What would you say the chances of getting a discounted ticket from the Dominion itself would be? We are going to London on 7th (for the Proms) and will be really short of time to book into our hotel, then go to TKTS, and then the Dominion. Our hotel is near Euston Station, so walkable. Try the TodayTix app. I've had great seats at a great price on the day through the app for this show. and don't forget promo code FQWDM for a bonus tenner off

Booked in for May 2018, so excited. Return direct flights for under £350, I just couldn't say no. My prediction is that Frozen will come over to the UK in 2019/20, and replace Aladdin at the Prince Edward which will close and go on tour. Probably wrong

I can't speak for the other 7,000 or so people who see Dreamgirls each week, but I know I'd rather see a healthy alternate than a poorly Amber with no voice.

I think she was also in the movie... my first Elphaba, loved her! 💚 Indeed she was, one of the hens. She was my first too!

I know there's a few NDJ fans on here...according to her Instagram page it looks like she's now Resident Director on the Mamma Mia Tour. She understudied Sophie earlier in her career, and I think it's great that she's back working in the theatre, even if not performing. http://instagram.com/p/BXuiV1eh4Q7

Turn it off Burly...like a light switch Don't you want me to tell you why I despise it first? I really do, but will I regret starting you off? 😂

^ Our Burly detests Mormon with a passion, so maybe not the best example to use to persuade him!! No need to persuade me, I think me and showtoones agree. I do despise BOM though Turn it off Burly...like a light switch

Hi. I'm really sorry if this has been asked before but are there 'Day seats' available for Les Mis. If so are these limited? Thank you No day seats unfortunately. Standing places £12.50, or TKTS if you're lucky.

Agreed. That said, I do find it plausible that individual cast members could do just Zurich. For example (and I know this won't happen!) if they signed up Rachel to open the tour, but only for the Zurich stint. But yeah, no way it'll be a whole new company. And welcome to the Board deej4life...we don't need to ask who your favourite Elphaba is

Any idea on when they will be extending the booking period? Wanting to book for December. It usually happens every couple of months - I get the DMT+ presale so I'll post here when that opens up for December, to give a few days notice.

How much time is between the Asian/International tour ending and the Zurich engagement? Could that cast still be doing Zurich? The International Tour ended on July 2, and the Zurich engagement starts November 14.

Somebody I know who is in the ensemble is doing both Zurich and the UK tour, so I assumed that would be the same for the entire company.
Agreed it makes no sense to rehearse a whole separate cast for the short engagement in Zurich, but who knows.

It would be great if the Ambassador Theatre got freed, however surprised that ATG sold it, given it is the theatre that defined their name. Fun fact, the name actually came from The Ambassadors complex in Woking, consisting of the New Victoria and Rhoda McGaw theatres and the cinema. The Ambassador Theatre in the West End came later in 1995, after the Duke of York's in 1992. Source: Wikipedia 😎

Yeah it was a press night for Marisha. I gather they're going to be doing more promotion around her as alternate.

You'd have thought they would announce Elphaba and Glinda at the same time - they will have been cast by now so why just do Fieyro?! I know they're on the back foot today but silly to just do one! Amy Ross as Elphaba Helen Woolf as Glinda Jessamy Stoddard as Standby Elphaba What happened to Suzie?!

I've only seen Madalena Alberto and Emma Hatton, and much preferred the former. Would've loved to see Louise Dearman had I gotten into theatre a couple of years earlier!

Marisha is on tonight and there's some sort of press night going on. The screen in the foyer as you go down the stairs is also now playing a video, of both Marisha and Karen singing AIATYING (not at the same time) Interesting. New trailer coming? There's the trailer on in the foyer - whether that ends up being released online I'm not sure!

I'd be interested to see it as the original film was funny. I'm ATG card holder so will hopefully get a decent discount at Alex Birmingham - if production goes ahead. There's currently 50% off Premium & Band A for the opening night, and £5 off Tuesday-Thursday.

Why are they stating the date in the US format, if this is about the UK show? Surely, for a UK audience (and if the tweet was being written by the UK production team), they would use 11/08/2017? That's the thing that's throwing me - a UK specific announcement, made by the UK crew, wouldn't have the date listed that way. Very odd! I think it's a US announcement if I'm not mistaken?

Does anyone know who is producing this? I see Dreamworks Theatricals but there's no sign of them on the web as such, not unless they just operate under Dreamworks animation. Anyone know who the UK tour producer/operator is? Thanks! It's Playful Productions
