Went on thursday and everyone got tickets.
Lotto crowds for Young Frankenstein fluctuate honestly, one day it's crowded and the next...no one is there.

Good luck!

Any updates on how crowded the YF lotto has been recently...particularly on a Wednesday matinee?

Last Wednesday matinee's lotto was not that crowded, maybe 20-25 people and they picked 16 names. If you don't get picked (like I was), they offer first row balcony tickets for the same price.

I played it last sunday. My entire family of 5 entered, and we ALL won!! it was amazing. But there were several people who didnt win. But if you and your mom both enter, you have a good chance of winning.

Sutton is leaving July 6th. Roger doesn't have a confirmed departure date and he's been out the past few weeks shooting a pilot.

I played on April 26th, me and my sister were the first or second to enter our names and we lost. Every one who entered their names in the beginning lost, the people who did it right before they closed the lottery won. In other words, they didn't shuffle the names.

Best bet:
You enter your name when they first start allowing
Your mom enters hers right before they stop accepting names.

There was an article about this two days ago, do a search.

My friend and I did lotto today and we both lost. It was hard to tell how many people were there for lotto and how many people were just eating at McD's.

They did offer to all the losing entries $27 tickets for balcony seats.

Carderic, who was on as Igor? Was it Brian Shepard?

To stay on topic: my mom and I did the YF lotto last Saturday. It's indeed pretty hard to know who's there for the lotto or who's just chilling at McDonald's. But I guess there were about 25 to 30 people for the lotto. My mom won, so yay...

It's really hard to predict though, altogether I've tried six times and won twice.

How is the view from the front row Lotto seats? Is the stage kindof high and you miss part of the actors/scenery? Thanks!

re: YF Lotto Recently

It's high up and far back, but since that stage is an immense monster, you really won't miss much, just maybe not get a great view of it.

Thanks, carderic. I'd love to see him as Igor sometime, since I thoroughly enjoyed him as Frederick Frankenstein.

I guess JP Walker is first cover and Chris Shepard is second... A friend of mine saw the show on Tuesday and she saw Walker as Frederick Frankenstein and Shepard as Igor.
