Tarzan Replaces Lottery with Student Rush Program

Cool.

NEW YORK (Playbill) – Disney Theatrical Productions has decided to cancel its previously announced lottery ticket program for Broadway's Tarzan in favor of a Student Rush Program, which will begin April 6. Student Rush tickets, priced at $20, will be available two hours prior to each performance of Tarzan at the Richard Rodgers Theatre. A student ID (any student up to and including the undergraduate level is eligible) is required, and there will be a limit of two tickets per person. Tickets will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis. About the new policy, Disney's Thomas Schumacher said in a statement, "After witnessing the success of the Lottery Program these past two weeks, I realized that I want to make affordable tickets to Tarzan available to as many students as possible. 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 to students for Tarzan." Tarzan will officially open at the Richard Rodgers Theatre, 226 West 46th Street, on May 10.
