(Insert Clever Name) said: "Could it have been worse because of the holiday week? The earliest we can get there is 8... should we be okay getting there at that time?"
It is my educated opinion that an 8AM arrival on the weekend will get you nothing. Maybe get into the city the night before and party till 5AM at which time you will then head to the line.
Wick3 said: "That makes sense to have him do 5 shows a week to start.
I'm surprised the producers went the TKTS route as of late though. I thought they'd have discounts through telechargeoffers first."
TKTS doesn't require offering up any future-date seats at a discount ( other than maybe a few for the next day matinee ) and simply decide last-minute on a show by show basis whereas TelechargeOffers exposes possibly months of future perform

It was worth it, but the bitter cold was so unbearable at times so that's probably why the line wasn't too long."
Were both your seats considered Full-View or Partial-View?

They only had two rush tickets for the matinee and two for the evening, but they did sellstanding room for the matinee this morning. I'm not sure when they started selling for the evening, but there was definitely standing room tonight."
Danielle49 said: "Broadway Week tickets are live for January 21-February 10. Does anyone know if these tickets can be purchased at the box office as well (to avoid fees) or is the pricing only available online?"
At the box office is no problem ( got mine yesterday ) ... just have the code handy.
Ferryman Cast Change Jan 9

I'm only going to attend this production once. Any opinions on which cast I should see? ( Yes, I know no one has seen the new cast yet perform in THIS play. )
Here I Am said: "Does anybody know if they sell standing room tickets even when the show isnt sold out? Id honestly much rather stand for this show than be cramped in a tiny seat with no leg room for over three hours."
I highly doubt it, though what is the rule about choosing to stand in the area behind the Orchestra even if you have a ticketed-seat?
60'splayoff said: "Long story long, I ended up not getting tickets (apparently a single person in line is a spot saver for all your friends and family to join @ 9:45am- the person in front of me had 2 friends join much later and they got 6 tickets. Infuriating.)"
There is NO spot-saving on rush lines. You all in line at the correct time tell the "joiners" to go to the back of the line!
Trang Huynh2 said: "Doubt if anyone's on this thread at this time, but I'm currently at the Booth and not sure where the rush line begins? I'm the only one here (arrived at 8:15), so I'm not too worried--just wondering if I'm standing in the right spot. Thanks!"
The line starts underneath the awning at the 45th Street glass box office doors.
theatrechic said: "Anyone have any more recent experience? Im thinking of rushing tomorrow. Is 8:30 a good time or because of it being a busy time should I plan for earlier? Thank you for your help."
Depends on whether or not you want to be sure to get a seat or if you're fine simply getting SRO.
Metfan2 said: "One should never purchase a ticket on the street. The bar code can be turned off and the only way to know is when the ticket is scanned.
One idea (not that realistic but if the price is below face), ask the scalper to accompany you to the theater (without giving them money). Have it scanned and pay at that time."
By the letter of the law what you suggest above is illegal since business can not be conducted within 500 feet of the box office.<
