Hi all -- does anyone know if there are general rush tickets for Privacy? Or a lottery? Or standing room only? Thanks!! Looking for cheap ways to see the show :)
It looks like there is a digital lottery via the TodayTix app (which you should be able to download for most smartphones/tablets). Though since it shows as currently closed --- I'm guessing it re-opens either at midnight or sometime around 9am for tomorrow's show(s) --- it doesn't have pricing details available.
The TodayTix lotteries usually open at midnight, I believe, and the Privacy lottery tickets are $20.
ETA: if you happen to win and have never used TodayTix before, you can use a referral code for $10 off that...shameless plug, my referral code is ACMIB
There IS in fact general rush for Privacy in addition to their TodayTix lotto, and from what I gather, they've been selling tickets pretty consistently. After learning this, I decided to rush today for the matinee. They released the rush tickets at 1pm for a 2pm curtain (for evening shows, it's 6:00), and I got there at 10:30am. I was 3rd; the first person in line got there at 9am and the 2nd person at 9:30. Nobody showed up behind me until 11:30. At 11:45, a bunch of people started coming. By 12:30, there were probably 20 people there. I didn't stay to find out how many they sold, but I heard from a couple other people that they have usually been selling somewhere around 10 tickets per performance - presumably the unused house-seats.
$20, cash only. The seats were in the 2nd to last row (which felt surprisingly far away for an Off-Broadway theatre). Lucky for me, they moved me to an empty 3rd row seats right before the show started.
I rushed today. I was 5th in line. I arrived at 1:20. They gave out 10 tickets, the person who got the last ticket arrived around 3:30 (most people in the front of the line only got 1 ticket). My seat was K 12 which was a little bit more than half way back, dead center. Great seat! Waiting 4.5 hours was totally worth it! I also really enjoyed the show.
