I logged out and logged in again and managed to book. I'm an ATG member and had also registered for the non-members' presale, but didn't get emails about either.

I'm an ATG member and did get an email reminder at 9.30 I got three emails last week about Plaza Suite but none at all about Enemy of the People. I've got the ATG email addresses in my contacts and also checked spam and trash. Not sure what's going wrong, but will phone them later and see if they can help. |

I got precisely 26 minutes' notice of this pre-sale as an ATG+ member, at least I would have done had I checked my email. Thanks ATG!
Happily, there were still some central row B seats in the stalls a couple of hours later for £95 so I grabbed them.
Interestingly, they are now saving some seats exclusively for members, but the email does not say where or in which price band.

Received my non-ATG pre-sale link and was just thinking that the prices looked a little steep when I somehow managed to find a near-front stalls seat for £40. Can only assume they set up the seat plan for that date wrong - or that Matt Smith's got a holiday that day! But for the price I've taken a punt.

I got an email saying to book today from 8.30am… at 11am. Great work ATG
I wasn’t interested anyway- and certainly not at the prices they are charging.
It’s rather alarming that good seats selling for £150 is now considered the norm. Outrageous.

It’s a huge pity really - this sounds fabulous and Matt Smith will be great but there’s no way I’m forking out £150 to sit in the Duke of York’s. Some tickets £180… it’s mad

The pricing for this is just too depressing for words.
I don't have any particular interest in this show but it signifies that things are just going to get worse and worse in the WE.
It's not good when the Upper Circle is £65, and the back stalls are £95. And keeping most of the stalls off sale to inflate them even higher down the line is just so cynical.
I think I am finally being priced out of going that much now. I just can't really afford to spend £100 for a not particularly good seat.
And please no-one come back and say it's show*business*. It just sucks.

Got two seats in the Upper Circle for £30 each -- sat in the same seats for The Pillowman and they're more than fine. Quite looking forward to this.

Just looked through at the sales for this and am surprised by how little it has sold, even the starting range tickets. Enough word might not have gone around, but still, given the very limited run in a small theatre, with a director whose reputation more than enough theatre-going people will know about, and Matt Smith leading. Sometimes I wonder what keeps Matt Smith from feeling like the big star that he should be. He's been wildly admired (and very deservedly) for performances in three massively popular shows, and with a broad range of appeal.

Some tickets £180… it’s mad Just saying the seats at the ends of rows C & D are £65 and good value in my opinion. They are marked as restricted but you miss very little, and very close. I sat there for Vanya and lost sight of Andrew Scott maybe twice in the whole thing for mere seconds only. |

As far as I can see the £40 seats have been added to the system for dates up to and including 7th March so far. The tweet did say all performances would have these seats so they will surely add the deal to the remaining dates soon.
I have to say, I'd be very miffed if I'd already paid £175 or whatever, but it is a great deal.

Yeah, had been uhmming and aahhing about this but couldn't resist Same! £40 front row too good an opportunity. No idea re understudy dates if any, but it’s a very short run. Hoping to finally catch Smith on the stage. |

How annoying. The performance I had already booked for doesn't seem to have any £40 seats left so I can't even call up ATG and ask them to move me to better seats

I thought it was ridiculously priced when it went on sale, but I couldn't resist £40 for Row F in the Central Stalls.

Do we think there will be a lottery/rush? The 40 quid tickets are enticing but with fees on top they’re still steep

Hurray - got a pair! Thought some seats might discount later but didn't think to this extent. Wonderful stuff  |

It is a bit odd that they've said every performance has £40 seats but that's not the case!

£40 tickets now available for the rest of the run. Just got a row F stalls seat myself. Excellent value. I’m just glad I held off on a ticket when the show got announced. Saved myself a lot of money.

We had bought seats at a higher price band in worse locations before these £40 seats popped up. Just tried to exchange our tickets for better seats on the £40 price band (willing to eat the money so not looking to get a refund on the price difference), but they've said that's not something they can do. This kind of thing really puts me off buying in advance! Should have known better and waited for a deal to inevitably pop up  |

Like others, I originally wasn't going to go to this, partly cost, partly just not not in London much when it's on, but at 40 quid hard to resist....
