Has anyone had a sneak peak of the pricing for this, or better still the seating plan?

When is the first booking period? How long is it going to?

I've just had my link come through for tomorrow. E mail says 100,000 have pre registered so it's going to be a fun morning

Just seen a post elsewhere with a seating plan along with a disclaimer that due to the nature of the production, seats cannot be allocated during presale

Will you be given a section? Seems kind of crazy that you won't be able to choose where you'd like to sit, especially if you have special requirements with stairs, etc. |

Pot luck as to whether you're seats are any good and value-for-money. After that announcement, I think I'll give the pre-sale a miss and book later or even after reports of first previews are out, or maybe not at all. |

This is all a bit weird because...there's definitely a seating plan

I've seen the screenshots that were shared... surely it can't be true that there won't be Saturday matinees?

I’ve not seen these screenshots, but when I click on the pre-sale link, the performance schedule for June flashes up briefly - and there are Saturday matinees shown each week, except for 8 June (which is the day it opens). I would post a screenshot here, but I can’t work out how! |

I can't upload the screenshots either, but it says:
Performances will be on:
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday & Saturday at 7:30pm
Weekday Matinee Thursday at 2:30pm
Sunday at 1:00pm and 5:30pm
Saturday Performances between 20th July and 31st August will be at 1:00pm and 5:30pm
It says nothing about "regular" Saturday matinees, so I wonder if they axed that in favour of the Sunday matinee. I did see the other screenshot too that showed two Saturday performances in June, so here's hoping that they just forgot to mention it. I had very much relied on meeting a friend for a Saturday matinee in early July.

Producers taking the proverbial again, exploiting the excitement of people wanting to book early. Be the first to stump up the cash and as a reward get put in a seat theyve chosen for you. Disgusting. |

If I cannot choose my seat - I will not be buying.

Well, I'm somehow in on one device. They seem to have exactly the same seats (under half) available for every show. Nothing in the front row yet.
Looking at the prices, I'll hold back from buying for now.

Do people think the best place to sit in the circle part or in the second section divided in half?

Hmm - I am going to hold off booking for now. Very expensive and I have no idea what the value of each seat will be re: views/ experience

Good to see that seat choices were available, even if it was only half of them. I went for those row E aisle seats at £95 on the mid-platform. For anyone after a bargain, those row S pairs, near the back, at £29.50 look worth a shout.
All dates/times seem to have the same pricing.

I took a punt on Row G of the Platform seats at £75.
For those who haven't arrived at the booking page, on the plan, the inner circle is called the "First Class Carriage," the "Platform Seats" I booked are behind those, and the Locomotive seats are behind those again. On the sides are the "Track Side" seats.

Row E on the aisle is obviously where it's at! |
