Come From Away Announces Digital Lottery

Come From Away has announced the launch of a digital lottery starting today, Tuesday, May 28, at 12:01am EST, making a limited number of $49 tickets available.

The lottery will be available for Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday performances. It will open on the day of the performance from midnight to 2pm for evening performances and midnight to 9am for matinee performances. Winners will be notified by email shortly after each drawing and have two hours to claim and pay for tickets online or over the phone. Tickets can be picked up 30 minutes before showtime at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre. Photo ID is required for pickup, and seat locations and number of tickets awarded by the lottery are subject to availability. One entry is allowed per person, with a maximum of two tickets per entry.

In addition to the digital lottery, a limited number of $38 general rush tickets (including a $2 facility fee) will be available at the theater's box office when it opens for that day's performance or performances. Only two tickets are allowed per person, with tickets subject to availability. Cash and major credit cards are accepted.

Featuring a book, music, and lyrics by Irene Sankoff and David Hein, Come From Away is directed by Tony winner Christopher Ashley and choreographed by Kelly Devine. Set against the backdrop of the tragic events of September 11, 2001, the show follows what happens when 38 planes and 6,579 passengers are forced to land in Gander, doubling the population of "one small town on the edge of the world."

Come From Away stars Petrina Bromley, Geno Carr, Jenn Colella, Alex Finke, De'Lon Grant, Joel Hatch, Chad Kimball, Caesar Samayoa, Q. Smith, Astrid Van Wieren, Jim Walton, Sharon Wheatley, Josh Breckenridge, John Jellison, Tamika Lawrence, Tony LePage, Happy McPartlin, and Julie Reiber.
