Planning a trip to the city next month, and wanted to know if anyone has entered and won this and knew how easy/difficult the odds of winning are? Apologies if this has already been discussed in a previous thread.

I only know one of my friends who have won this lottery. Seat was in the extreme sides but still a great view for the price! I'd say this is one of the harder lotteries to win compared to the other musicals out there.

Bumping this thread to ask if the lottery or SRO is the best way to get tickets. Or is there some other discount I'm not thinking of? It seems doubtful as the show is selling pretty well.

According to Christy a while back, Anastasia has a rush now. I just asked her if that was true or not

I just won the lottery for tonight, seats are extreme side, row C. Hopefully they'll be ok.

How did you find where your seats were?

Had a problem when I tried to claim tickets online. Got the message that no tickets were available, after I've put in my credit card info and clicked on purchase. Message included the number for telecharge, so I called. They said it went through, gave me a confirmation number and the seat numbers.

I did SRO last Wednesday matinee and thought it was a great view for the price. The mezzanine overhang doesn't really obstruct at all since because of the way the show is designed/staged; the only time something was cut off was Ramin's head in the box seat during the opera scene. And for $35, it's a couple of dollars cheaper than the lottery.

Seems like this is a difficult lottery to win.  I've been entering almost every day for several months without any luck.  Are other people having the same experience?

I haven't won the lottery either, despite having entered almost every day. Has anyone had luck with this lottery?

Bumping this thread. I've been entering many, many times to try to win this lottery, but have had no luck. I was wondering if anyone has actually won the lottwry, or if SRO is available for this show?

I've entered the Anastasia lottery almost every single day since the show started and haven't won. After many many months of persistence, I've won the lottery for pretty much every other popular show (except Hamilton, since I never really tried).
