Thanks I've seen Hairspray too much. I would see Spelling Bee again what time is their lottery?? Also would "Jacques Brel is Alive.." sell me student tickets right before the show if I had no luck with anything else?

For Spelling Bee you put names in 2 hours before the curtain. Names are drawn 1.5 hours before. It should be easier because there is no Wicked show on Sunday nights.

Here's a good site with all rush policies and show times:

Instead of starting a new thread, I'll ask my question here:

How many student rush tickets have there been for Tarzan? I'd like to see it with my mom next Sunday, but I don't want to go into the city and end up not getting a ticket.

on't know how many there are but I do know you have to wait on line for AT LEAST 4 hours.

Was that a joke!? I hope so! I guess we'll see something else. How's Pajama Game with student rush?

no, I'm being dead serious. Pajama Game does not have student rush. They sell their cancellation tix at half price to anyone under 18 and the easiest way to get them is get there an hour before the box office opens and they always have some seats, then just show them ID proving you are under 18.

How easy is the lotto for Spelling Bee?

Can someone who has purchased a rush, student, or cancelation ticket for The Pajama game give me the rundown on how it works for this show? I've been hearing conflicting stories, leading me to believe that the show's success is preventing Roundabout from following their normal student/rush policy, as listed on the Talkin' Broadway rush page. (I've searched other threads for info on this without much luck.)

Is it true that you have to be under 18 to get a student ticket? I'm a grad student and am over 18. I'm probably willing to do cancelation and pay full price, if that's an option, but I'd definitely prefer a rush or student ticket. What are my options? Thanks!

i went on a saturday night to the PJ Game and there were cancellation tickets available for full price only...i had tickets but I chatted with a girl who sat in front of my mom and I. I believe she said they release cancellations beginning at 10am for matinees and 3pm for evening perfs. She missed out on tix from the first batch of cancellations at 3 as she was farther back in the line....and waited in line til 7:40 and picked up a single seat for the 8pm show. I overheard the box office person tell the cancellation line people that no student price tix (aka half price) would be sold unless they exhausted the possibility of selling them to people who would pay full price. You will have to wait in line for a few hours at least to have a shot...as they get released in dribs and drabs from what the person I chatted with said...

From what I remember reading the box office won't sell cancellation tickets for Pajama Game at the student price until 30 mins before curtain.
