Does anyone know how many people win the lottery for each performance?   Decent shot at getting tickets or is it a mystery since it's being done electronically?

It's pretty much a mystery since it's done electronically. But I have entered several times and won twice, so I'd say you have a better shot at winning that lottery than the one for Fun Home, which I have entered many more times than OTT and have never won.

even if you don't win the lottery,m there are usually tons of cheap seats available. The day I went the Balcony was 3/4 empty and I got my tickets about 30 minutes to curtain.

Does Today Tix charge the $10 fee on their lottery shows or is it just the actual price of the lottery ticket? Thanks!

^ They did not charge me a service fee when I won the On The Town Lottery.  I assume that is the case for all their lotteries.  It's just the stated lottery ticket cost. I'm sure they get paid by the show for conducting the lottery on the show's behalf.

Does anyone know how rush has been lately? I know you can enter on TodayTix for the last week, but I entered for the Wednesday matinee and didn't win. So I'm assuming I should suck it up and buy a ticket because it's unlikely I'll win getting closer to the weekend?
