Rush, lottery, seasonal sales – I’ll post them as I see them. For how I find these deals, check out this blog post. If you think I’ve missed a show, or you find a better deal, let me know! There’s a suggestion box below the list.
Rush tickets are tickets released at a certain time, typically on a first-come, first-serve basis. Show up at the right time and you’re likely to get a ticket. Lottery tickets are just that – luck of the draw. Some plays are easier to hit the lottery on than others. For example, Operation Mincemeat and Matilda hit relatively often, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child not so much.
