not up there. checked Telecharge and there's about 5 seats left. Try asking about SRO at the box office.

I just checked.  Yet there's plenty of mezz for Friday and Saturday.

Does anyone know how rush was this morning?

Crowded - 45-50 ppl by 8, over 100 by 9:30. Then one of the box office folks came out and announced there would be 12 rush tickets per show, some $45 balc boxes and $69 balc and after that, $145+ seats with 12 SRO sold an hour before showtime.

If you're wondering about Sunday, there will no rush, yes SRO.

Thx for the info as well. I just looked at TKTS and for the matinee today there is 40% off tix. We'll see at 3pm whether there will be evening tix available. 

As for south street seaport location, Bright Star tix for tomorrow's matinee (aka last performance) is not available.

Can anyone confirm the no rush announcement for the last Sunday matinee tomorrow?

I just asked the box office. No normal rush tickets tomorrow but SRO is effectively rush: about 12 $25 SRO tickets will be sold when box office opens at noon, limit 2 per person.

Wow. I just looked at telecharge and they still have a good number of mezz and side orch seats. I wonder if they'll go to TKTS? Either way, I wish them the best.

Great orchestra seats for the Saturday matinee at TKTS at 12:50.  The board said 30% but the tix were 40%.  Full house, beautiful show, cheered to the rafters.  Martin played the entr'acte.

Cool! I walked by the Cort a few minutes ago and there were around 8-10 people waiting outside.

I ended up not rushing the show (I woke up with a migraine from hell that made me extremely nauseous) and I'm kicking myself for it. I am glad and grateful that I got to see it the three times I did in March. I hope it finds fans regionally (not sure it'll tour but one can hope!) and it lives on. It's a beautiful show gone too soon.

Another question: for people that saw it closing night or pre-closing night (I guess it goes back to the opening night and closing night threads), how was the show and the energy? Was there any closing night speeches or did anything unique happening? My curiosity is getting the better of me.

Sorry you missed it. It was a special show indeed.

Just saw! What a wonderful thread. I'm gonna be kicking myself for a long while for it, but I hope the show lives on in some way.
