Producers of Ghost The Musical will make all 24 lottery tickets in the first and second rows of the orchestra available free of charge to fans for the Aug. 18 final performance at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre.
The lottery for the 8 PM final performance will open at 5:30 PM, with a drawing to begin at 6 PM. There is a limit of one entry per person, and two tickets per winner. Valid ID is required to claim tickets.
they should also offer $20 seats for the mezz. would be nice if the show went out with a packed house.
A Chorus Line played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013.
Agreed. The performance has been selling very slowly the last few weeks. I was wandering myself if it would be best to lotto and then try for other tickets at the Box Office
Is this going to be crazy? Hoping to go to the 8pm show and hopefully win the lotto. 2 people will be entering, how many people do you think will show up??

It's hard to predict how many people will be there... It's the closing show and it's been crazy for the past couple of weeks. Now add in the free factor so my guess is anywhere from 200-300
Since this is free my guess is that the lottery is gonna be insane. If you're not lucky with the lotto then just buy discounted tickets.

What an emotional day it's going to be for all of us... I'm imagining a scene similar to the final "Rent" lotto. People singing, holding each other, and crying tears of joy when they win.
Then sitting outside on the sidewalk sobbing after it's all over.
