WOW! That's wonderful. Enjoy the show! Definitely rooting for this show tonight.

A Chorus Line played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013.

One of the producers, older guy but I don't know his name, was so excited to see everyone on the line waiting for the show. He said that felt like an award in itself. This will be my first time seeing the show but they are definitely an easy group of people to root for.

I was in line and didn't get tickets but I'm not even mad because the experience was so nice! And the cookies were delicious! Makes me want them to win even more. 

**Also, my offer still stands: if someone wants to rush Tuesday and get 2 tickets, I will pay for your ticket!!**

Rush report Weds 6/14, two show day

i got there first, at ~5:00am. By 5:30 there were four people. Right around 6:00 a whole bunch of people showed up, so by 6:10 there were maybe 11 people. By 7:00 there were 19 people. By 7:45, 25 people. By 8:20, 35 people. A lot more people came later. 

I couldn't tell exactly, but it seemed like everyone there by 7:00 got seats, and everyone there by 8:30 got at least SRO. The matinee seats sold out much much much more quickly. Of the first 7 people, I think I was the only one for the evening show. I don't know if that's the norm, but I thought it was worth mentioning.

i hope that's helpful!

I'm rushing tomorrow morning at 6:30am sharp, do you guys think it's a good time? Also, is anyone willing to split the time with me at around 8:30? I can start at 6:00 if you're willing to come split the time at 8:00. I'll still pay for my own tickets, it's just that I would hope to leave a bit early so I can go to work earlier. If no one is willing to split the time, then I'll be willing to grab a ticket for you if you pay for my ticket + $30 tip :) thanks! PM me if interested!

You should be fine. 

One of the things I like about these boards is that generally nobody's trying to turn a profit...You're trying to get someone to pay you $108 for an obstructed view seat. Don't get me wrong, it's a fantastic view, but that's ridiculous to add $30 for a 3.5 hour wait.

Hi! Sorry I just joined this forum and am not really familiar with the rules. Then no tip is fine, as long as anyone's willing to pay for my ticket :)

I don't think it's necessarily a rule, but a norm. And no worries! I just saw the show yesterday and LOVED it. I hope you enjoy it!

Is anyone planning to rush this Sunday 6/18 that I can meet up with at 8, I'd be willing to pay half of your ticket. Also, What time does it tend to line up now after the Tony win? Is It more likely to get packed earlier than 6 now?

Friday 6/16 report: I came 6:30 and was eighth in line. The next person in line came about 20 minutes later. Another came ten minutes later. Then when I checked 7:30 there were a total of 15 people in line. At 8:20 there were 25 or so people. Then I lost track...I had to leave for work so a friend of mine took my place at around 9:40. At last we got 2 sro. There were only 8 rush tickets today, which is less than the normal amount.

 

ps: this is probably my best rush experience ever! Everyone was so nice... a gentleman in line bought everyone coffee, and there were extras so he went and gave coffee to everyone across the street who were in line for Dear Evan Hansen too. Wow! He was like, "well this show is kind of basically about helping everyone in need for food and stuff so...." well bless this man. And then about an hour later a lady bought us all donuts...! This is the reason I love theater...

I just LOVE this story! Coming from Toronto to try and get tickets Tues or Wed. Why the hell didn't I go when it was premiering there? Nothing like Broadway I guess...

SRO has always been available for every performance since the show opened. But thanks for letting us know.

A Chorus Line played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013.

I know it's always available. I meant that as right that instant. Got mine at 4pm. Didn't line up in the morning, just took a chance since I was in the area that time.

Checking in for a rush report for this morning!

First person was there at 5. People who got in line around 10:30 got SRO tickets. I believe it was 10 seats, 25 SRO.

I also just want to say I've rushed CFA 3 times and the experience has been amazing each time, especially today. Everyone has been so kind and friendly and suddenly 5 hrs doesn't seem so long. Keep it up y'all!

Hey! My boyfriend and I are coming to New York July 5-7 and we have tickets for shows the 5th and 7th but those were my picks I know he really wants to see this show. I'm nervous about making him wake up early and not getting a ticket. If we got there at 4:45am think we will have a chance? Thanks friends!!

You shouldn't have any problem! I would say that 4:45 might be a little too early. Anytime before 6 or even 7 maybe even 8am depending on the day should guarantee you a seat!

I'm going to try rush/SRO Friday, the 23rd, and I'll probably get there before the box office opens, so I'm really hoping to grab a ticket for either.

Is it bad I want to see this show again and again? There's plenty to see in NYC, I know...but I'm in love with this damn show...and the cast. 

I don't WANT to live in what they call "a certain way." In the first place I'd be no good at it and besides that I don't want to be identified with any one class of people. I want to live every whichway, among all kinds---and know them---and understand them---and love them---THAT's what I want! - Philip Barry (Holiday)

Hi Everyone! My nieces are going to be in town for one day and I feel like they'd love this show - would y'all say that the Sunday rush line is especially bonkers these days? I'm fine with waking one of them up early to go wait with me, but I really want to make sure we end up with tickets (Rush or SRO) since we only have that one chance to see a show! Is there any updated info on the best time to show up on a Sunday? Looks like they only sell 10 Rush tickets now - is that correct?

Thanks in advance!
