I was wondering where I can find information about this? I checked the Speed-the-Plow on Broadway website and it doesn't give me much info. I want to see this on Friday but there's no mention of whether there is any student rush or the running time. I don't want to go into the city to be disappointed that there's no student rush, and I've seen everything I want to see on Broadway so I don't have a backup plan. Anywhere I can find this info?
Thanks.

Thank you so much for responding.
Now does anyone know running time for past speed-the-plow productions or for this one? I just want to know what train i'll need to take home.
I appreciate the info.

Posted: 9/30/08 at 8:29amALSO, I'd like to know whether they accept Credit Card for Student Rush. Most are cash only but it doesn't specify whether it does or not. All My Sons accepted credit cards, which is why I ask, hopefully it's a new trend.

Posted: 9/30/08 at 11:26amBased on the length of the script and the structure I would say somewhere around 1:35-1:45.

Posted: 11/10/08 at 8:55pmHow has student rush been latel? I am thinking of doing it for a Saturday matinee and would like to know what time I should get in line. Thanks

Posted: 11/10/08 at 9:38pmI rushed the show two Saturdays ago (11/1) for the matinee and NO ONE was there except me and one other person. The tickets go on sale 2 hours before curtain (noon). I got there at about 11:45, asked the B.O. guy if student tickets would be available just to make sure, and he said yes and told me to form a line. So I just hung around for a few minutes and bought my tickets at noon. I hope you get them, it's a fantastic show!

boonanas, it's cash only.
I went on a Friday evening (Halloween, actually), and was surprised to find a good ten people already on line when I arrived at 5:40 or so. Tickets went on sale at 6. I got third row mezz on the side.

Posted: 11/10/08 at 9:55pmAccording to telecharge the run time of the show is 90 min.

Yeah. it actually ran less than 90min. when I saw it.
My seats were front row center, btw. I wonder if they just give out whatever seats are left. It seems kind of random.

Posted: 11/10/08 at 10:35pmYeah, the locations vary. It's not set. 90 minutes is a little generous. I'd say it's about an hour fifteen.
