Wanna be on the block where it happens? Just stop by the Richard Rodgers Theatre (46th Street, between Broadway and 8th Ave.) to join the party that has been going all summer at Hamilton. For every performance of Lin-Manuel Miranda's hit show, fans flock for a chance to win $10 front row seats in the #Ham4Ham lottery.
Beginning two and half hours prior to each performance, patrons need only enter their name for a chance to buy up to two front row tickets for $10 each. The winner's names will be drawn 2 hours before show time. Entrants must present photo ID, and the winners must pay with cash at the box office.
As if that wasn't awesome enough, since previews began, the cast has been entertaining the lottery participants while they wait, with new #Ham4Ham performances daily. From role swaps, to visits from other Broadway special guests, the lottery has proved to be the coolest stop for any theatre fan. Below, check out a video roundup of just some of the recent #Ham4Hams!

'It Was a Dark and Stormy Night on Broadway...' Readers Share Audience Horror Stories!

Whatever happened to theatre etiquette? It's a question that many theatre-goers have been asking themselves in recent months, as stories of carelessness, rudeness, and just plain craziness have made their way to the internet.
For years now, cell phones have been a culprit of many mid-show disturbances, and it seems that the trend isn't fading away anytime soon. Earlier this spring, HAMILTON's Lin-Manuel Miranda banned Madonna from coming backstage after she spent most of of the show on her phone. This summer, a patron stormed HAND TO GOD's stage on Broadway in search of an outlet to charge his phone, while a week later, the legendary Patti LuPone snatched a theatre-goer's phone mid-performance of SHOWS FOR DAYS Off-Broadway.
The recklessness continues. Earlier this week during a performance of THE FIX at D.C.'s Signature Theatre, a woman stormed the stage yet again... this time in search of a restroom. She reportedly used the backstage bathroom before being promptly escorted to the lobby by house staff.
With this kind of audience misbehavior seemingly taking over the world, we thought it fitting to ask our readers about some of their own Audience Horror Stories. Check out the list below and brace yourself...it's about to get scary.
