Pinter at the Pinter

Woke this morning to see this on my Instagram feed.  So glad I already have a ticket booked for "The Lover / The Collection" in September. 

Neck ache is worth it for a close up with Mr Tovey....

So some people on the forum are allowed to make
Comments about actors personal appearance

And others are not

Very fair and consistent approach

He can’t help his ears

I once referred to SRB
As rotund

And people shat themselves

Interesting
As obesity is usually self inflicted
From poor diet lack of exercise
And is an epidemic

Onsale for £15 for under 30s, so think I'll go for it.
Thanks

I had such a problem booking for some of these ( see above) that I have no idea what plays I did book for or who is in them. So could be a nice surprise. I did write down the dates 😀

Even happier now I booked this. Love Kate and Jonjo.

£15 front row seats now available for plays featuring Lee Evans

Lee Evans in Monologue seems to have been added to the Landscape and A Kind of Alaska group, and The Pres and an Officer has been added to the One for the Road group.

Thanks m8

Well. Cher was not in this. I was most disappointed. I was ready to join in with the 'Dark Lady' claps too. Instead we got some portly old chap torturing lovely little Papa Lazarou instead. I shall be writing a strongly worded letter. With appropriate pauses.

I'm also amazed that Harold was such a psychic. Even though he died 10 years ago he managed to write a play about Donald Trump as President. I'm stunned Antonia Fraser didn't ask him for the lottery numbers at some point. She'd never have to write again.

Papa stole the show for me (he was wonderful and manged to show real variety) even though I really don't think I knew what was going on for most of the time. I think I should have read up on the plays before going in. It's basically a set of scenes, a bit like a nasty revue. It reminded me a little of the recent 'Machinal' at the Almeida. Maggie Steed was of course wonderful as always and Kate O'Flynn was terrific even though I couldn't get it out of my head that she sounds somewhat like Patsy Routledge as Kitty in the old Victoria Wood show.

Just a word of warning. The show is in two acts. There's a very odd curtain call at the end of the first act where everyone bows and I think lots of people thought that was the end as there were lots of empty seats after the gin break. I almost headed out with my coat on too. Well, stylish chunky cardigan actually. Papa and Kate come back on to do another scene after the interval and then only they get to bow.

For those of a nervous disposition there is blood and some bare buttocks. But they're sat on a chair so if like a squashed buttock then you will be in heaven.

Not to sound thick but I've seen on the ATG site that there are front row tickets available for £15 for the first two groups of plays in this run, but both on here and the Pinter at the Pinter site there are references to £15 tickets being for Keyworkers aged under 30. When I was looking today, the actual ticket sale site didn't suggest there were any restrictions on buying these tickets but it did seem you had to collect them from the venue rather than being able to have them posted.

My question is, are these £15 tickets available for all or are there restrictions on who can buy them? I wouldn't want to get to the theatre on the day and find that I'm going to be prevented from collecting them because I've not met some criteria I wasn't aware of. Hopefully I've not missed anything on here, did try to look through the thread before positing this.

I bought them for a future set of plays and there was no restriction. It also offered me the option on checkout to have them posted I think, just like normal tickets, but I chose collection. When I booked they were not available for the first two sets of plays so if they have made them available now it must be deliberate and not a mistake. The first set of plays can also now be bought as Rush tickets on TodayTix. Just go for it, I doubt the box office staff will be bothered.
