That was pretty painless. In the queue waiting before 12. Was given 887 in the queue and got in at 12.38.
Wasn’t able to get my first choice of seats which is front row of dress circle face on, but snagged the first 2 seats on the side so I’m happy.
Looking forward to it.

Got mine too - had to juggle a bit to get the seats I wanted but landed some good side dress circle seats. Am already booked in twice for this show at regular prices, but have a hunch that it will be a good 'un and people 'in the know' have fed back positive vibes.

Finally got through, it said on the holding page £10 seats are sold out but still seem to be a few, though not on dates that work for me. Might go for a pillar seat later in the run!

It’s all coup de chance with these Queues - for Christmas Carol I learned a bit late, got in and was 107, today I was at the webpage super early and had landed only in the second thousand. Bit stressful and also a two ticket limit applied but I eventually got x3 Dress circle side (never sat there, hope it’s fine) for the very first preview (and the only date I could have made anyway) with a little help from my friends  |

New seats released - anybody booked for rows E or F who thought they were at the front might want to switch...

More random ticketing weirdness from the Old Vic, who have now released Row A for sale for this show.
Good way to alienate existing ticket holders who might like to have been further forward.

Its ok, they were only £85 when I looked 😩
…so they not only think its ok to screw their members over but have deigned that the view from the front row is worth £85!!! (It isn’t).

I’ll be sticking with my £22 Q35 stalls seat I think after seeing those front row prices.

I’ve just booked front row for next week (so still in previews) and it was £60 - guess the £85 is for a Sat later in the run?
Have had the issue in the past with the OV though where I’ve booked what was front row then seen additional rows added - but found the Box Office were very helpful and happy to switch my booking for me.

Does this have a life planned after the Old Vic?

Fairly sure the future life was planned before the Old Vic!

Not sure, once I've seen it on Friday I'll probably have more of an idea!

Being totally fair to them, it's quite standard practice that once a show finishes tech and begins dress rehearsals, it becomes apparent whether the rows you've blocked off can be added back in or not.
I know it's rubbish, but it's just how it goes sometimes I'm afraid.

I'm surprised this has a life planned after the old vic run, it doesn't seem an obvious show to have wider long life appeal (unless it gets 5 star rave reviews of course)

It is rubbish. They are one of the only theatres that block photographs on Seatplan, so you can’t even see what you’re getting beforehand. Theres no view from seat on their website, so you just have to believe that the views in their ‘old as the hills full of pillars’ theatre are acceptable, especially for a brand new totally unknown in form or story musical.
