MEAN GIRLS Announces Special Rush for Pink Wednesdays

To commemorate The Plastics' favorite day of the week, customers who wear pink on Wednesdays can score a special, limited time only ticket offer for the Broadway premiere of Mean Girls. Previews begin Monday, March 12 and opening night is Sunday, April 8 at New York's August Wilson Theatre (245 West 52nd Street).

Here's how to make sure you're sitting at the right table:

Pink Wednesdays Rush Tickets:

On Wednesdays beginning next Wednesday, March 14, a limited number of $42.50 general rush tickets will be available only to customers wearing pink at the August Wilson Theatre and can be purchased with cash or credit card when the box office opens at 10:00am, Monday-Saturday. In order to be eligible, you must be wearing a visible item of pink clothing! Tickets are limited to two per customer, and are non-transferable and subject to availability; seat locations will vary, and some may be partial view. The rush policy is exclusive to Wednesday performances for a limited time only.

Pre-Show Lottery (In-Person):

As previously announced, a limited number of $42.50 same-day tickets will be made available prior to each performance of Mean Girls via a pre-show, in-person lottery. For Wednesday performances - yes, we're totally going there - Pre-Show Lottery participants who wear a visible item of pink clothing will receive a pink lotto slip and the first pink slip drawn will receive a free pair of tickets to that performance.

Entries for the Pre-Show Lottery will be accepted beginning two and a half hours before curtain time, and winners will be selected two hours prior to each performance. Lottery winners must be present at the time of the drawing with valid identification to purchase tickets, using cash or credit card. Pre-Show Lottery tickets are limited to one entry per person and two tickets per winner. Seat locations and number of tickets awarded by the Pre-Show Lottery are subject to availability.
