I know Wicked and Book of Mormon on tour have lotteries, but do any other shows on tour offer lotteries?

It might be city-specific. I know Boston had a digital lottery for Pippin (my mother won that one), and they have advertised digital lotteries for Sound of Music, Matilda and If/Then in the coming months. Providence has not had digital lotteries and the only show I know they have done an in-person lotto for was Wicked (not sure about Book of Mormon — I saw that one in Boston) and Providence is always very quiet about offering rush tickets as well, and they don't offer them for every show. I am wondering if the digital lotteries are a Broadway Across America thing, as Boston is a BAA city and Providence is not.

In Philly, only Wicked and Book of Mormon have done lotteries while the Kimmel Center usually offers rush for most of their Broadway in Philadelphia shows. While in Philly, Newsies was a rush, in DC it was a lottery, so it may just depend on the stop of the tour.
Book of Mormon, they have the in person lottery (except in DC because there is apparently a ruling of some kind about gathering for any sort of lottery on Kennedy Center priority, but they did standing room) along with random Twitter lottery entries.

In Costa Mesa, Book of Mormon and Wicked were lottery. Newsies was a lottery at the Pantages in Hollywood so I expect it will be a lottery when it plays Segerstrom Center Costa Mesa this spring. At Segerstrom they usually do $20 student rush, especially if it's a less populated show like many of the non-Equity tours. The Ahmanson offers their $20 box seat tickets (Hot Tix) for all productions, including the tours.

In Cincinnati recently, If/Then had an online lottery. I lost, but received an offer to buy discounted tickets.
