I am taking a last minute trip into the city this weekend because we won the Hamilton lottery for Friday. (I'm super stoked!) I plan to stay Friday night and try to see a Saturday matinee. Considering all of the online lotteries, rushes, and discount codes/TKTS, what would my best option be? I am interested in Come from Away, Hadestown (I know that's my longest shot), Dear Evan Hansen, Mean Girls, Moulin Rouge (also tough, I'm sure), and Waitress.

Thanks!

Waitress has a LOT of availability right now for Saturday's matinee so that's your best shot of the shows you mentioned for TKTS options

I think Fiddler still has digital rush via TodayTix so as long as you jump on there as soon as rush starts, you should have good shot! In fact, I just tried and could’ve got one for tonight’s 7:00 p.m. performance. Total cost = $37.50. It’s sooo good!!!

I didn't know this was an option. Thank you!
