Can anyone tell me how it is? How early does one have to arrive on a weekend?
I went yesterday at 10:45 and they were all out. Since it's closing so early, I would recommend getting there before the box office opens just to give yourself a better chance.
I went the Friday after Thanksgiving, got there at 9 and I was the only person there. At the show people directly next to me said they got there at 10:30
I got it an hour before the show once, on a Saturday afternoon, and was in Row A of the balcony.
Their discount code offers $28 balcony seats, which is essentially the same price as rush and you can choose your own seats and not have to worry about lining up. I linked the code below, but they also have people all over Times Square handing out this code.
And the view from the balcony isn't bad at all. Definitely worth it, and worth seeing this wonderful show before it closes.

Thanks guys! I got there at 10:40 and there were a bunch of people in line already. By 11 it was down the block! I got bal row A but brought the discount code just incase - thanks "adam"
I tried last night an hour and a half before the show, was told they were "long gone" and have been selling out at BO open lately. I asked for any $39.50 seats and she said they had plenty of $131 seats left but nothing cheaper.
Just a PSA to all trying to see it--guess I won't be seeing it.
I am happy that they are going to go out on a high note but I was kind of hoping to see it again tonight. Guess not.

I don't remember if the theatre has space to accommodate it or not but I can always ask.

I really thuoght I replied to this, but it was probably in another thread, so I apologize for double posting.
I went on Sunday (when it opens at noon), and there were maybe 5 people when I got there (around 10:30). A lot of people came around 11-11:30, and by noon, the line was snaked around- I'd say there were at least 40 people. Not sure if everyone got a ticket. From what I heard, the first people got there at around 9.

Is rush whatever's left or is it just a set section in the balcony?
