Jeff Orosz from London, Ontario, got a lucky phone call on New Years Day from Drayton Entertainment’s Artistic Director Alex Mustakas. He could barely believe it when he heard that he had won December’s Grand Prize Jackpot, taking home $16,705. His winning ticket was number #99476965089.
The Orosz family have been attending Drayton Entertainment productions for over 25 years.
Orosz remembers going to Drayton Festival Theatre when it first opened. He often takes his family to see the pantos, buying tickets early to ensure the kids get to sit in the front and be part of the action on stage.
The performances he remembers the most are Miracle Worker and Les Miserables at the St. Jacobs Country Playhouse, a stage his family visits often.
Jeff recently retired from Canada Post and, although he has no immediate plans for what he will do with the windfall, he intends to save for the future.
Like many patrons, Orosz is intrigued by Drayton Entertainment's new, multi-month online raffle that is currently running until March 31"I've already got my tickets for the new 60/40 draw", says Orosz, "it's longer with two more early bird prizes so I'm going to buy a couple more times and spread out my chances of winning again!."
