Rate the Rushes! — Page 2

Does anyone think Grey Gardens' rush will be harder after the Tonys?

I was still in shock for a while afterwards. The woman in charge of the line checked the scalpers IDs and there weren't any conflicts so no one knew why all four of them suddenly up and left a few minutes before the box office opened. Very weird.

Loved the show btw! It was so much fun and I'm very glad I finally got to see it!

i think everything will be a tad harder after the tonys.

Wow Cape, that really is amazing. You're very lucky! Does anyone think that rush for Jersey Boys will die down a little bit, especially in the first few weeks following the Tonys (specifically in terms of the scalpers)? Just a thought, since they may be heading to the new Best Musical winner. I'm planning on rushing the Sunday after the Tonys, and it would make things so much easier if the scalpers were gone.

well rachel's point was that a new best musical would be titled and so the last (jersey boys) may have the potential of dying down. which is a possibility.

but spring awakening is nominated in THIS year's category. so no it will probably just pick up even more fans.

They said that the Curran rush tix were severely limited view 2nd & 3rd row corner orchestra seats and that the 2nd row offers a nice view of the Jersey Boy's kneecaps and nothing else interesting to see.

"They" were wrong!

The rush seats for Jersey Boys at the Curran are the front row, starting at the left of the center block, working to the right. Sometimes they do sell the far corner right seats, which are right under the speakers and afford an excellent view of the spiral staircase, and the box seats, which I haven't been in for this show.

Is the sightline obstructed? Yes. You can't see many things which occur at the back of the stage. However, nothing of drastic importance (unless you consider the monkey dance, Crewe in the soundbooth, bowling or the end of "Dawn" critical to your enjoyment) is missed. It's $25, and you're practically in the show. I feel that the energy you get from sitting that close to the actors more than makes up for not being able to see Crewe's yellow couch, or whatever. People who just have to see everything may not agree.

You might want to get there at 10:30 or earlier, not noon.

Anyone know how LoveMusik rush has been latley? Last time I went I had no problems but I'm just wondering if it has since changed.

i rushed jersey boys the day of the BC/EFA flea market.. i was volunteering and decided to try my luck with jersey boys with 2 friends afterwards [at like 10:30am for a 3pm mat.].. we were the 9th, 10th, and 11th people in line.. [which means one was out] but we stuck it out and low and behold a guy in line opted for premium seats.. we gave him a huge hug to say the least, haha. we all got to see it, with the original cast, and it was incredible. =)

Aniandrewx... I think it's getting more difficult. I know on Friday, they were out at 5:45. And Saturday, they had one evening ticket left at 12 noon. I don't know about matinee or weekdays, but I'd try to be there as close to box office opening as possible.

---

I think they do their rushes at the same time...when the box office opens. And from what I've seen, I'd plan on being there 6:30/7 at the latest. And even then I'm not sure that's early enough. It's looked to be crowded. (And some set up in lawn chairs with blankets.)
