Annie Lottery

According to Rush Report, approximately 20 people participate in the Annie lottery. For those, that live/work nearby, is this accurate? I want to see this, (only by lottery win) in June, and if true, looks like a possibly easy lottery win. Of course, Tony week and Jane Lynch, may make the crowds bigger.

I can't comment on the crowds but when I was picking up my tickets on a Wednesday night in March they had lottery tickets left over.

I can second what egnarotsew said. When I did the lottery in March on a Wednesday mat, everyone who entered got tickets. I was very pleasantly surprised at the lack of crowd, especially during a Spring Break week.

I would say that since ANNIE is doing stunt casting this soon after opening then the demand isn't there. Not sure if GLEE is still a big draw and Lynch is barely on it anymore (nor does she sing). It won't be picking up any Tonys so I don't think that's a factor either.

theatrefan, you need to check your attitude. You asked a question and Clyde answered it honestly. No need to be rude to someone helping you out.

Faith and Clyde I am sorry for my snarky remarks. I have been in a bad mood today and I took it out on you too. My apologies.
