Just walked by at 3pm on Saturday 7/14 (on my way elsewhere) and the line is already 25-30 deep for the evening show.

Thanks! They gave out L far sides for the first two people and then C far sides for the third and fourth. For some reason the box office got super busy right around 5 so they didn’t take us in until about ten minutes later but they were efficient and the woman in charge was organized and great.

They asked us to move back behind the barricade by the driveway. I got here shortly after 2 so there wasn’t really a line of people trying to get in anymore. Then at 2:30 we could start the line. When it gets close to the matinee letting out they’ll move us over to under the overpass to the right of the theater (when looking directly at the entrance).

Report from the rush line for the 7:30pm show Wednesday July 10 - at 2:05 they told us the line can’t officially start until 2:30. There were five of us at that time and we formed an unofficial line. So there are now about 9 of us at 2:25 with the official line about to begin. First person arrived at 1:45.
I have no hearing issues, but sat in the last row of the mezzanine, slightly to the right, and had major trouble hearing the actors - seemed like the mics weren't loud enough or something. The people around me all had the same reaction.

What time do they typically start selling the SROs? Once it's Sold Out or at a set time?"

I did it last week, tickets were $99/part and my seats were Dress Circle row E house left. Sometimes you can score better deals/seats just by getting last minute tickets, but no guarantee!
Nathan Saltstone is on as Scorpius for this Thursday/Friday set of shows, no other main character understudies are on. I'm thoroughly enjoying his performance. I do have to say, though, there's something about Anthony Boyle's mannerisms/voice that made his performance truly standout when I saw it this past spring. Such a fantastic spectacle overall, having a blast and can't wait for Part Two tonight!
