--what it the current running time of the show? Seeing tomorrow's matinee.


"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

To people who have seen the show, would standing room be horrible for this show considering the height of the set?

AC126748 I was out around 10:40 on the first preview.

And RippedMan, you will miss some but the main action happens on stage where you can see.

It's running about 2 hours and 45 minutes as of the first preview.
