NEW YORK (Playbill) – The upcoming Disney musical Tarzan, which is set to begin performances March 24 at the Richard Rodgers Theatre, will offer a limited number of $20 lottery tickets to each performance. Those interested in trying to obtain these tickets will be asked to fill out a lottery form two-and-a-half hours prior to that particular Tarzan performance. Winners for the seats, which are located in the first row of the orchestra, will be chosen two hours before curtain time. There will be a limit of two tickets per person, and tickets must be purchased using cash only. About the lottery system, Disney Theatricals President Thomas Schumacher said in a statement, "As someone who grew up wanting to see as much live theatre as I could, it is such a pleasure to be able to make these reduced price tickets available for Tarzan. The $20 Lottery Ticket Program will allow us to share this theatrical experience with audience members who may not otherwise be able to see Tarzan, and that is invaluable to me.” Tarzan will officially open at the Richard Rodgers Theatre on May 10.
If audiences can't get into the Disney Tarzan show on Broadway, they can always catch another Tarzan show, Tarzan Rocks, at Disney's Animal Kingdom in Orlando, Fl.
What's that? Oh, it is? Uh, never mind. That amazing show is closed, soon to be replaced by...???? Why shutter a show that has its namesake making a Broadway debut? Are theyhonestly worried about brand confusion, or do the theme parks even call the theatre folks, even on Christmas?
