Heading to London 20 April -7 May and heard about this deal today and got two seats for 22 APRIL. Trying to see as many shows as possible and happy my buddy PJ and I are booked. All this theatre planning is a hard job, but sometimes it pays off. West End here we come....

We had a works coach trip from Gwent to see this about thirty years ago. The lights went down, the band struck up, mass tap dancing commenced, and one of the group exclaimed: "Oh my god I can't sit through this sh*t" and walked straight out. So what did you do while the rest of them stayed and watched? I had declined, at the planning stage, to join my colleagues on their jaunt. Rob spent the evening in a nearby pub. Mandy was mortified. |

So would you go for the front row or the 2nd row tickets for £15?

There's no rake according to theatremonkey's site so I went for row AA.
Sheena will be close enough to read my jumper.

£15 is an amazing deal for the front row, but for a show like 42nd Street, you really need to sit back from the stage to really appreciate the dance numbers. The formations, the synchronisation, the feet!
I wonder if this production will use a huge mirror like has been done in recent revivals?

Love this board, just booked for my Mum's Mother's Day weekend in London (don't tell her I've been cheap). Thanks a million everyone.

Thanks for the tip off. I was going to give it a miss due to high ticket prices as I can only usually visit on a weekend.

Cheers for the £15 tip, also booked that. I'm prepared for perhaps missing some of "those dancing feet" being so close up, but couldn't resist the bargain.

If the stagenis the same height as Charlie, from experience, no one will miss any dancing feet!

I'll wear my TheatreBadge I've booked for 25th March evening too - at this rate most of the front row will be occupied by board members! |

6th april here and went for AA as I read there is no rake and I'm not the tallest person in the world. If I sat in A I just know I'd have a giant in front of me.
Thanks for the tip. £15 and no fees. Bargain.

Anyone have a delay in getting e mail confirmation after booking via the official website?
I booked this morning and still nothing through. Luckily made a note of reference number but usually when buy something online get instant confirmation.
