what is the latest time that a person could arrive at the box office and still get tickets? I've never attempted rush tickets, but I'm thinking of this as a possibility.

Not sure if anyone is keeping track of this, but I just wanted to update on my experience.

I rushed yesterday (6/9, the Friday before the Tony's) because I really wanted to watch this before the Tony's tomorrow. I got there around 6:55am and was the last one to get a rush ticket for the performance. I lucked out because I was by myself and the person in front of me wanted to buy two tickets, so I snagged the last seat. I'd recommend getting there around 6:30am to be safe.

Still following this -- thanks for posting! Do you know approximately how many tickets they gave out? I am hoping to try for Tuesday the 13th, when Dave Malloy is on!

Has anyone rushed this post-Tonys?  I'm taking a trip to the City this weekend, and I'm wondering how early I need to get in line on Saturday to even have a chance at a matinee ticket.

Today (Saturday, June 17), I got here at 540am and was 12th in line. First person in line arrived at 415am; the person in front of me, who rushes a lot, said the first person in line hardly gets there before 3am these days.

By 630am, there were 21 in line. By 715am, there were 28 in line. By 830am, there were 44 people in line.

If anyone is willing to pay for my ticket, I can get one more for the matinee today! Just PM me.

For anyone who's going to try a Wednesday show: I got there a little after 6:30am and was about 20th in line. By 7:15am there were at least 30 people in line and by the time the box office opened, it was well over 50. It seemed like it was a good mix of people getting matinee and evening. I was able to get a ticket to the evening performance (Orch D17).

What are the chances someone is rushing next Saturday (July 1) and could snag me a ticket for the matinee? Lauren Zakrin is on as Natasha so I really want to be there, but my flight doesn't get in until 9:30am and the stupid ticket is non-refundable so I can't change it and fly in earlier. I would just buy a ticket ahead of time but the only tickets left are $189+ and that's a bit out of my price range!

UPDATE: Never mind guys, I found someone! :)

What time did you and your friend end up arriving and how far back in the line are you?

@Yaoqian, you should look at StubHub. I just bought a ticket for Groban's last show for pretty cheap!

Thank you so much for this suggestion! May I ask what area did you purchase and what price was it just as a reference?

I don't want to make a new thread for this, so – any word on how Josh's last show went? Anything special happen?

All I've heard so far is that he got a standing ovation after Dust and Ashes.
