It looks like they're "tiering" the rush ticket prices: $99 for orchestra, $55 for mezzanine and $42 for balcony. Most people were opting for the $42. Curious to know whether or not this is now the permanent policy. "

Here's my report from yesterday (Saturday): When I arrived at 1020am (I arrived late since I just missed out on rush for another show) there were still rush seats for both the matinee and evening performances. Balcony seats were priced at $42 and orchestra seats at $99 (orchestra rush was only available for the mantinee). I got a balcony seat for the matinee in the Balcony Left, Row D, 10 seats in (Seat 19). A person in front of me who went to the evening show got Balcony Left, Row E, 5 seats in (Seat 9). There were quite a number of open seats in the balcony so I moved up to the second row after intermission.

Hope this helps!

Arrived around 8:40 yesterday and were looking for 3 tickets for the matinee. We were the 18th people in line. We were given Balc Right Row D with my seat being on the far aisle. Seems like getting there early is not necessary on this one.

I got to the theatre at 7:20pm and was sold 3 rush tickets for the 8pm show. The tickets were on the very last row of the theatre and the row was empty besides us.

Any recent reports for this? I would really like to be in the mezz or orchestra for this show/venue, and am curious how rush (or other day-of discounts) seats have been. Thank you!

I rushed on 2/17 and got there at 6:30 for the 8pm show. They ran out of rush but I got a $42 seat in A26 of the balcony (was marked partial view, only missed some of the top of the stairs)

I rushed this for the matinee yesterday. I got to the theater right at 10 a.m., the line took about 10 minutes and I got a canceled ticket - center orchestra Row J - for $99. Couldn't have asked for a better seat - particularly at that price.

I checked out the other two levels at intermission - I would have been happy with the mezz, but felt the extra price was worth it to see Glenn Close's facial expressions. As others have pointed out, balcony is VERY high and gave me vertigo.

It was also on TKTS yesterday and hadn't sold out by the time I walked into the theater around 1:30 p.m.

Just went to the box office at 5:20pm and got 2 rush tickets for tonight in the balcony

Bumping this to see if anyone has rushed recently. I might be mistaken, but it sounds like the rush tickets are all over the place. Is this correct? Just trying to gauge what time I need to get to the theater to get the best available. Thanks for any information!

I rushed on Saturday for the night show, got there at about 11:30 and got last row mezzanine. It was high and far from the stage, and honestly at $55 a pop it was pretty pricey for rush tickets. But it was the best we could do last minute, and the show was pretty good so i am happy with my decision.

I actually did notice both of those, but I wasn't sure if they were flubs or not (Glenn is such a talent that she made of them work). I figured the wrong note was, but I thought she pulled off the gun flub beautifully. Honestly the character is so flustered in that moment, and Glenn commited to it and stayed completely in character, so for me it totally worked! But I am definitely considering going back and this time being closer. I want to really be able to see Glenn's face because her performance was incredible from the back of the house and I can only imagine how incredible it is from up close!

Only if they sell...

"If you go on Wednesdays or Thursdays, it's usually on TKTS for half off...you can get great deals.

I think they were last time I asked. But last Saturday and Sunday, they were sold out...so I think it's more likely to get those on Wed-Thurs.
