I just managed to get centre of stalls row BB for £32.50 for April via todaytix as part of the London theatre week offer. Could have had 2nd row of dress for the same price too! bargain! I never realised you could book that far in advance on todaytix and get discounts

It seems that Madonna is doing the limited setlist on day 2 of doing 2 concerts back to back and the full setlist on day one. A shame for those on day 2 of the concerts . This cutting out a quarter of the setlist with the other song already out shows that she is not fit to do the shows so the only fair thing is to reschedule rather than just doing part of the show. I doubt those seeing the reduced show will be refunded 25% of their ticket price. I have no issue with shows being cancelled , just be consistent do one setlist. If you are not able to do that for all shows cancel the rest. This. People can rationalise their way out of Madonna being totally disrespectful to her ticket buying public as much as they want but this idea of throwing scraps of the full performance to an adoring and accepting public is a disgrace. After being a fan for 25 years I’m actually starting to dislike her. A lot. wow I'm so glad I sold my tickets for Thursday 6th now. I would have been fuming to find out I received an abridged version of the show. I would much prefer her to do the full show and sit or stand rather than attempt dance moves if she's injured. The show has dancers and would be a spectacle regardless of whether or not Madonna completes all the choreography.
I've always wanted to see her perform and was determined I would go this time but the whole tour to this point has put me off ever trying to get tickets again.

This is quite frustrating. So we’re getting a shorter show than the rest of the tour? I was looking forward to it but I’m really over it now. Wish there was a way I could get my money back and just go see something else!

Duck is definitely Skin from skunk anansie as it sounds identical and the clues fit. I dont think unicorn is jake shears although some of the dance moves a reminiscent of him.. Chris Colfer is a good shout. I had a thought that Octopus could be Malandra Burrows, she can sing and she also went in the Jungle and was covered in fish guts as soon as she went in.

I just received the same email from ticketmaster. I think my show is the 3rd in a row before she has a day off, so its unlikely mine will go on as planned. I just wish we knew so I could arrange alternative entertainment as I cant cancel my hotel so I'll still be coming to London

Ill be very surprised if she gets through all the London dates. Its a lot over a short period if she has this injury that keeps flaring up. I go on the 6th Feb

Not majorly bad but at the matinee of West Side Story in Leicester I had this annoyance just to the right of eye line who when anything mildly exciting happened on stage he would lean forward to catch the eye of a person 5 seats the other way to make sure she wasnt missing it, sometimes even calling her name quietly. Just sit next to her if you dont want her to miss anything!!!

I reckoned the pricing structure will be very similar to Mary Poppins. £89.50 for band A is actually a bit cheaper than poppins which is usually £97.50 for weekend perfomances

We had local hairdressers called Crops and Bobbers and I've seen a Chip shop in the Leeds area called Frying Nemo, bet it traumatises kids!!

Hedgehog's speech patterns made me think Tom Allen, or Joe Lycett, but not sure how they fit with the dying clue. Well people have said Jason Manford for the hedgehog and he played Pirelli in sweeney who is dead by 8:30 and isn’t in the show after that

I need to listen to unicorn again as I really didnt get Barroman from it, I was thinking Franke Grande. And I think the Chameleon may be Will Mellor

The worst has to be when we have sufficiently tortured each other and I was also really let down by Evita

As a performer I know it makes a massive difference to how you feel when an audience shows their appreciation this way. I see. You want a feeling-boost that depends on some members of the audience being denied a view of the stage for which they have paid. How selfish you are. well ill spin that back at you, why should the majority of the audience who wish the show their appreciation kow tow to your ridiculous notion that this is rude? maybe its best you don't go to the theatre much or chose the front row of each section to ensure you're never inconvenienced by such behaviour

for me it has to be shows that have really stick in my mind, ones that I wasn't expecting much from but really made a lasting impression or I had an emotional connection to, or were just stunning revivals. (not in any particular order)
My Fair Lady (Sheffield Crucible) Gypsy (Savoy) Follies (National) Assassins (Menier) Bridges of Madison County (Menier) Everybody'd Talking about Jamie (Sheffield Crucible) Standing at the Sky's Edge (Sheffield Crucible) Fun Home (Young Vic) In the Heights (Kings Cross) Side Show (Southwark Playhouse)

Have they removed the aisles for this show, or is it just how the seating plan appears on the website?

Paul seems like one of those people who just want to have something to be grumpy about! personally I don't standing ovate at every show I see, only f I feel its deserved, which for live theatre, when performers have generally been on stage for in excess of 2 hours entertaining you, I think the least they deserve as a performer is a minute or two of me standing up to show my appreciation.
As a performer I know it makes a massive difference to how you feel when an audience shows their appreciation this way.

He’s just stating a fact really isn’t he. If other people don’t like it than that’s there fault. He should be proud that he has gone over and above what was required of him contractually.
Wish he would have been on the cinema release
