It's pretty easy. They begin selling tickets two hours before the performance, but you want to get there a bit earlier than that. From what I've been hearing and from what I could tell last time I bought rush tickets, you should plan to get there between forty-five minutes to an hour before they begin selling tickets. I got there at 5 for an 8:00 show, and my friend and I were the first two online, but about ten minutes later, people started rolling in quickly and the line filled the box office.
So if the matinee is at 2 p.m. and rush tickets go on sale at noon, get there by 11:15.
Have fun!

Do they reserve them or sell what they have left?? Because it's vaction week, so they may not have them or if they do you'll need to be there three times earlier than usual.

This is good to know, because my family and I may be in New York after Christmas and I want to see Company as well. Though I've been told we won't have time to see a show, I am going to badger my parents into submission.

its the first two rows, and the boxes, as far as i know. so if you get there an hour before (trust me you want to get there an hour before) then you should get front row. which is fantastic. and a little intense 
just get there early cause this week always gets crazy

you may know what you need but to get what you want better see that you keep what you have

I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.

antiandrewx, it's about two and a half hours, including intermission.
I don't know if there's too strict a method behind the policy. I think arishmoof has it pretty much right, but I'm not sure how they determine whether it'll be just the front row or the first two before the boxes. The last time I rushed the show, it began with the front row (stage right, by the piano) and then they did the boxes. The second row wasn't student rush. I believe (though it may depend on the day) that after the boxes fill, they'll sell other empty seats throughout the house. It has been changing, though, in terms of which seats are set aside and all that.
