I also loved the umbrellas with eyeballs opening and spinning all over the stage-it was a spectacular touch to see robot eyes spinning everywhere. Present a current high school, college, university, or international student ID at the Box Office to purchase tickets for 10 - 25 each, depending on the show. For Saturday evenings, Rush Tickets go on sale at 2:00 pm. For matinees, Rush Tickets go on sale four hours before curtain.

Student Rush When available, Student Rush tickets are offered in-person at the Box Office beginning one hour prior to show time. 35 Rush tickets in the Orchestra are offered online at on the day of the performance and are subject to availability.
The dolls’ ballet fit beautifully with the scene. Her voice was stunning and bright I’m hopeful I’ll see more of her at the Met soon. She totally stole the act and was a delight as the wind up doll Hoffmann falls in love with. Which was perfect as it cleared the way for Erin Morley playing Olympia, the doll. I think the eye was supposed to be rolling around throughout the scene, but it was making quite a bit of noise so I think it was halted. The first act in Spalanzani’s workshop was visually quite a treat with a (creaky) giant eye rolling back and forth near the top of the stage, and a weird dragon snaking around a pole that also descended from the ceiling. Michael Yeargan’s sets, amazingly steep looking, were gorgeous. Rush Tickets are no longer available at the Box Office or over the phone. The tickets, in prime seating locations, are available on a first-come, first-served basis for all performances, excepting the New Year’s Eve gala. Once we moved past the prologue, the first act of Bartlett Sher’s production gathered steam. 25 - Rush Tickets are offered daily online on the Met website.
