I don’t have a problem with the seating discussion here, especially since there has been literally one preview performance.
But also, anyone who feels strongly that there should be a separate thread can just create one, rather than asking no one in particular in this thread to do so.

I’m still curious about the mezzanine PV seats. Orch makes sense to me, as I remember getting a cheap ticket in row L, all the way to the right, for the Ferryman, and even that was obstructed a bit (although to be fair that set was a bit more complex).
I rarely see shoes twice, but I got last minute ticket for yesterday’s performance and the energy was insane—Beth Leavel got a standing ovation after The Lady’s Improving—so I can only imagine what today’s performance will be like. I so wish I could be there.

Well, now there’s less transparency, so they could in theory not actually sell any tickets through the lottery and no one would know. Which could benefit them financially since the tickets that would have been used for lottery could be sold at a higher price.
Versus not offering rush tickets on any given day, in which case you’d have a

I got there 10/15 minutes early last year, and people were already shopping. So if you want first pick, I'd get there early.
For the most part prices are reasonable, but it really depends on the table and what you're looking for. Leftover merch from a closed show is a totally diffe

I already bought the the $90 seats they have available in rows G and H of the mezzanine (I.e. the small rows of three at the ends). Anyone know why those are full view, but the ends of closer rows are partial? (Did that sentence make sense?)
kusally said: "So I’m seeing a lot of posts that front mezznia great and back mezz is partial...do you know how far back is still ok? Row H? No pics on that website yet"
I thought I responded to this thread, but I don’t see it.
My group had mezz row H, seats 2-8. I was a little nervous beforehand but it turned out to be an amazing view. The only issue was the platform that sticks out in the audience (I forget the technical term) was cut off a

It’s only relevant for 2 more days, but my Hillary and Clinton seats tonight were Orch row S (last row) center.

It was a little odd and really did take away from the brilliant work she had been doing."

Last weekend my friend got there at 8:15 and was eighth in line. I feel like 9 on a Tuesday would probably be fine.

I normally don’t see shows more than once, but I just HAD to see Brian D’Arcy James, and I loved the show just as much, if not more, the second time.
I'd honestly recommend getting there at 8. I rushed this past Saturday, and there were already 20 people in line by 8:15 (although to be fair there are two shows on Saturday, and Saturdays are generally busier for rush). You're also less likely to get partial view if you get

While I really want to recommend Waitress (the new cast is incredible!), I just saw it last night and it ended up running 2h45m, so that may cut it too close for you. I don’t know if that’s typical—just my experience.

I also rushed today (4/13). I got there at around 8:15, and I’d say there were about 20 people in front of me. By the time I got the the front, they still had tickets for both shows. I got orch left, row P for the evening show.
petewk87 said: "Has it been confirmed by the box office that there is no rush? Has anyone stopped by recently? Thanks!"
This isn’t really helpful, but when I was picking up my ticket before the show tonight (~7:15), someone behind me asked the box office. They’re response was “We don’t have any available now.”

(Spoilers?)
Purple carpet. Three gold walls with a ledge/bench around the stage. The ledge is used as seating for the actors. That’s basically it, plus some furniture that gets moved around.
Sorry if that makes it hard to picture—maybe someone else can describe it better.

Have you never noticed how you can leave your seat at a movie and return without causing much disruption? Try leaving a center section of. a Broadway show for a pee mergency. Not so easy.”
Also, movie theater seats are wayyyy more comfortable. I’ll happily sit through a long movie, especially with reclining seats and a ton of fo
