People who want to see the nearly sold-out “Book of Mormon” musical in Jacksonville can enter a lottery before each performance for a shot at low-priced seats. Producers of the touring company are announcing the lottery will be available before performances starting tonight and running through Sunday.
"Book of Mormon" is appearing at the Times-Union Center downtown. Lotteries begin 2-and-a-half hours before each performance in the lobby. Winners selected at random will be able to buy up to two tickets for $25 apiece.
Regular tickets to the show start at about $37 and go up above $130, and very few remain available.
Similar lotteries in other cities have attracted as many as 800 entries at a single performance.
