American Son Rush Oct 7

Arrived at the Rush a little late yesterday 10/6 for the first preview (11am). Was told nothing left for Rush, but it was not sold out so check back after 3pm to see if they had any more. Ran there after a 2pm show and was told there’s were two tickets available, $40. Side orchestra, row F seats 14-16. Missed absolutely no action, very far side but a wonderful view of facial expressions. No student ID was required for the tickets.

Boy, I have a totally different take on this. It wasn't about generosity. It was a business transaction. One stranger was asking another stranger to, in essence, cut in line on his behalf because he wasn't willing or wasn't able to
We were wristband 17/18 and got the last two SRO/partial view seats for both shows today. Most people in front of us were only buying one ticket each so probably about 20 total today for both shows.

Got here at 9:30pm and we're number 16 and 17. Don't see an evening show if you want to be up front in the line.

"
I'd say anything in the Walter Kerr but balcony is fine. It's pretty small but the balcony is high up and you see a lot of lighting equipment in your way.

I emailed them yesterday and they replied by saying the forwarded my email to the Management of Lincoln Center. Still waiting for management to reply. Currently pissed.

This was not a very well done sale and I think this one is on LCT, not Ticketmaster surprisingly.
bwayalltheway said: "I think the most surprising thing is that LCT doesn't have staff who can help us out with this issue right now. You'd think for a Broadway on sale they would be prepared with staff, even one member, to handle situations such as this.
"
I just don't understand how some of the membership numbers are working and some are not. I'd imagine LCT sent Ticketmaster
