I expect you'll have to wait till the Orange Tree's Twelfth Night in December 2024 for that. However, there is a new regime at the RSC so there is hope ... I wonder how different Littler's version will be compared to his Oxford production when he was a student... Polly Findlay's AYLI at the National had similarities to her student version at the Oxford Playhouse He has directed it since then at Guildford. www.guildford-shakespeare-company.co.uk/twelfth-night-14/ |

So we've got Branagh with his inexperienced cast and breakneck speed, Fiennes and Varma in a warehouse for some reason, the Globe and RSC with consistently underwhelming casts and average productions, and now we've got to listen to Tennant through headphones. Hoping the Almeida's forthcoming Lear and NT's Coriolanus will just aim for boring old good acting and directing in gimmick-free productions. When is Coriolanus due at the NT? It was announced for the Oliver in 2024. Currently Nye is scheduled to end 11 May, so perhaps late May unless something else comes in first. |

Briefly saw 6 tickets in the seat plan just now for the week ahead booking - but by the time I'd clicked on one and hit continue they'd all vanished.... Some people obviously have fast fingers!

I was wondering about this! I tried getting online this morning right before 10am, and didn’t see anything, even after 5 min. Is there some special Donmar daily website? Or is it the regular website with the calendar to book tickets, and tix just went so fast?

I wonder at what time they normally release the £15 standing tickets and the Donmar Daily tickets as they say will be available 7 days before performances. 8 am? Or is it a random time.

It's been 10am for Donmar Daily, and I believe it says midday for standing (so...noon?). I tried again this morning, refreshing as soon as it turned 10, but saw 2 tickets disappear within a second! I live in the US so I'm just trying to get an idea of the system before I go in a few weeks. |

Donmar are always a bit prompt - the booking will open just before 10.

I wish they’d just put a show like this that is obviously going to sell out immediately straight into a bigger theatre. I’d like to see it but can’t be bothered with the hassle of trying to get a ticket.

I'm hoping it transfers, when I might stand a better chance... |

Moving it to a different theatre kind of defeats the purpose. |
