Assuming the intention is to reschedule with different seating configuration I think the message sent to ticket holders could have been worded more clearly.
"Our production of Sunset Boulevard on October 25th had been cancelled due to the current Covid-19 pandemic. We plan to schedule new dates for 2021 but the seating arrangements are expected to be different. Therefore a face vale refund ..." perhaps?

I’ve booked. Went for a slips seat as the circle looks a long way back. Especially the ‘cheap’ seats. It seems to automatically block the 2 seats next to you off.

I’ve gone for Row A in the circle, hopefully it won’t be miles away? 😳

I've booked row B in the stalls. Can't wait to hear that score being played by a 30piece orchestra. Found it a bit confusing at first with the added social distanced seats, I think it could've been made clearer what they meant. I wanted to get 2 tickets at the front but they didn't allow for social distancing and you couldn't leave a single seat empty which was rather strange I thought. Anyone else coming to the matinee?

Not rebooking given I seem to be £10 out of pocket for the first one. I assume deducted booking fees that they didn't want to refund, plus I bought ticket insurance just in case. It's sad for the venue, but it's impossible to plan anything at the moment.

I've got a concert staging of Sunset Boulevard booked at the Curve Leicester in December and that only cost £30 per ticket for the front row compared with £83 here.
Fabulous cast but I'm also going to take my chances and wait till nearer the time to book this if at all.

That said would love to see Mazz in this too but am working that weekend sadly, so hoping there will be more dates. Am also intrigued to see what the Alexandra Palace theatre is like; such a fascinating place/building (even if from where I live it's a nightmare to get to!)

With all the rave reviews for the stream on Curve website, I was really looking forward to being able to see and hear the material live. I don't suppose anyone wants to take any guesses as to whether or not this could still go ahead? We know January is going to be difficult but early February? Need to start considering buying train tickets as well which is the thing.

So on Magic at the Musicals yesterday they said the dates for this have moved now to October? And tickets go on sale in the next few days? What about current ticket holders AGAIN!

Yes. Mazz is absolute perfection for Norma and will comfortably sing it incredibly well.
It'll be a stand up and sing concert I imagine, but that's no bad thing. The material is really good, I don't think you need all the bells and whistles Curve tried - it was a little distracting.

Are they selling single tickets this time or still discriminating against solo theatregoers?

Too expensive for my blood I'm afraid, I can't justify £70/£80 for a concert of something I've already seen staged twice 😂 but Mazz will be incredible so those who are going will be in for a treat!

Agree on both counts. I understand the pricing with the need for social distancing, but with the travel costs added I'd be spending over £100 to see this concert. Looking forward to similar shows resuming at Cadogan Hall; pricing usually reasonable there and always superb performances.

I agree, I never would have booked in normal times but the cost covers 2 seats really and I’ve never been to the venue either so I justified it to myself. Also managed to book front row for Jamie in the evening so cheeky 2 show Sunday!
