I rushed on Saturday(8-25) for the night show. Got there at 7AM and another person showed up within five minutes. Line didn't get really long till 9. By 9:15 I'd say all the seats were accounted for and the line still continued to grow. They have 30 rush seats per show.
My seats were J 18,20 in the orchestra

It seemed as if most people in line wanted the evening performance

Bump. Planning on trying tomorrow morning - think if I'm there by 9 I'll be okay??

There were only about 20 people in line today at 10:00 when the box office opened. I'm considering rushing Monday to try to catch Max as Che. I'm wondering if it will be a little crazier since Evita is one of the few shows playing on Labor Day.

Just to update for anyone who's wondering... Went this morning. Got there about 8:50, and was 3rd in line. By 9:10, there were about 20 more people behind me. They had tickets for the matinee and the evening. Got row F, seats 16 & 18 for te evening show... They say "partial view" - anyone know how obstructed they are??

You'll probably miss Eva on the balcony during Goodnight and Thank You, and a couple of entrances. Most of the action plays pretty center.

Bumping this;

I wont arrive in NYC this weekend until Saturday night and I'd really like to catch Evita that evening. I'm assuming if I were to rush an hour or so before curtain, all seats would be gone. Any other thoughts, or does this statement seem to ring true? Thanks in advance, friends!

You can always try TKTS.
