Take it today is for DMT+ members, and tomorrow for registered members.
Dreading it already!
Do we think it’ll be around 12pm?
Last time I didn’t get an email till 13:30, only got in by someone on here posting the link as soon as they had it!

I've purchased my tickets and I'm out now so can't screenshot the prices but they start at £20 restricted view.

Got through in the end. Cheapest single seats are £45, so there aren't tickets available for all group sizes at all group levels, despite what the advertising says.
Tried to get a single seat for a JOJ show, but someone has got almost all of them and I had to checkout before my 10 minutes expired. Sorry, didn't get a plan in all the excitement, but the few single seats are almost all at the end of rows.

And people losing their place in the queue for not acting quickly enough when they get to the front.

The only pair of seats in the front row of the stalls are the ones immediately behind the conductor which are cheaper (£65) and my favourites anyway.
I managed to get them for a Sunday matinee so very relieved and happy !

Slightly confused! Website states:
*John Owen-Jones is scheduled to perform the role of Jean Valjean on Tuesday evening and Saturday matinee performances.
However, it also says under Times & Prices:
Wednesday - Saturday 7.15pm Saturday: 2.00pm Sunday: 3.00pm
There is no mention of Tuesday performances... Can anyone advise/clarify?
Many Thanks!

No queue now (and it's not sold out). There are Tuesday performances at 7:15pm on 22nd and 29th December. Basically, the weeks when they change the schedule around due to Christmas and the New Year.

Here is a seating plan with prices as best I can grab one with unsold seats (the different levels are from a selection of days). Looks like they've removed some rows at the back of the Stalls if various online plans are to be believed. Same prices every day.

A nice problem to have in that there are shows to book, but I moved the Pallidium panto to a Sun instead of a Sat so I could book for Les Mis on the Mon in the hope that it would be easier to book seats and also that Mon eves would be JOJ as previously.
Oh well, as I've got lots of holiday I'll just have to make 2 trips if I can't get decent Sat seats!

Some Tuesday JOJ perfs held back. More to be released. Done to stop his perfs selling out. Makes you wonder why they bother with Boe if they know JOJ is such a banker.

Bagged a pair of Dress Circle R/V’s on the end of row C for the Tuesday after Xmas; only £65 each. I’ve sat there before and its fine. Couldn’t justify £90 non premiums really. Got DMT+ as a sorry for numerous Hamilton cancellations so not only will we get free cloakrooms but was able to use priority booking. What a time to be alive.

I have nothing against Boe, but I just don't get his popularity, or why he's assumed to be the superstar booking. IMO, JOJ has a much more pleasant and expressive voice, and everyone I know from the real world thinks JOJ is a better JVJ. I won't make it to London for this, but if I were, I'd definitely be trying to get a JOJ date.

Do you know when they'll be released? I have priority access for tomorrow but won't bother if it is only his Sat matinees on sale as I want a JOJ show and need a single seat (or a pair of cheap ones).

I couldn’t bear the anticipation so bought dmt+ so I can rest easy tomorrow. I’m going the matinee before panto in the evening the Saturday before Christmas. I was able to use my les mis and dear Evan Hansen credit to offset it!

Snagged front of the Dress Circle for the last Friday night. Slightly restricted view, but I don't mind that for a concert and I'm just glad to have a ticket!

I've just caved and bought DMT+ membership just for this. I've got the single on the end of dress row A for Dec 22 to see JOJ again.

At least I saved the booking fee!

I have booked for the first night.
I notice that although the seats are socially distanced to your left and right, the seats are grouped directly in front of each other. Will this not compromise social distancing?

What are people’s thoughts on the distancing in place?

What are people’s thoughts on the distancing in place? that all seems awfully close together when you compare it to the seating that the Open Air theatre had for JCS.

Agreed... hence my concerns below. The seats are very close together. I have booked for the first night. I notice that although the seats are socially distanced to your left and right, the seats are grouped directly in front of each other. Will this not compromise social distancing?
