Same prices across the run. Premiums £85/£95. Rest of stalls £65. Back rows £45. Dress circle mainly £65. Back row of Dress, all fo Upper and all of Balcony £19.50 Not quite. Previews 3rd to 7th October, all end pairs, plus Q and R stalls, all end pairs plus G dress circle are £19.50 as well. For those wondering, dress circle row G is worth grabbing in the main run. 17 and 18 clear in front, wrap legs around posts in 16 and 19, and good legroom under the rail. Not for the very short who will get the rail in view, but good if a bit distant for the rest. Closer than the balcony, for sure, and about equal to the upper circle. End stalls or Q / R best bet in your opinion? |

Tricky, without knowing the set design, if it's another "Skylight" the front corners will have big problems. I'd go ends of F to D in that order, then chance C to A, then go G back. Q is great if taller and R has 16 and 17 with nothing in front, though. Ta, went row Q in the end, not sat there before, should be OK hopefully. Didn't want to risk cutting off a chunk of the stage. |

If they use the same set design as the Broadway run, it was two tables and two pillows on an otherwise bare stage.

Booked for October, which pleasingly puts me in London at the same time as viserys (though she's playing with Potter that particular day!) |

Same prices across the run. Premiums £85/£95. Rest of stalls £65. Back rows £45. Dress circle mainly £65. Back row of Dress, all fo Upper and all of Balcony £19.50 Not quite. Previews 3rd to 7th October, all end pairs, plus Q and R stalls, all end pairs plus G dress circle are £19.50 as well. For those wondering, dress circle row G is worth grabbing in the main run. 17 and 18 clear in front, wrap legs around posts in 16 and 19, and good legroom under the rail. Not for the very short who will get the rail in view, but good if a bit distant for the rest. Closer than the balcony, for sure, and about equal to the upper circle. What's the aisle situation in G dress circle monkey? Is it at each end or in the middle like rear stalls row R? Can't see any aisle seats in stalls on my day so don't want to buy a wall seat in dress by mistake... |

Cross aisle in front of G, with F in the main block of seats, aisle then G behind in an alcove. No aisles at either end of G, just walls. Instead G 17 and 18 are where you enter, then go either left or right to your seats. That's why there's a bar upright at 16 and 19, as the rail runs across the front of the rest of the row to stop anyone falling into the aisle from the step. That's what I wondered. Thanks monkey, I'll go central if there's any left by lunchtime! |

I've sat in that little nest before too. It's lovely. Like a mini box-ette and you feel removed from the riff-raff too.
A bit private AND you feel superior and all for the price of a glass of vino at the theatre. It's a win-win situation.

I would think twice before sitting in the nest for a long play, but if you value a quick getaway and have been known to be something of a fidget, it's hard to think of any other seat in London theatre that fits your needs better.  |

Can't decide whether to gamble on cheap end of row in previews or go grand circle, thoughts anyone? I know without knowing set all bit of a guess.

I presume they will be doing day seats as all the front row seats are not on sale.
I also feel Anne Marie duff must have something in her contract that says the poster of her play must me arty and interesting ( oil,common and Heisenberg)

Booked this to see Cranham more than Duff, got a £19.50 stalls seat for this Saturday, not too much of a struggle at 80 minutes if I don't like it.

No big TV stars. 750 seat West End theatre. Two-hander short play. Commercial production. What's surprising ? |

Barely sold any tickets for it Surprising New play. No big TV stars. 750 seat West End theatre. Two-hander short play. Commercial production. What's surprising ? Author few have heard of (most famous for an adaptation of a novel; known for often difficult, oblique plays by theatre congnoscenti). I would have thought this was a Dorfman or Almeida-sized play. |

People still equate quality with quantity when it comes to ticket prices and it's tough to get them to part with £65 for a play that's only 80 minutes long, even if it is a storming great play (which this most definitely is). Factor in to Heisenberg's woes that it has a cast of two and not much set to speak of, there will be a huge element of "what am I paying for, exactly?" that they will need to overcome.
