War Paint Rush — Page 2

Anyone rushed the show recently?

Wanting to rush on a two show day, and wondering the latest we could get there to be ensured tickets. (I live an hour or so away from the city)

Thanks for the report, prosec. Hope you enjoyed the show!

Anybody else rush War Paint recently? Going to try for tomorrow or Saturday and have no idea what to expect, since I haven't tried since March.

Just close this pig of a show, it was a joke to begin with

I rushed on Thursday. Got there at 6:45ish. Very nice guy, said there were no rush left....then told us to wait a minute...he made a phone call and then sold us two box seats for the rush price. I think they may release the boxes an hour before curtain, hence the phone call for the early release.

Great seats. Only part of the stage was not visible - but none of the action (or lack thereof) took place on extreme sides.

Bad news is, the show is disposable. Nothing to write home about. Patti Lupone works it, though. She is everything!

What factors make it so that you can only arrive as late as 10:30AM?

The funny thing about the arrival times after driving is they can be made earlier by simply getting less sleep ... what a concept.

What business is it of yours? And do NOT mistake "can't" with "doesn't want to".

Get on the line as early as possible people ... stop with the whinning about sleep, it's past sad.

Apparently, Hamilton is.

You said: "The funny thing about the arrival times after driving is they can be made earlier by simply getting less sleep ... what a concept."

"Get on the line as early as possible people ... stop with the whinning about sleep, it's past sad."

That's not advocating that people get 8 hours of sleep and certainly comes off as suggesting that sleep isn't important.

My comment was more of a general one, which is why I didn't quote you directly. I've had friends and co-workers killed and/or injured due to driving while sleep deprived, so it's a personal issue. People should avoid drowsy driving whether it's for theater tickets or not.

ETA - I'm usually in agreement with you when people ask when to show up, that the answer is if they really care, they'll show up as early as possible. The difference is when driving is added to the mix.

Rushed Friday 8/11 at 8am. First in line. Next person got there at 9:30am. There were about six people in line by 10am. Seemed like there were still tickets available when I went to see the show. The box seats were empty. Also, Patti does stage door and apparently Christine does not.

I just won the lottery for War Paint and can no longer make the show tonight - does anyone want the link?
