Yeah just to make sure everyone complaining about it is aware, you don't need to go through the Friday Rush landing page to get Friday Rush tickets. Just go through the normal What's On menus to the show or even specific performance you want and when you try to click in to buy a ticket a few minutes before 1pm it'll put you into the queue. This incidentally makes it quicker once you're through the queue to get to the one particular performance you wanted to see.
I think Friday Rush has become much more popular in recent years because it's just become more well known. Over time knowledge of that method of booking a ticket goes from very-online theatre goers to average theatre goers and eventually to occasional theatre goers. Whilst they hold certain tickets back from most performances for Friday Rush purposes, they also use it as a way of releasing house seats and/or a portion of the generally unsold seats for less popular shows. If you're trying to get tickets to something popular there will naturally be fewer of these seats and it will be more difficult to achieve.
Anyway, good luck today.
