Has anyone been? I am thinking about rushing in mid May on a weekday night.

You will most likely be able to walk right up to the box office at any time and grab a ticket. Easiest rush.

You'll be fine, as long as it's not a "tourist vacation week." The show DOES sell out on weeks likes that.

But apparently someone on here was told by the BO that there is no rush? I am sure there is though.

I was told there was no rush. I have no idea why.

I'm a professional. Whenever something goes wrong on stage, I know how to handle it so no one ever remembers. I flash my %#$&. "Jayne just sat there while Gina flailed around the stage like an idiot."

I went two times...once in December and once in early February.

We're you trying for a Saturday evening either time? Rush is not available for that performance.

I'm pretty sure they only sell it when they open or shortly after. They then send those seats to TKTS if they aren't sold for rush price early in the morning.

Say hi to Tom Wopat, who will be by the souvenir stand at intermission selling his CD.
