Usually they send the link out around an hour or so before the sale goes live.

I really don't think Beverley has the acting chops for this - she's a wonderful vocalist and one of our absolute greatest singers, but even after all this time I don't think she's much of an actress.
Same. I love her as a singer and a performer. She is incredible, and underrated. But as an actress? Well, she can say the lines, but she is a little wooden.

I’ve received the pre-sale link from the sign up, but have any ATG member received anything from ATG?
I never seem to get emails from them so I’m hoping if I log into my account before 10am I’ll be able to access the members presale that way too.

I literally can’t decide whether to book for this or not. It’s probably my favourite musical but I don’t want to trek to London to see some ridiculous reinterpretation that changes it all for no good reason. What to do?  |

I'd say about £150-£160 for premium prices with stalls and dress circle about £80 and maybe a few upper circle seats at the back or restricted view for about £35. Let's see how wrong I am! |

I feel like the most barebones these productions are, the more expensive they get.

It’s probably my favourite musical but I don’t want to trek to London to see some ridiculous reinterpretation that changes it all for no good reason. What to do? Have absolutely nothing to go on - but I'd say to get a singer like Nicole with a score like this, they have to be pulling out the stops in terms of orchestra. So at the very least it will be worth hearing... and its certainly shaping up to be a theater "event" that I doubt you'd regret going if for nothing else being able to say you were there and saw it  I mean its not the dreadful "lets make actors also play the music and pretend we're being artistic and creative." There's a lot banking on this, particularly if it's true that the avalanche of ALW Stuff is to sweep away negativity from Cinderella |

Kind of annoyed by the wording of that presale email. Very patronising “organise your entire morning around this and if you’re good we’ll assign you a random place in our fake queue with all the other tryhard plebs”.
No ta.

Number 744 in the queue.
Doubt I’ll be booking right now once I see the prices anyway…

Longer wait than I expected based on the small number of people in front of me.

There are two rows in the grand circle for £20, the next price band is £37.50 (front row of the grand circle and the very back rows). Back couple of rows of the stalls are £47.50 and then it's £67.50, £87.50, £117, £125, £147 and £175. This is for previews anyway

Couldn't book first night now unfortunately as I'm away the Thursday-Monday with the new first night, but booked row C of the Stalls (currently the front bookable row as row B seems to be on the plan but greyed out so not sure if they'll add a further front row or 2 at a later date) on Tuesday 26th for £87.50.
Row C was a mixture of £87.50 tickets and £137.50 package seats for those interested, row D behind jumped to £175. But a bulk middle section of the stalls were £87.50 for the first few dates at least.

Booked for side of the dress circle as wanted to use an old ATG voucher. Only had 35p to pay for my 2 tickets! Result!

I've done pretty much the same FJ - central row C of the stalls had less package tickets on Thurs 28th Sept so went for that (£87.50, but it's a De Mille Experience package seat for other dates), will keep an eye out to see if an additional row is added. And got a £37.50 centre front row of the Grand Circle for the closing night in January for a different perspective and the 'last night' experience.
As raiseitup has posted there's a good range of prices - less premium seats for mid-week dates and a top price of £195 from what I could see in my 8 minutes to look, decide and checkout!

Top price seats are currently £195, lowest are £20. My view is that the pricing on this is very fair and spread across a broad range. Good luck everybody, plenty of tickets held back so if you don't get what you want today, try again tomorrow when the rest go on sale. Of course, depending on demand, prices could go up if they sell well. I wouldn't be surprised to see the top price tickets head towards £225/£250 territory if popular.
