Well it appears that the Pippin rush line is safe for the time being. They have announced a contest on Facebook. They are giving away weekly prizes it you VINETHELINE.
Changes I have been told by staff that might happen (No surprise if it does happen, Once did the same thing). Price of rush tickets and standard tickets may go up. Rush seats are expected to change. Boxes front and back may change to full price. Not sure what is going to happen with the Orchestra rush seats yet. Will update when I get more info.
I am not exactly sure. Go to Facebook and check it out. pippin the musical and it is on their page. They usually do not sell rush right at 10 am. Only when the show is sold out. Get there not later than 7 am. It used to be 8 but things are picking up.
IT is on their Facebook page PIPPINthemusical, Scroll down to June 3rd!!!!
It has something to do with Twitter, and looping video. Check out their twitter feed from Sunday night. There are examples posted from the cast and crew.
I love this idea, it is awesome that the show is staying connected with its loyal fans in new ways!
However, and I take all this with a grain of salt until its confirmed, raising the already high rush ticket price AND making the "miserable" box seats full price just seems like a silly thing to do. Unless Pippin feels like they are going to be the new standard for rush pricing, most shows are below $40, correct? If they only bump up the tickets to $40 i'd be fine with, but anything more is going to be hard to swallow.
Once raised their prices the week after they won (I think it is on the weekend only). I am only reporting what I have been told by staff members about the seating changes. Nothing is confirmed yet, So yes, take it with a grain of salt.
Mormon raised ticket prices the morning OF the Tonys if I remember correctly.
Gotta strike while the iron is hot.
Also: instead of complaining about a rise in cost for rush tickets, be grateful that they discount them at all -- rush is still below 1/2 price, and approximately at only 1/3 the price of a regular ticket. Still quite the bargain.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?
