HAKUKNA MATTA!! We know it’s still rough with getting back into the swing of things after these pat 18 1/2 months plus wanting to see a Broadway show. However, there are unforgettable ways on discounted tickets to see some of Broadway’s best including the popular RUSH POLICIES. We got more information with some of the latest shows that just reopened.
Disney’s legendary Award winning smash hit
The Lion King most recently ROOOOOARED its way back to the Great Bright Way. If you want to experience the breathtaking setting of the Pride Lands and this spectacular production LIVE, they are continuing with their popular DIGITAL LOTTERY RUSH for $30 tickets.
The digital lottery is done through Broadway Direct. It will open the day before the scheduled performance you plan to attend at 9:00AM and will close at 8:00PM. For those who are lucky to get selected to see the show the very next day, the winners will have only 60 minutes to reclaim their tickets. You are limited to one entry per person & two tickets per winner. The actual Tickets itself will be delivered via email the day of the performance Seat locations and number of tickets awarded by the lottery are subject to availability and most likely partial view. No matter what, every seat is the best seat especially there’s so much that happens throughout the Theater including that iconic opening number of CIRCLE OF LIFE.
Disney’s THE LION KING is playing once again to sold out crowds every night at the Minskoff Theatre along with productions around the world.
