66th thanks to this woman who just “joined her son”.

Could you let us know what it’s looking like now? I have rheumatoid and really not sure I can be out there any earlier than 9 without putting my body in pain."

Wound up coming earlier and just wanted to let folks know that there are only about 100 people here so far. But keep an eye on folks ahead trying to have friends join them later."

This has turned into an annoying feature with rush lines. There's also a few "friends" that end up cutting the line about an hour or less before the box office opens."

This really is annoying. And, I really hate when people do this. Specially when it’s people who join in on the very front of the line close to the box office opening thereby potentially screwing over anyone who had gotten their early on.



I usher for Shubert (among other places, I can work anywhere that my union covers and it’s not all strictly Broadway.) But, that said, there was one day awhile back where I was only scheduled to work that night, so I did the rush line for Jagged Little Pill. Bartender co worker of mine turned out to be in front of me with a friend of hers. Towards the tail end of waiting, there were a few people who joined in the front stating that they were friends with the person(s) who got their earlier. My co worker pointed this out. Of course, I had zero authority whatsoever, yet, the people who came and jumped in front of the line didn’t know that. They even asked me if I even work for the theatre. So, I pulled my shubert name tag from my pocket and pointed out that both my name tag and the doors of the theatre have the shubert logo on them. They eventually moved to the back. It shouldn’t have come to that. They are so self centered that, friends in the front or not, they don’t care that their actions are screwing over all those who came really early to wait only to increase the chances that those who did won’t be able to get a ticket.

I was around the 50th person and just left now at 10:36 AM. What really annoys me because they have very little availability and only on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays. That was not clear in the press. Additionally, even though I was only the 50th person in line. They had no availability on my first five choices. So if you’re later in line, I hope you have a lot of available. Options

People will complain about anything, even $20 broadway tix with over a month of available dates. I got there at 10, almost left but waited until 12 when I got my tix and there were still a dozen or 2 getting the special after noon. Let's be thankful

JFC. You want great seats on your first choice of dates, maybe pay regular price, cheapskate!

My friends got there at 9 - and received a hat. They were in the first 200.

They got the first date requested but said the line did not know the Tues through Thursday, April or May rules until box office. The marketing team should have told buyers while waiting in line if not in the press.

That's awesome about your friends, kinda bummed I was wrong since I definitely thought it would be more popular in the states. I know people like swag and all that but buying tickets for decent seats was probably the main goal. I think people probably knew it wouldn't be weekends or premium seating locations but that should have been communicated so people didn't waste their time, so I 100% agree.

This reminds me of the event that The Heart of Rock & Roll had last year when all tickets during previews were $19.85 but they were alllll crappy seats in the balcony and people ended up being disappointed.

Some people waited hours in the cold to find out that they had very limited availability and there was zero communication from them about the actual dates available to us. Glad I got tix. Criticizing this failure of communication doesn’t make me ungrateful. But thanks for the condescending lecture.

Anyone happen to know which General Management firm is working on this?

Yeah, they’re the lead producers. That’s not what I asked, though.

The GM firm of Stranger Things: The First Shadow is Bespoke Theatricals.
