Now that Once has switched to a general rush as of today, did anyone go this morning? What time did you get there/how were the lines? Also where were the seats? (Is it the same they've been giving for lotto?)

I got there at 1:30 and both performances had none, quite a few people looking for lotto too. Makes me think they didn't have very many at all.

Perhaps it's just whatever was empty as more shows seem to be doing lately?

My friend and I got there at 8:45 this morning and the girl in front of us got the last ticket available. I'm not sure, but there were maybe 25 people in line ahead of us?

Got there at about 10:45 (for a noon box office opening) this morning and the tickets ran out a few people ahead of me. They give away 20 tickets per show.

Do they still give the front row like the lottery did and the partial views? Or is it only partials now for rush?

I think in order to guarantee a ticket you should get there by 8.

Box office opens at 10 on Saturdays. But you will need to get there quite early. I went on Thursday at 7:30, and the line cut off four people behind me. (There were at least fifty people in line for twenty tickets.) The show is amazing, the wait is worth it.

I got there at 8 am on Wednesday and the couple 2 people ahead of me got the last tickets. I got a ticket at TKTS, but will be rushing again this morning and will be getting there MUCH earlier. Once Rush?

Perhaps they'll wait until after the reviews but if it continues to be this crowded maybe they should switch to a lottery. As the weather gets warmer and the city gets more crowded the rush lines will only be longer.

It was super crowded this morning. Got there at 8am, and was still too late to get a ticket.

The line went from the box office door all the way up to the awning for Other Desert Cities. Crowded. Get there way early if you want a chance at getting tickets. And this was for a two show day, so I assumed my chances were pretty good.

Can anyone tell us where the rush ticket seats are? Or if you have gotten rush tickets where did you sit?

The rush tickets are scattered around the theatre. There are side orchestra/mezzanine and boxes. Seems like it's whatever is left.

It's kind of close but I don't feel like it takes away from anything. The stage is low enough that it's still full view.

I'm in line now, got here at roughly 9:30, and the line is all the way to Other Desert Cities. Incredible. I'm happy for the show that there is this much interest, but damn I couldn't believe how long the line was. Probably won't be getting tickets unless I get here much earlier - the people first in line had set up chairs, so I'm only assuming they've been here for quite some time.
