Since previews start this week, does anyone think the box will be selling morning of rush tickets? Looks like most of the performances this week aren't sold out.

I don't know about any announced rush policy, but I asked the box office two weeks ago and they said they'd definitely do standing room for any performances that sold out - but maybe not during previews / til after it opened. Since the theater is small, despite ticket sales, I wouldn't be surprised if most performances sold out mid-day and standing room became available pretty easily early afternoon - at least I'm hoping.

Thank you! I think I'm going to try for the Wednesday matinee. There's no option to buy the box seats on telecharge and for meteor shower they were selling those for cheap when the box office opened so I'm thinking they might do that. Or, if anything, possibly the "discount" rate which was $79 for extreme side orchestra partial view which they were also doing for Meteor Shower. I know this is a bigger draw, but I'm still hoping!

No rush for Boys in the Band yet nor standing room. I managed to get a box seat for $100.

It appears so. Box office lady said rush and SRO might be available later on, just not for the first performance. I have a ticket in the mezz for a future performance but I really value being close to the stage so I kind of jumped on getting that box seat. I’m box right. I’ll share sightlines later.

Thanks so much for this info. When she said later on do you think she meant later on in the run or just not for this first preview? Looking to stop by on Wednesday, but would rather line up elsewhere if there's no chance they can sell me anything but a full price ticket.

I imagine she meant later on in the run, unfortunately. Probably later in previews/past opening night. I’ll ask again when I go Friday, I can stop by the box office.

How was the view from the boxes?  Any obstructions?

For those that don’t mind last minute arrangements, definitely try StubHub... I was eyeing a pair of tickets for last night that was originally priced at $150... ended up getting them for $75 half an hour before the show... center orchestra, amazing seats. Even with their fees it ended up being cheaper than every other alternative really...

They also had some side orchestra seats for $70.
