For the Friday evening show, I rushed at 7:30am. I didn't mind waiting, as I was 6th in line. The line grew to be 60 people deep, and my seats were far right orch for $38. Great view for the price, and I didn't miss any action, to my knowledge. The earlier the better, in my opinion, as this is a must-see.
I was there last Thursday and arrived around 8:30- got a seat in the second row of the mezz, all the way to the left side of the house. One or two small things missed from the staging, but it was a great seat for the price. By the time the box office opened, I'd say there were maybe 30 people in line, but I didn't count.
I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.
Got one myself for tonight's show, too. The good thing on Saturdays (& Wednesdays) is that they don't start selling SRO for the evening show until after the matinee starts(2:00).
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.
I've been looking forward to seeing it again since I first went while visiting D.C. The delayed sale must've helped, and maybe the weather is impacting the walk up today too? Either way, I'm excited!
3rd time seeing the show. Haven't been this in love with a show in a long time.

Had spot #109 which is just about dead center - great vantage point and with the run time what it is, standing isn't bad at all (unlike SRO for The Front Page, which was rough). Enjoyed it just as much as I did the first time, if not more!
Also got a kick seeing Barry Manilow in the house. I happened to glance over once or twice and he seemed to be actively enjoying himself. Sankoff and Hein were there as well, so that was neat.
yes, I was funny seeing Manilow & his people sneak in just before the show started & then sneak out during the bands' encore.

Saturday's(I've been told) are crazy. The good thing is that there's two shows which they sell when the box office opens(both shows). Line starts to get long [typically] by 7:30am.

Yes. It's been sold for every show since it's opened. There's now 25 spots, $32 each.

I've mentioned it in this thread, but if you want SRO for the evening show on Saturday, it won't be sold until after the matinee begins.

Last night was the first night since they opened they didn't sell SRO. It is available tonight & all weekend.

I rushed today for the matinee. My boyfriend and I arrived at 5:45am, and were 6th and 7th in line. The various people in front of us were getting both evening and matinee tickets... the first one arrived around 3am after getting to Dear Evan Hansen and finding too many people there already. People gradually arrived from when we got there until 7:00ish, when it started picking up. By 7:30 there were probably about 50 people in line, and it grew to about 100 by 10:00am. They only sold 5-6 evening rush tickets, but there seemed to be plenty of matinee, as my boyfriend and I got two each with no problem, and the people after us also got some. Not sure how many total tickets (for rush or SRO) they had, because when I passed by again about 10 minutes later, there were people from the rush line still moving in and out of the box office. We had seats F 20 and 22 and G 20 and 22 (all the way at the end of the aisle on the side). They were great- we basically saw everything, only missing a few lines here and there. They definitely stage the show to accommodate for the limited sight lines. It's a beautiful show- definitely worth the wait!
As expected, but I've heard the Saturday rushes are crazy for COME FROM AWAY. Do you know if they also sold SRO for the matinee right after all the rush tickets were sold?

I'm the 5th in line for rush right now and just learnt my friend can no longer come this evening- so I can pick up another rush ticket if you can also cover my ticket.
You can give me cash or Venmo me when we meet at 6:30pm at the theater, or another place/time around the theater before that.
After reading this it seems tjay the box office normally sells SRO right after rush or right before the matinee performance. I am planning on going on a Saturday, so it seems that is also very popular. My problem is I'm rushing another show that day. I was planning on getting tickets for that and after the matinee going to get come from away SRO for the evening. It seems that plan won't work though. Would I be able to score a SRO if I run to the theater right after I get the ticket for my first show?
