We rushed this show on Sunday, 1/26/25. First person in line arrived at 8:10. At 9:20 when we joined, we were the ninth in line. At 10:30 - 16, 11:00 - 22, 11:30 - 25, 11:55 - 33. They opened the doors to the box office at 11:55. When we got to the ticket window, I told the attendant that I would like to buy two tickets and my wife (who was standing behind me) also needed two tickets. The attendant stated that he could combine our tickets into one order so we could all sit together. I was so excited for this! The tickets we received were Center Orchestra, Row A, Seats 111 - 114 (front row).  I couldn't believe our luck!!  The way Row A works, going from left to right from the aisle, you have four seats, then the conductors standing area, and then another four seats to the aisle on the right. Incredible seats!! It was like having our own little seating section in the theater! And for only $40 per ticket, this was an absolute steal! Other than not seeing the actors feet, the views were perfect!  I believe everyone on line did get tickets, though I cannot vouch as to where they were located.  We really enjoyed the show and it was a lot of fun.

Love hearing stories like this, thank you for sharing! Even when shows are transparent and consistent with their rush policies, it can still be such a stress. Glad it worked out for you and your fam so nicely!

A couple weeks ago, I went at 7am and couldn't get 2 seats together when they opened at 10am.  Maybe it's because the leads have left or it's it's too cold outside.
