Just won A Strange Loop for tomorrow evening. Orch AA108
Both of you who won for A Strange Loop. Congratulations, it's absolutely brilliant. However, do neck exercises beforehand because the stage is extremely high. Have a great time!

I actually ended up winning Mr. Saturday Night too for tomorrow evening, but didn’t realize until 5 minutes to 5pm when I had to claim it by! Doesn’t matter anyway I guess, as I already claimed Strange Loop. Can’t believe I won two though.

Went last night since I had won the lotto for it! Was in left orchestra, 5 rows from the stage. Seats were aisle seats and just barely partial view but were great regardless. I’m not a huge MJ fan but the cast is very talented. My aunt went with me and she’s in her late 50’s and thoroughly enjoyed the show and will def bring family to it whenever they visit.

SIX this past week. Right Orchestra Row B ( three rows from stage)
Fun little show with dynamite cast. Glad to have not paid full price.
Usher mentioned it was one of Adrianna Hick's last shows before moving onto "Some Like It Hot."

Not to be unkind but this begs the question why keep entering if as your comment makes it appear, you really had no interest in going. Same with Come From Away. Although many lotteries have alternate lists they turn to if people don't claim lottery wins, I don't know for a fact every one does in which case someone who really wanted to go wouldn't have been able to, at least via the lottery. Or at a minimum they might have to wait 6 hours to see if they got in as an alternate and may not have been able to wait that long before having to commit to a lesser choice.

I work with kids and unfortunately teachers call out a lot and finding a sub is difficult, so for those performances I won and didn’t take, I was asked last minute to cover for the next day. And by the time I’m finished covering, I wouldn’t have time to make the show since I don’t live in the city. Specifically for Jersey Boys I had a friend interested that would then change their mind last minute when I’d double check with them before buying the ticket.

Off topic, but did you happen to notice if Hangmen had any window cards for sale? Saw the show a few weeks ago, and they weren't selling anything.

Paradise Square (Orchestra Right - Seat F14)
Moulin Rouge (Balcony Right - Seat D22)
Mr. Saturday Night (Mezzanine Center - Seat L101)
Hangmen - Won for the first Preview Night (Orchestra Center - Seat C114)
Six (Orchestra Left - Seat E17)
Suffs (Seat B11)
Harry Potter and The Cursed Child (Orchestra Left - Seat V31)
Plaza Suite (Balcony Left - Seat A21 - Partial View)
I've tried Harry Potter for so long (probably every possible day this year up until I randomly won because someone else declined their tickets). Plaza Suite was also one I've been trying since the first day they did the lottery. I also won these tickets because someone declined them. Have yet to win MJ yet even though I've been consistently trying.

I’ve entered the Girl From the North Country lottery twice and won both times. If anyone wants to see it before it closes (which is absolutely recommend) definitely give the lottery a try! I got L110 in November and B4-6 last week
All of the below are for entries over late April and early May:
Won Play That Goes Wrong (first try!) - partial view, side ORCH row A
Won Dear Evan Hansen (2nd try) - ORCH row N, aisle
Won Aladdin (4th try) - BALC row G, far side
Won Moulin Rouge (9th try) - extreme partial view, ORCH row H side
Haven't won: Mr. Saturday Night (3 tries), The Lion King (4 tries), Company (6 tries), Six (an appropriate 6 tries), American Buffalo (10 tries), Wicked (13 tries), Funny Girl (16 tries), Hadestown (16 tries), Hamilton (16 tries), and Plaza Suite (a whopping 35+ tries, lost count, no wins!)
After trying just about every week since it reopened, I won the Hamilton lottery for yesterday’s matinee. My 6th time seeing it, last time was 2019.
Fabulous as ever.
Right now I’m at Funny Girl. Intermission. Julie’s killing it. Can’t help feeling sorry for Beanie.

I won The Play that Goes Wrong for today’s performance snd we were in Orch B1 and B3, extreme left. The theater had a ton of empty seats and I’m guessing the odds are really good for this one, $30 was a bargain.
I also won lotteries for Six (March) and Freestyle Love Supreme (Dec) on my first try, both front row.

When did you get the e-tickets for Moulin Rouge emailed? Trying to coordinate seats and possibly buy extra as I won for tomorrow.

I won for tomorrows matinee performance, but due to financial reasons I actually can’t go anyone want to claim my ticket? The last time I won, I was almost front row center! $53 per lottery price that I saw
Chorus Member Joined: 3/29/22
I've been fortunate to win quite a few actually! Haven't really been disappointed with any of the seats given the price.
