I rushed on the 12th and got there at about 9:15 and there were only five or so people in front of me (all five getting 2 tickets)
They only have a certain amount of tickets and most of the seven or so people behind me who got there at 9:50/10 didn't get seats. From what the guy at the box office said, the first sets of tickets are in the boxes and the rest are single seats either in the front row or on the sides of the orchestra
For this show, I wouldn't say front row is good. It's pretty hard to breathe during an extended sequence in act two where a bunch of dry ice is used since it goes literally right on top of the first row, and at one point in the show there's fake snow that fell directly on my side of the first row.
I got there literally an hour before the show and they still had a bunch of rush tickets left. Also, when I rushed Summer the other day there wasn't anyone in line at the Marquis at all

I was at the final dress rehearsal on Sunday and sat in the stage seats and I thought the show was absolutely wonderful
I rushed two weeks ago on a Saturday and got there at about 9:55am and was 8th in line. I had an extreme side row C seat on the left side of the house and missed a lot with the mantle. I also completely missed the whole bit with the audio guy (Trevor, I think) who was in the box seating area right above me. The guy sitting behind me was telling me at intermission how he missed every joke involving the mantle.
I rushed on Tuesday and got there at about 8:00am and was fourth in line (but the second and third person were together so they each got one ticket). The person behind me didn't get in line till about 8:30. More people showed up at around 9 but it definitely wasn't a long line at all. The man at the box office said that they'll only be selling single tickets so while you may purchase two, they won't be together. The two tickets I got were for Row B seat 4 and Row G seat 8. Nei
I was there today (the 14th) and got there at about 7am and the line was already pretty long. The first people in line got there at about 5am. They run out of the front row rush tickets very quickly, I think they only have about 14 but one of the people standing in line said that the number varies just a bit depending on how many tickets the producers decide to release.
When they announced that they were out of rush tickets, most of the people in line left. Howeve
I'm kinda worried for Curious Incident (yes, i know my username has to do with the show but i couldn't think of anything better) because their grosses seem to be getting lower and lower by the week...
I think that Christopher Jackson (George Washington in Hamilton) has a good chance of a nomination for best featured actor, as well as many of the other Hamilton boys. But Daniel Durant, who I believe will be staying with Spring Awakening for Broadway, will probably get a nomination (and maybe win) as well.
