I went there 2 hours before today's performance and I got E15 as a day seat for 25 pounds and the view was incredible. And so was the show. I can't believe it's closing, the audience went nuts. The cast was excellent, understudies were on for Raven and Falco I think.

Giovanni has had his X Factor makeover today. Will be revealed tomorrow on the live show, but based on his Insta, either all his hair is just tied back or the sides are short and the top is long and tied back.
I imagine he may well be replaced if he gets through this weekends live shows by his understudy. With rehearsals for the live shows taking up alot of time, and also for the foreseeable until he is voted off, he cannot commit to any Saturday night shows at all.

Saw this again tonight.
The bad - the chewing coughing eating talking drinking photo taking ruffling in hand bags audience - The WORSE in the West End. Can't they send Patti Lupone over to sort this out.
The good - the show was looking in fabulous health First time seeing Jordan Luke Gage and was very pleasantly surprised. Gorgeous voice and a totally believable leading man. Full tonight so there is a market still. Gutted it's closing.
Any one heard any rumours of what's next for the set? Hoping for a UK tour!

His understudy has already said on Twitter that he's holding the fort while Gio is away, so I guess that means the door is open for him to return depending on how X Factor goes.

According to a Bat superfan, the cast have been informed Giovanni will be away from the show "until further notice". Which is obviously making sense.
One of them also made a point of saying "he will be back after he wins". 😂😂

I wouldn't be so sure of that. The X Factor/BGT contract is pretty intense and controlling and still affects people even after the programme finishes. I doubt he'll be back before closing.

I agree, I think that's it for him. I genuinely think the producers have kept him on the website in the bid to get X Factor viewers in assuming he will be on during the week. Bless their souls.

I'm surprised the producers have let him go on the show mid-contract. I would have thought they would have been stricter about this sort of thing happening.

I went for last minute day seats tonight, taking young dream with me for the first time as it’s half term. Show still seems on fine form, and I got to see Georgia Carling as Raven for the first time who was excellent.
We have decided to avoid telling littlest dream we went tonight as they would be most put out that I took their older sibling but didn’t take them!

It was nice to see though, and it was a great atmosphere tonight. I’m not actually booked again until the November singalong, but we shall see how long I last!

On their official Twitter & Insta feeds, they’ve been using some high quality cast performance videos for promo & it got me thinking, why don’t they make a DVD/streamable production? Surely that would help them make some more money & they clearly already have the equipment necessary to capture it
I know I for sure would buy a copy!

Sadly I doubt they would, especially with the tour in the US and the German production just about the start.

Sadly I doubt they would, especially with the tour in the US and the German production just about the start. The excitement of live theatre is rarely captured by a camera. Walking into the Dominion takes my breath away every time, just as it did in Manc and at the Coliseum. The way that grid invades the ceiling,the sheer size of it all is still breathtaking...the way the cloth gets sucked into the tunnel...All live experience moments that make memories.

I’ll take my chances with £25 day seats thanks...I need showering in the many things that leave that stage.

Dayseating for this on Wednesday for the matinee performance.
So, you guys told me a while ago it's not too busy. I think if I get there at 9:30 should be okay? Also, cash only? Or do they accept card payment?

It will save you having to go twice on Wednesday.

You get way better seats day ticketing than using TodayTix, day seats are normally in the first 5 or 6 rows. You won't have any problem, I go after work at 6pm and get day seats for the 7.30pm performance.
