Well, “Hello!”: $25 “Book of Mormon” tickets available in DCPA lottery

Twelve years after Denver’s Buell Theatre hosted the first national tour of “The Book of Mormon,” the irreverent musical comedy is back where it all began, and a limited number of lucky fans have the chance to snag tickets for $25 each.

The nine-time Tony-winning production — created by “South Park” creators and now Casa Bonita co-owners Matt Stone and Trey Parker with “Avenue Q” creator Robert Lopez — has announced a ticket lottery system for their upcoming Denver run, which plays the Buell June 21-July 2.

The limited number of lottery tickets will give fans a chance to see the show at a discount, as all 16 performances are nearly sold out. Available tickets range from $35 to $155.

Audience hopefuls will have to make a Lucky Seat account to enter for two rounds of lotteries. The first set of entries, for performances running June 21-25, must be received by 10:30 a.m. on June 16. The second, for performances June 27-July 2, must be received by 10:30 a.m. on June 23.

Winners will be notified by email at around 11 a.m. for each deadline, when they will have a limited window to purchase up to two tickets. A valid photo ID matching the name listed on the winning Lucky Seat account will be required for ticket pick-up.
