Student Rush

Hey-
Well, I'm totally excited to see JOY in October, but in the meantime, I've never done student rush before and I'm aware that Chitty and Sweet Charity have it. I've read the "guidlines" and want to know...do I have to purchase two tickets, can it just be one? and where are the seats for each? I've seen Charity already, and would like to maybe see it again (cheaper) but I haven't seen Chitty yet, and I'm interested in seeing the show, mainly for Raul Esparza and Cast.
Thanks,
SweetOscar

you don't have to purchase two tickets, that is just how many you are allowed to buy per student ID.
i haven't done the rush for either of those shows so i don't know where the seats are! sorry! hope i helped somewhat!

Chitty's rush seats, at least a good percentage of the time, are excellent. I sat center orchestra about 12 rows back, which was perfect (except for the people around me, who belonged in some kind of silent lock down facility.)
Charity rush, I got the extreme left side of the orchestra, they were not bad though, you missed bery little (the "eleveator scenes" were about half visible) and they were generally quite good for veiwing the stage pictures.

Sorry... but can someone mention here all of the Broadway shows with student rush, currently?

Thanks,

Neither show has designated rush seats. For Chitty, it's whatever is available for that performance, and they generally give you the best available seats. Charity, I think, limits how many they issue, and tend to be seats off to the side.
