- Enter the lottery first. Lowest price, zero effort. Set a daily reminder; the entry windows are unforgiving.
- Line up early for rush.
- TKTS is the fallback. Same-day, in-person — check today's list for which booth has it and each booth's hours.

- If all else fails, compare the resale market on the main Maybe Happy Ending page — sometimes resale dips below face for less-popular performances.
