Rush/Lottery Info for next week

Posted: 12/27/05 at 3:45pm

I'm taking a trip to the city next week, and I'm trying to make plans for what shows I'm going to see.

I've decided I am going to see Sweeney and Piazza, but am still undecided on the third: DRS, Jersey Boys or Color Purple.

I've done a bit of research, but still have a few questions (broken down by show lol).
-Sweeney: I plan on going to TKTS for tickets, is one performance more likely to be on there than others?
-Piazza: I'm probably rushing this one - what time would you advise getting to the theater for the rush tix?
-DRS: Is the DRS lottery hard to win? Also, where are the seats located?
-Jersey Boys: Where are the rush seats located? Also, what time should I get to the theater?
-Color Purple: Best time to get to the theater?

Also, I don't know what show I'm seeing when (Tuesday evening, Wednesday matinee and evening), so any suggestions there would be great! Thanks!

DRS lotto should be very easy for those performances. Go for it!

-Sweeney: Since Sweeney opened it's only been at TKTS on Wednesday matinees
-Piazza: You need to be a member or a Lincoln center thing to get rush tix for this show, and only a certain amount of people can be on it and its full, but its usually at TKTS
-DRS: I've heard people say on this board that everyone there had won, but I've seen close to 50 people there one night
Jersey Boys: You need to have a student ID as well as another government form of ID There in the orchestra closer to the back, but not the last row.Tickets for 8pm performances will be sold between 4:30pm & 5:30pm; for 2pm performances between 11am and noon
Color Purple: During the week there won't even be a line they sell matinees at 10 and evenings at 12.ON weekends get there an hour early.
(I hope you mean next week as in after New Years)

Yes, the dates I'm going are Jan 3-5.

As for the Piazza rush, I thought I read that there were rush tickets available (outside of the StudenTix program)... am I imagining things?

Thanks for the other info, tho!

DRS: I would suggest Wed matinee for DRS if you can swing that. I've rushed twice on a Wed afternoon and both times everyone won, in fact the second time the lotto guy didn't even go through the drawing names motions- I walked up to enter the lotto at 11:55am (names get drawn at noon), and he told me to just walk up to the box office as a 'winner.' You sit in the box seats, so you miss a bit of the back/side of the stage, but it is so worth it for the lotto price- this show is in my top 5 right now.

Piazza rush: There are student rush tickets available 2 hours before the show for $35, the box office staff told me they are usually available on weekdays but not on weekends so you're in luck if you're going to be in town Jan 3-5. I sat in the orchestra when I went last time on a Wed night. Good luck!
