I have the chance for a front row mezz seat for Come From Away. Would I be better off purchasing this, or going for rush? Torn between a great seat and saving money. I'm seeing Angels in America the day before (both parts) so I'm concerned that I'm just going to be wiped out afterwards and won't be able to enjoy myself at the show later if I have to drag myself out of bed early in the morning to get in line. Is it worth the price for a regular seat?

I would check to see which seats are offered through rush. I've sat in a lot of partial view seats, and "Come From Away" was really the only one that actually bothered me. If rush is partial view, just something to consider.

For this show, I think the view for SRO is actually better than the view for rush.  Keep in mind, though, that the box office sells all rush seats before it starts selling SRO.  So if you can get to the box office for "rush," but wait until all the rush seats are sold, then you can get an SRO ticket!  I think that might be the best option.

Standing over rush.  Easy call. We got rush box & stood. Would have lost impact.

Don't have an issue with doing standing room. Think that's a better option than just going ahead and buying a seat in the mezz?

If you're in the rush line and prefer SRO, the box office will sell you SRO instead if you ask.

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 will be starting up in Somerville, NJ on January 20, 2018. The tour continues through Sarasota, FL(Apr 24-25); Panama City, FL(Apr 27); Jacksonville, FL(Apr 28); Kansas City, MO(May 29-Jun 3); then touring throughout Asia in June - August.

I did SRO and had a fantastic view. The theater is small so you are not that far back and the show is short so you're not standing for long.
