What are the cheapest ways to see Broadway shows?

The three main ways to get cheap Broadway tickets are: (1) Digital lotteries ($10-60, enter online for a chance to win), (2) Rush tickets ($30-50, first-come first-served at the box office or via apps), and (3) Standing room ($35-50, standing-only when shows sell out).

How do Broadway lotteries work?

Broadway lotteries are free digital drawings. Enter through apps like TodayTix or the show's website. Winners are randomly selected and can buy discounted tickets (usually $10-50 for orchestra seats).
