Not always very high value in terms of ticket yield or donations

"The Donmar taking back its lease from the Ambassador Theatre Group in 2017 It’s quite a big moment for us. We have our own box office for the first time. We have control of the products that are served, how it looks, the pricing, all in a way that we’ve never had before." I propose that they serve cheeseboards.

The Donmar bought their lease from ATG during the Grandage years , it'll be the first time in its history that they own the building outright rather than pay rent to ATG

The internet booking went weird for me and the gal on the phone at the development office sounded v pleased to be getting control of the booking.

I had a similar problem and the development office rep said "thankfully the next booking period won't be with ATG so we won't have these problems"
The cynic in me thought they might have a whole new set...

Heck of a cast announced for Ui: Michael Pennington, Tom Edden, and Giles Terera, Philip Cumbus, Lucy Eaton, Lucy Ellinson, Simon Holland Roberts, Louis Martin, Justine Mitchell, Gloria Obianyo and Guy Rhys. Glad I have a ticket. You've still got to put up with Lenny Henry though. Every silver lining has a cloud . . .

Hey, I've enjoyed what I've seen of Lenny Henry on stage. Helluva rest of the cast though, I'm glad I booked now. I wasn't going to bother initially, but apparently I know what's best for myself.

Is there any chance of them doing a NT Live for Ui? Kind of intrigued to see some more Brecht now after the Threepenny Opera last summer!

I think Ryan and I were kidding around, Baemax and herculesmulligan. Don't worry, he was the main reason I was curious to see it . The rest of the cast are a real bonus, though. Speak for yourself TM! I think he's dreadful! :-)
