Hi everyone,

I'm headed to NYC Feb 4-8 and would like to know if anyone can tell me the rush/lotto locations for the following shows (I know that they're at the discretion of the box office, but what have you gotten recently?)

- The Outsiders

- Hell's Kitchen

- Sunset Boulevard

- All In

- Oh Mary

- Death Becomes Her

- Maybe Happy Ending

I'm really bad with heights so just trying to figure out which ones I should risk and which ones I may need to splurge on. Thank you all in advance!! :)

For DBH, we got Right Orchestra Row U, 14-16 on a Tuesday evening in January. For $35 I thought they were terrific seats. FWIW, box office told me they usually do mezzanine for Rush, I asked about orchestra and he gave me the Row U seats. No complaints, and really enjoyed the show.

This is from December so it may no longer be true but as of then I think all MHE rush has been balcony.  All In doesnt' do a rush but I won the digital lotto and the ticket was row A balcony (way on the side, technically partial view though I didn't miss anything of importance).  I think Outsiders seats can be all over the place but if you're okay with standing it seems like that might be pretty reasonable to get without showing up as early (and it'll be behind the last row of orchestra)

I got a box seat for Oh Mary in July. Not sure where they’ve been recently.

I did and got Mezz 4 row C centre (the "other side" of the theatre). In the end I cancelled the ticket because Adam called out and I got a late rush for Death Becomes Her - Row B of the RMezz which was a great view.

How did you get your late rush for DBH? And how late did you get it?

Hey :)

Does anyone know if Death becomes her, The Outsiders and Maybe Happy Ending offer secondary Rush (around 60-80$) ? I know that Sweened Todd did when I was there last Year in April. 

 

Oh and also... can I use a telecharge gift card on rushtickets?

MHE offers far side orch for rush, and it's more obstructed than in the average show.

I believe there is a lottery loser code if you enter the Telecharge lottery, and there are some advance sale codes floating around that have good deals (HAPPYMAIL being one).

no secondary rush for MHE - I asked the box office a couple weeks ago.

Outsiders SRO is much better than rush

Cool! How early did you get there and was it a long line?

I arrived originally at 9:30 am but nobody was there and it was freezing. so I camped out at the Starbucks across the theater until 10:15 am. By then, 6 people had arrived. despite previous reports, the lobby for the theater did not open early and by noon there were over 30 people in line.

Wow, good to know! I’m torn on the show. I don’t feel I’ll like it, but have heard such good things!

i enjoyed it but I went in with high expectations and wanted to be blown away and I wasn't. despite it being advertised as an 80-minute show, it was closer to 70 minutes. I wouldn't have paid over $100 for this.

Good to know. Thanks so much for your advice!
