Will Ferrell Student Rush & Stagedoor#1

Posted: 1/29/09 at 3:00pm

Does anyone know any details on Will Ferrell student rush? Have you done it? If so, can you please post details on your experience? How early did you get there? What was the crowd like? etc.

In addition- does anyone know if Will Ferrell signs autographs at the stagedoor post performance? Does anyone have any experience with that? What times he comes out?

Thanks!

I've posted this info at least three times now, so doing a search would certainly be helpful to you, but I'll just give it to you anyway

I rushed the first preview about 45 minutes before curtain. There were three of us and we got three tickets. They were in the first and second rows of the mezzanine all the way house right. One of the seats was partial view, but really they only missed about three minutes of the show.

Ferrell does sign autographs and take pictures with fans. It took him about a half hour to come, but I'd imagine that time might have decreased because they've gotten into the swing of things now.

the reason i asked is because i saw something online that someone went to the theater recently and told them they were not currently offering student rush
does anyone know the details on that?
has anyone tried in the past few days?

Can anyone who has done the rush recently update with their experience?

What time did you get there? Approximately how may people were waiting? How many tickets were available? Where were the seats located?

Thanks!

A previous thread (which I think was the most recent rush experience) said that they are now selling the standing room spots as their sole "rush tickets."

Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

Well, I'm not finding this other thread. Can anyone answer any of the other questions?

As I mentioned, STANDING ROOM ONLY, when the box office opens. Get there at 9:30 to be sure.
