Okay, I know this question has been asked 1,000,000 times. But I wanted to know the CURRENT status. How is the Legally Blonde rush line? Do you still need to get there at 8AM, assuming the Box Office opens at 10AM? My friend and I want to rush for tomorrow's 2PM show. Thank you in advance (and I'm sorry if this repetitious thread annoys people) !
p.s. How is the line for "Purple"? Any better?
Bill Finn rocks. Woot.

Posted: 8/3/07 at 2:26pmI'm not sure about The Color Purple. I like getting to Legally Blonde super early, just so I'm completely certain that I am getting a ticket. I've gotten there as early as 6:00 and been about 6th in line and I've gone closer to 7am and been about 10th in line. You probably could arrive closer to 8 and get one of the last tickets but if you don't want to risk it, I'd say closer to 7. Except that you are going on a two day show which sometimes is helpful and sometimes getting there later can backfire. I'd say 8 at the latest for anyday though.

Posted: 8/3/07 at 4:23pmI rushed the show on Wednesday, and I got there at 7:00am, and there were already quite a few people in line ahead of me. I'd say the latest you would want to get there would be 7:30, especially for a Saturday.

Posted: 8/3/07 at 8:50pmYou can get two per id. My sister rushed for us last saturday. She got there around 7 am and was 7th or 8th in line. However, most of the people in front of her wanted the evening show. I would imagine, then, it is easier on 2 show days.

Do you need anything special to rush, or just a valid photo ID?

Reporting back.
I got there at 7AM and was #10 in line. My tickets were awesome (2nd row, center) and it was worth getting up early for! I enjoyed the show a lot, even more so than HAIRSPRAY and WEDDING SINGER. My only small quip is that Kate Shindle looks too mature to play a college student and her/Blake's chemistry was non-existant. Other than that, it's a pretty amazing show.
p.s. why is there so much publicity on Heather Hach for writing the book? There was barely ANY book!
