Broadway in Atlanta announced via press release that it will offer a couple of exclusive deals for Shrek The Musical, playing at the fabulous Fox Theatre on April 6th and 7th.
For those feeling lucky, try your hand at the ticket lottery taking place on Lucky Seat. The lottery opens at noon on Friday, March 29th at luckyseat.com.
Those who win the lottery will have an opportunity to purchase tickets for just $36 each. (Premium seats for this show are as high as $140, after fees are added.)
How does the ticket lottery work?
The Lucky Seat ticket lottery for Shrek The Musical will open at noon on Friday, March 29th and will close on Thursday, April 3rd at 9:30 a.m.
You’ll need to create a Lucky Seat account if you don’t already have one.
If you win the lottery, you’ll receive an email from Lucky Seat. Notifications will start going out at 10 a.m. on April 3rd and will continue until the allocated tickets have been claimed.
NOTE that you have a very limited window in which to claim and purchase your tickets.
With Hamilton, that window was just two hours — so plan on checking email compulsively on April 3rd.
Winners can purchase up to four tickets at the discounted rate.
Then, on show day, you’ll be able to pick up your tickets at the Fox box office, with a photo ID, starting two hours before show time. Your ID must match the name on your lottery entry.
In our experience, the Lucky Seat tickets are excellent seats — we saw Hamilton from the front row, as lottery winners. However, Broadway in Atlanta always runs a disclaimer that the lottery seats may be an obstructed view.
Get Student Rush tickets for $35
In addition to lottery tickets, Broadway in Atlanta will offer special $35 Student Rush Tickets for Shrek The Musical.
College students simply need to bring a valid student ID with them to the Fox Theatre box office two hours before each performance (see the showtimes below).
The Student Rush Ticket price will be valid for all three Shrek performances, with a two-ticket limit per student ID.
Student Rush Tickets are subject to availability and will be sold from best available, which may include limited view locations.
Performance schedule:
Saturday, April 6th at 7 p.m.
Sunday, April 7th at 1 p.m.
Sunday, April 7th at 5:30 p.m.
