For those who are interested they have established a student rush policy. Price is $30.

Is this a pretty easy rush? Where are the seats located?

When I rushed it, we got house-left box seats. Don't know if all the rush seats are in the boxes though. It was a pretty easy rush when I saw it in September, and I doubt it's gotten any harder, especially since Rose Byrne left.

I rushed this on Rose Byrne's final performance on January 4th. My story is most definitely an anomaly, so don't necessarily use this as a guide.

I was taking Metro North Harlem Line to arrive by the box office by 11:30 for a 12:00 rush ticket sale. Our train was stalled due to a transformer fire, so we sat at Mount Kisco for an hour. I finally had someone pick me up at the train and drive me to North White Plains to get a local train to Grand Central. Despite the transportation disaster, I got to the box office at 12:30, but they were unfortunately out of tickets I ended up buying balcony seats for only $45 a ticket, and they were honestly great.

I was disappointed because I have heard that the rush was so easy that people were arriving only an hour before curtain and getting tickets. Maybe Rose's final performance was well sold, or there were a lot of tourists still in town? I guess my advice would be to show up a decent amount of time before it opens just to be safe, it wasn't as easy on the day I went that everyone (including Broadway Rush Report) has made it sound!

I was at the box office at 12:00 pm on Saturday and at 1:30 pm on Sunday. They were out of rush both times. The show's not grossing that well now, so there indeed are a lot of empty seats, but apparently they only have a limited amount of rush they're willing to distribute. finally just went to the TKTS booth instead. Also, Anna was out that day due to an appearance in L.A. Would've been nice if they had put that on the cast board by 130 pm on sunday, box office person told me everyone was supposed to be on, which was not the case at all. You would think 90 minutes before curtain somebody would've kindly informed the box office that this world renowned lead actress was currently 4000 miles and 3 time zones away at the moment.
