I was walking past the Atkinson at 9:00AM today, and there were already 40-50 people on line for rush.

Anyone rush recently? Im trying to rush on Sunday 1/20 - holiday weekend so a two-show day. Any advice on how early to arrive?

I realize now that I put this in the other Waitress thread, but THM3 gets you tickets for$49 (mezz row K-M), $69 (mid-mezz)and$89 (side orchestra and front mezz)"

Is this supposed to work for all dates? Because I've tried it on a few, and it hasn't worked.

Edited to say that I just went back in to check and you're right, the code does not seem to be working now. I just used it earlier today to get a ticket so maybe it expired, or their site is glitchy?

Hmm it looks like they may have disabled it for the Creel/Bareilles performances Or maybe their run wasn’t supposed to be a part of the discount to begin with and I used it before they took it down. I got it via email and used it at the box office, but you’re right: it doesn’t even work online now.

Has anyone rushed for Sara/Gavin this week? What time did you get there? Going tomorrow and know its a 12 BO, but hoping to get some insight.

I rushed on Friday. It was 20 degrees the entire morning, and by the time the box office opened there were maybe 20-25 people. I arrived at 7am and got orch row C18-20. 

It was worth it, but the bitter cold was so unbearable at times so that's probably why the line wasn't too long.

Were both your seats considered Full-View or Partial-View?

I rushed Saturday, the 12th. 

It was freezing. Like, borderline couldn't take it, and I'm from far up north. 

I arrived at about 7:30am for the night show, and was 14th in line. I am not sure how many wanted matinee tickets, though. 

The next person joined 10 minutes after, and by 8:15 the line was down to the irish pub. By 9, it was down to the end of the street. It was LONG. At least 40 people. 

I doubt they got tickets, but I did and so did the people behind me. I got A9 & A11 for $48 each, which were techincally partial view but all that I missed was anything in the  kitchen (mostly cal cooking). 

It was worth every moment, and Sara and Gavin were amazing.

I just rushed today 1/15

Reading some of these posts made me panic at the thought of less tickets being available during Sara and Gavins run. I ended up getting there a few minutes before 7am, I was the third person in line.

The line was up to about 10 people by 8:40
At least 20 people by 10am

I got D1, D3

EDIT: By the way, rush tickets are now $48. I don’t see anywhere else reporting this info except someone else on this thread

Does anyone know if they still sell Standing Room Tickets?

Any tips on when to get there on Sunday IF I decide to brave the weather?

In the Waitress rush line right now; there were 31 people here already when I arrived at 8:40am, and there are already probably 10 more people behind me now (9:07am).

The fact that you're going on a day when the city is going to be hit by a snowstorm will sort of make it hard for anyone to provide tips, since it will automatically turn many people away from doing rush... but there are enough people who live in the area who will see that as a potential opportunity, so....

I know it’s different every day, but FWIW: Was able to get a single seat for the matinee today in the right box, row C, having arrived in line at 8:40am. When I was getting my ticket, there was just one seat left for the evening show, and some singles left for the matinee; so there were a decent amount of tickets available, as some of the 31 people in front of me were definitely buying multiple tickets.

I was there as well Sat 1/19 at 7:15 and was 11th in line. I would estimate at least 50 people behind me by the time the box office opened. I got B16 for the evening, stamped partial view but missed very little. Sara and Gavin were terrific! Thanks to all who have posted, the updates have been very helpful

I rushed on Saturday, 1/19 for Waitress tickets. Got on line around 7:30am and waited 2.5 hours until the box office opened at 10am. I was number 14 in line and was able to get 2 rush tickets located in row E seats 22 & 24. Partial view in the Right Orchestra but didn't miss much other than a few of the diner tables in the back of the stage and the piano on stage where they place the pies and all. Sara and Gavin were a delight! Even had a laughable moment during the Bad Idea (reprise) in Act 2 where Gavin came in a bit late/early and missed a line of lyrics that just made everything that much more enjoyable. Then, Sara come out with the Pineapple Upside-down Pie and laughs on stage trying to keep a straight face. The two of them are just a joy. Go see them while you can!

I rushed today, 1/26. I got in line at 7:10 and there was 8 people in front of me, so number 9. By 8 there was 15 more behind me. By the time the box office opened, at least 30 people behind me so about 40+ people in line. I got 1 Matinee ticket, Orch Row H seat 23. Says partial view but from what I’ve heard and read you don’t miss much. Worth getting their early but super frozen. Definitely busier earlier because of Sara, heard most people talking about coming to see her at least at the front of the line.

How much was the partial seat? Im thinking of waking up early to rush as my boyfriend only wants to see the show again if its with Sara.

It was $48. All rush tickets are $48.

(1/26/19) I got to the box office today at about 9 AM to try for rush. The line was already down the block so I passed on waiting in line figuring that everything would be gone by the time I got to the front of the line. I went back at about 11:30 to see what other tickets they may have available. I was able to get the last Standing Room ticket for the matinee for $38!! I was/am shocked. I have no problems with standing, just hoping its a good view.

Where was standing room and how was it?

The standing room spots were at the back of the orchestra, stage left. I believe there were only about 10 standing room spots total. The view was perfect! Didnt miss a thing, which I believe is an issue with some of the rush seats. I would highly recommend the standing room tickets if standing for 2.5 hours is something youre okay with.

Sara is a must see! Absolutely brings the house down when she sings She Used to Be Mine. During the matinee today, there was an extended applause for about 2 minutes after that scene. She broke for a small second and slightly bowed and then went right back into things. A class act but so so talented!!

Rushed Friday 1/25. Got there at 7 and was fourth in line. We had Right Orchestra, row C on the outside aisle (I think the numbers were 18-20). It was technically partial view, but we barely missed anything other than a few entrances and exits. Definitely worth it. Sara and Gavin were incredible. I would say that it's not even worth bothering with rushing while Sara and Gavin are here if you can't get there at least two hours early, and it may be even more difficult in their final week.
