I just left the box office, and the agent says that there will be some sort of last-minute tickets. They were told that it will be $29, 2 hours before the show. She does not know if it’s going to be rush or lottery quite yet. Exciting news!

I just did a range search on the Telecharge website for the entire month of December and am still seeing some $119 tickets for sale onseveral different dates. Usually the back few rows. I was able to be flexible with the dates when I was searching

Ive been on the extreme side up in the balcony, so at a similar angle. If you have a choice, take the house left seats. Jake stays just off center, so no problems with this monologue. Tom moves around the stage but d

I don't know about the permanent part, but JMI is doing Hercules this week, so he is out at least until the 8th.

I was there last night as well and didn’t win either, but my only dislike was having to stand as long as we did. I thought it was very well executed- I’m still amazed how 1,000 people stayed silent for an hour+ LOL.
As far as it getting dark, even they made a joke about it. By 40 min in, I knew my number by heart, did you really need light?
oldfriends said: "So how does the lotto work? Once you hear your lotto number called, you go up and give them your ticket and then they give you your pair of tickets? Or do you need to verify with your Patron ID? My wife and I are waiting, and we got our two tickets mixed up - we don’t know which Patron ID belongs to which lotto number. Are we screwed?"
You’ll be fine - just let them know your tickets got mixed up. I got here just before the cutoff, so th

mpkie said: “I was at the same show on the opposite end and view looks pretty identical but in reverse.”
That’s awesome! Late wave over to you :)
I agree - those box seats looked terrible. The folks in them on my side kept trying to lean over to see! One left during the show and never came back - I wonder if they left completely or maybe got a spot in the SRO area.
Was there a bar on your side like the one on mine?
ArtMan said: "CarmenA3, I'm glad that bar didn't distract your view. It would have drove me crazy. I know I would have fixated on it."
I thought it would bug me too (and it was hard to capture the right angle in pics), but even at 5’2”, the bar was more out of the way than it appears in the pic. So anyone even an inch taller won’t have a problem :)
Saw the show tonight (8/29) and loved it! It's a slow start, but sucked me right in until a phone went off 4 TIMES during the pivotal scene between Emma and Robert. Grrr
Anywho, I was in seat Mezz A27 (last seat on house left). The bar did not interfere at all with my view - I completely forgot about it during the show.
The upstage projections are also projected in the black drop area in front of the stage bottom, so you won't miss any of the few projections they ha

Thanks for the in-person info. I’ve been curious about it, but since I’ve been able to get the Todaytix rush (with a mix of Dress Circle/Balcony spots) I haven’t bothered to go down there. If those seats are Orchestra, I may giv

Earlier in the thread someone mentioned there will be rush. Yes, we're all anxiously waiting details :) Personally, I'm hoping for non-lottery as I live in the City and can do in-person rush.
ND_2000: So sorry you had to see that, it was totally uncalled for on his part. Based on his behavior, I have a feeling that this is his M.O. Get super aggressive and loud so that people are intimidated and cave in. I feel terrible for the ticket agent!
Rush line drama always makes me so uncomfortable - true, there are no "written in stone" rules and you never know who you're getting into a disagreement with, but I wish everyone would behave properly. Didn't their par
The sun is out in full force, an umbrella would be helpful - black and bedazzled for extra points :)
3:30 update: 10 people in line and 1 person is holding a spot for her mom.
At 5pm, only 7 SRO spots were made available.

I am 4th in line today at 12:56pm. The 3 people in front of me arrived around noon. A nice breeze is helping mitigate the heat so it’s not as hot as I was expecting.

It’s weird that a price hasn’t been announcedfor the front-row deal. Plus, why give people the option to buy up to six tickets? Two would have been enough, enabling more fans to get them rather than scalpers."
They posted a $99-119 price for the front row seats on their IG...
