Rushing Les Miserables on 11/27 2PM show

I hate these threads and I hate doing them. But, last time I went into the city during christmas time seeing if I could get a cheap ticket to anything I ended up having to turn around and go back home.


That being said, what do you think my chances are of going to the Broadhurst box office and getting a student rush ticket for Les Miserables for the matinee on thursday?

I do know that i have had no problem doing this at other times in the shows run but now that it is christmas week I don't know.

You think I should get up and be there when the box offices opens up? Or should I just use Broadwabox and get a ticket that way.

Personally, I don't like to go to the city to see a show without already having a ticket. Especially at this time of year. I'm not in the city and it takes more than an hour to get there (as well as the $20 round trip train fare plus $5 parking at the train station). Getting there and having to turn around and go home would be costly for me so I tend not to chance it.

I do live just outside the city. But, train tickets are free for me. God bless student train passes that just say good for the 07/08 school year.

But, I want to know if it is going to be worth it.

I am guessing not. The only reason why I want to see Les Miserables thursday afternoon is cus Haviland Stillwell is Fantine.

Should I try or not?

Zilch. They're not offering student rush for the remainder of the run. One of the box office people told me yesterday when I tried to get a rush ticket.

There's always SRO...

Sorry, Broadwaybox code expired December 20th, which is at least a week before November 27th.

Telecharge has full price tickets [and a few half-price partial view seats] for December 27 matinee.


p.s. If you spend the money, and you're very lucky, you might also catch Marissa as Cosette.

IS THERE any other performances that JUDY KUHN won't be Fantine?! I was going to get tickets to this show but now I won't..I've seen the show 3 times and only going back to see Miss Kuhn & the other new cast members...

Haviland Stilwell had said on her website that the thursday afternoon performance was the last time she will be going on as Fantine.


So, I do think that Judy will be on the rest of the run.

Haviland Stillwell will be playing the role of Fantine in LES MISERABLES for the matinee of Thursday, December 27th; Rona Figueroa will be playing the role of Fantine for the evening.


Les Miz does a Thursday matinee?

Les Miserables does have a performance this coming Tuesday (Christmas Day). The added matinee on Thursday 12/27 is actually covering for New Year's Day when the theatre will be dark.

You have it backwards. There is no show on 12/25, but there is a show on 1/1. Check telecharge.

I wish I was in New York! I would love to see Rona as Fantine. If anyone here goes to the Thursday evening show, please give a review of Rona.
