How has the crowd been for the In the Heights lottery? I might try it for the Wednesday April23rd Matinee. Do they always have enought ppl to do a lottery? Do they give discounts if you don't win?
I think you should be okay on a wednesday. It is super busy on the weekend evening shows. On a saturday, they did not give a discount for other tix like avenue q does.

What discounts have they been giving? Lottery is betwen 11:30AM and 12PM right?
Lottery Rush: $26.50 - a set number of front-row seats for each performance, sold via a lottery system. Each person will print their name and the number of tickets (1 or 2) they wish to purchase on a card that is provided. Only one card is allowed per person. Cards are checked for duplication prior to the performance. For Tues-Sat 8:00pm performances, cards are available at 5:30pm for a 6:00pm drawing. For Wednesday and Saturday matinee performances, cards are available at 11:30am for a 12:00pm drawing. For Sunday matinee performances, cards are available at 12:00pm for a 12:30pm drawing. For Sunday 7:00pm performances, cards are available at 5:00pm for a 5:30pm drawing.
Tickets in the last three rows of the Rear Mezzanine (Rows F-H) are regularly priced at $31.50 for all performances. These tickets may be purchased through Ticketmaster or at the box office.
I don't think feel they need discounts especially when you can see fine from those seats.

I think you would have the best chance at winning on a Wednesday matinee, although you never really know. When I did it last week on a Thursday night they said they had discounted tickets available for those who didn't win (but those might have just been the $30 rear mezz seats). There were maybe 40 people there that night.
Best of luck!
Good luck!!!
Hope you win, the show is amazing!!
I'm going Wednesday as well, I hope it's not too crowded.
Good luck to all who go Wednesday! The show is terrific!
I went today and lost. There weren't that many people there though.
