I rushed on Saturday. Arrived at 8:40am, and was 7th in line. By the time the box office opened, there were about 40 or so people in line. I needed a single evening ticket. I got orchestra left side row C, and my seat was AMAZING!! 5th time seeing the show!! The people I was sitting next to also rushed, and were 13th in line. They said by the time the got to the window, only single tickets were left.

Happy to hear they're not balcony. When I tried to rush something there a couple of years ago I'd be straight forward and tell the box office if they were balcony I wouldn't buy them. They laughed and gave me side orchestra and said they didn't blame me.

I'm wondering if anybody has bought box seats for this show? I see them on the seating chart, but they don't seem to be sold online (I checked random performances way out in the fall), so I assume they might be sold at the BO only. If so, how much are they and can you buy them in advance?
And how's the view from the boxes? I haven't been to this theater and box views can go either way depending on show and theater (great in Waitress at the Atkinson and at the American Airlines generally, awful at the Jacobs for Color Purple)...

The boxes are where the orchestra is, they are not being sold.

The orchestra is in the boxes, so there are no box seats.
Also, as a side note, I DO NOT recommend the balcony seating for this show. The view is terrible. I've sat in the orchestra twice, mezzanine twice, all those seats were great! Balcony was horrible.
