Back by popular demand, THE BOOK OF MORMON, which played a record breaking one-week run in 2015, is pleased to announce a lottery ticket policy for the National Tour, which begins January 17, 2017 at The Times-Union Center in Jacksonville and plays a limited one-week engagement through January 22 2017. In Jacksonville, the production will conduct a pre-show lottery at the box office, making a limited number of tickets available at $25 apiece.
The wildly popular lottery for the Broadway production has attracted as many as 800 entries at some performances. The producers of THE BOOK OF MORMON are pleased to offer low-priced lottery seats for every city on the National Tour.
Entries will be accepted at the box office beginning two and a half hours prior to each performance; each person will print their name and the number of tickets (1 or 2) they wish to purchase on a card that is provided. Two hours before curtain, names will be drawn at random for a limited number of tickets priced at $25 each. Only one entry is allowed per person. Cards are checked for duplication prior to drawing. Winners must be present at the time of the drawing and show valid ID to purchase tickets. Limit one entry per person and two tickets per winner. Tickets are subject to availability.
