Cheap seats, mapped
Oh, Mary! rush, lottery & cheap tickets
Every legitimate cheap-seat tactic for Oh, Mary! on Broadway — with prices and the small print. No paywalled "premium tier" nonsense; just the public-facing routes ranked.
Oh, Mary! is a 80-minute play at the 922-seat Lyceum Theatre, with no intermission. It opened in 2024 and is in its open run. Multiple cheap-seat routes are in play: an official lottery, an in-person rush, and TKTS booth eligibility.
$47 Telecharge Rush (Rush.Telecharge.com) lottery
2 tickets per winner
- Platform
- Telecharge Rush (Rush.Telecharge.com)
- Price
- $47 per ticket
- Entry window
- Opens 12:00 AM the day before the performance, per the official show site; closes 3 PM ET the same day, per Telecharge's lottery rules — the show page publishes an open time but no close time. (Telecharge's general rules describe a wider "one or two days before" opening; the show's own page is the show-specific source for this show.)
- Draw / notification
- Winners drawn at 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM, per the official show site. Telecharge's general lottery rules publish no drawing times — this is sourced to the show's own page, not to the rules. Winners must claim within six hours of notification.
- Quantity limit
- Up to 2 per winner
The $47 lottery is the no-queue route; the $43 in-person rush at the box office costs less. Telecharge allows only ONE entry per person per performance, no matter how many drawings that performance has — entering twice is treated as abuse and can disqualify you from every Telecharge lottery. Enter once for each performance you could attend; cumulative odds across many days are what improve your chances.

- Enter the lottery — no queue and zero effort, though it is not the cheapest route on this page. 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 Oh, Mary! page — sometimes resale dips below face for less-popular performances.
