Sister Act rush and Patina attendance question

Sunday August 7th, I'd like to try and score a pair of rush tickets for the Sister Act matinee. What time do you suggest I arrive at the box office? What's been your recent experience with this show? Also, does Pitina have a pretty solid attendance record? Part of wanting to see this show is because of her. I can't really tell who her standby/understudy is....can anyone help me with this info? Thanks!

Her original understudy, Corbin Reid, is now in the off-Broadway cast of RENT playing Joanne. I would assume that if you go to the show's website, you will see who the new understudy is.

Rashidra Scott (one of the understudies for Delores) performed at Bryant Park and I'm sure it's on Youtube. Quite different from Patina. And as far as I know, Patina has had solid attendance record.

There are only 14 seats so I recommend getting to the box office at least 3 hours prior if you really want to guarantee yourself a seat.

I went on 7/10 to the Saturday Matinee and was second in line at about 8am. There were 7 tickets of the evening show bought before me. The show was amazing! It was so funny and just a great feel good musical. The seats were great and although when they went way to the back (only for like 2 mins the whole show) I could only see their chest up, the seats were wonderful and I hope to see it again! Good luck and the whole cast is amazing!

Patina has a more than solid attendance record--she hasn't missed a performance yet.
