Tamsin Grieg was 5th row, centre stalls this afternoon for Girl From The North Country at the Noel Coward. Also saw her in The National audience for Angels in America a few months ago.
Her height and hair make her an easy spot!

Well that's heartbreaking, having seen them at shows together over the years, I was reasonably convinced they were each other's plus ones.

Maybe one of the plus ones was the plus one of the other plus one?

We'll need alicechallice to come back and give a bit more context, I reckon.

Maybe one of the plus ones was the plus one of the other plus one? Jonny B and his piece arrived first, both bearded but Jonny's is a bit scrappier, boyf's was fuller bodied. Slightly taller than he, had a lovely navy coat on. Steadied Jonny on the right thigh as they descended the steep Palladium Royal Circle steps (aww).
Hugh and red-headed, beardy companion arrived 5 or so minutes later.

Heard from a friend that Christopher Eccleston was in the audience for 12th Night at RSC last weekend. As he is likely rehearsing the "Scottish play" for company at moment then this would make sense.
Does anyone know what is the procedure for cast members getting complimentary tickets for shows, it would depend from theatre to theatre and company to company. But would they get a set number per run to be used when they want, availability pending or might it be say for first night etc. Also depending who the performer was, I would guess a star might get them a lot easier than an ensemble member.

I’d imagine that’s right that a star would have a better chance of getting tickets. One of our family friends was in the RCS production of Death of a Salesman at the Noël Coward. He got us ‘house seats’ which were about £25 cheaper per ticket than other top price tickets. I think the cast also had a few comps to use.

At the National, James Dreyfus was sat on my row for Strange Interlude in 2013. I later saw him at the stage door waiting to greet best pal, Charles Edwards. I didn't realise at the time as I only found out when my friend mentioned it hours later.
And, while this is not technically an audience spot, after a performance of Richard II, I saw Ben Daniels and Ian Gelder by the Globe gift shop, so that still counts? They had seen the show cos BD tweeted about it soon after.

Think I saw Will Young at the NT last week, prior to Network. Although he could also have been going to Follies.
