Anyone know which shows will have a full cast this month? I might be able to catch it in the last 2 weeks of july thanks to some early finishes and want to see Natalie deffo, and possibly Maiya if I can- do we already know what dates they're off? Yes, the alternates have already posted their dates on their Twitter accounts. The only shows currently scheduled in July with a full cast are: 3rd July 5th July 7th July evening 16th July 17th July Aimie is off the week beginning 9th July Alexia is off from 20th July through the whole of the following week. Thanks so much- it helps me a lot!

Show is now sold out from 1st-18th July with 19th-24th only having single seats remaining. It's selling incredibly well! I suppose a lot of people will now be buying tickets to see Millie, Maiya, Grace, Vicki and Courtney before their last shows.

I looked at booking for the 21st, but there were only a couple of seats left at prices that I'm not really willing to pay for such a short show. I guess I'll just hope for the best with rush that day.

What's people's experiences with getting seats for this on the day? Is the rush busy, do they often have returns?
Great that it's selling out- but so frustrating when I have such short notice!

Yeah I’ve been struggling to book tickets as there are a bunch of us that want to go together! It’s a great the show is doing so well though.

TodayTix sell 6 (count em) rush tickets at 10am every day. It is VERY competitive and every time I've entered I have lost. To win, you need luck, and additional entries from people who are willing to enter on your behalf.

I've had no luck with rush the last 2 times I've tried (one of those was for a 2 show day too)😒 I've only been trying for shows where Vicki is on.

I hope they aren't going all in a bit too fast.
The tour seems very extensive and in some really big venues.

I am quite worried for the tour. It is a small scale productions, and I can't help but feel that some of the larger houses on tour such as Birmingham Hippodrome, Mayflower and Edinburgh FT will swallow it up.
When they first announced they were playing the Festival in Edinburgh I thought they meant the Festival Studios behind it which would be much more suited to Six.
Even the Hippodrome has the small-scale Patrick Studio which would have worked there...

I really wish tours would announce all venues at the same time. I know lots from the North East who booked to go to Manchester thinking it was the nearest venue. As not frequent theatre goers, they are going to be absolutely livid when they hear about the visit to Newcastle.

As not frequent theatre goers, they are going to be absolutely livid when they hear about the visit to Newcastle. It's really difficult though because for the most part, and depending on the show, they have to wait for when the venues are announcing their new seasons. When I worked on the Kinky Boots tour people were furious at the lack of dates in Ireland but we had to wait for the theatre to announce before officially saying it was happening. Also sometimes negotiations are still happening when other tickets need to go on-sale asap etc etc. Just food for thought!

Well like a complete and utter idiot I had 2 rush seats in my basket, and my mate had the bright idea of letting it go to get just one...
I should've already know I didn't stand a chance! A little sad ngl!
Going to see if theres any returns from the Theatre.

In Brum,the Hippo is a cavernous venue to fill... I live in Brum and the Hippodrome apart from it's capacity has a huge stage to take musicals and ballet etc. I've only ever been to Arts Theatre once and to transfer to that stage to something like Hippodrome or Mayflower doesn't seem natural to me. But I want to see SiX and if the girls can move around more on the stage then it could work. Plus if producers think it will sell out larger venues then go for it. The Alex or B'ham Rep might have been more suitable venues. My other question would be if it can play large tour venues then wouldn't there be a thought to cash in and get it in a bigger London theatre?

24 people on the returns list already; seems pointless!
I'll probably leave it tonight unless anyone knows of a spare going...

Didn't expect much but...I really liked this. It was an original take that combined erudition with a certain lightness of touch, which has always been hard to pull off.
Will be interested see what the team do next.

Interesting how some shows just take off with the fan girl/boy community and some don’t...there’s a research thesis in the making.

Ended up being in Harrods picked a dress up for my mother tomorrow so thought I'd pop into the palladium to see what they had left for Joseph; but ended up getting out of Harrods at 19:25, so went over to the Arts.
Got there at 19:55 and sadly they had nothing, just disheartened me more tbf 😂Stuck around till curtain up and there was 14 empty seats, but wasn't allowed any of them understandably.

What's the best way to find out which queens will be on on a specific performance in Aug? Check the alternates tweets? Has the Aug schedule been released yet? I am in London for a few days and I want to make sure that I catch certain queens but obviously the quicker I can buy tickets the better.

If you scroll back on the alternate's twitters you can see any scheduled dates they might have for holidays, but the actual alternate shows aren't released. I know off the top off my head that Natalie Paris is off the show week beginning the 12th August, so Courtney is on all shows until the Sunday evening. Which should be Grace Mouat's last show in Six.

Awwww thanks so much. The week Natalie is off is the week I am going down and she was top of my list to see. Thank you for being so helpful.

Courtney is injured and was performing yesterday, albeit mostly sitting down. One of the other girls must have fallen ill so they have no alternative but to cancel.

I saw the show on Saturday night with Vicki as Cleves and Grace as Howard. Maiya hasn't been well much this week, with Courtney being on for Parr most of it and then Cicki being on for Parr on Friday (Which I saw, absolutely incredible). Maiya managed to come to work on Saturday night, purely because she had family in which she didn't want to disappoint but it was clear she probably should have been in bed somewhere, recovering. She's obviously tried to go back to work on Sunday and not been able to perform again and without Courtney to cover and Vicki and Grace already on the show had to be cancelled.
I did hear a rumour they were going to bring Sam Pauly (Chicago company) in to play Howard for the evening show because she's in London for Evita but her Visa didn't cover it so they've instead had to cancel.
