I always feel cheated if someone announces a UK Tour and it doesn't include London, Manchester, Birmingham and then at least one date in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland (or I'll settle for Ireland in general for the Irish fans!).

Yay! She's coming back. Needless to say Ant (that's me) will be there.

What's her voice like these days?
I seem to remember her doing the Oliviers 3 or 4 years ago and it was not good.

Overall a bit scratchier, limited in range, and a tad less reliable/predictable ... as one might expect for someone her age. She sounded good in Dolly. |

Decided to sign up for the presale for this and just have a glance at ticket prices and of course Birmingham which is my closest venue is the only link that the code is not working for. I have the worst luck with presales!
EDIT: It's finally working!
I can't decide if I want to go to this or not; half of you seemed to be in heaven at her concerts last time and the other half seemed bitterly disappointed from what I can see!
Second edit: I'll be waiting and hoping for discounts for this I think!

If I go I'll do MK and get my favourite seats off to the side in the Circle, normally sold as restricted view but they won't be for a concert like this, and they're only £32.50. ATG cardholders can buy now, General Sale tomorrow.

Just do not expect the Bernadette of old. I saw her in Dolly and while it was great to see her, her voice is not what it used to be. Not much power and hard on the high notes. Definitely not one to go for the very high priced seats. Of course that is my opinion.

Already seen Bernadette although am really looking forward to seeing her again. I was thinking the same may book a cheap Birmingham ticket as never seen her live before .... and then there’s Sarah ... I’ve seen all her tours over here and she puts on a fab show .la Luna and harem were amazing.. but I saw this one at the cinema ... so not sure 🤔 this time |

Are there any clues as to the London prices? Are we looking at the £127 mentioned up thread? Having failed repeatedly to ever see her on stage, she has always been 'indisposed' when I have had tickets, I would like to see her live. Bucket list so to speak.

Birmingham prices range from £125 VIP down to £22.50. The next price down from VIP is £62.50 so VIP probably includes photo opportunity, meet and greet etc.

How many times have you missed her and in which shows? Just curious. I know her attendance in her three most recent shows has been 100%, but she did miss a few shows earlier in her career. Like I said, just curious as to where and when you missed her. |

I had the odd experience of trying to see her in Annie Get Your Gun and then a few years later in Gypsy, and both times being told at the box office when trying to buy tickets that she was unwell and if I was particularly trying to see her, I should try the next day. Both trips were a week long and I eventually saw Annie without her but not Gypsy. I also was unable to see her as replacement in A Little Night Music on a later trip but that was not down to anything on her part. So you see we keep missing each other, perhaps I can appeal for free tickets citing lifelong disappointment!!

Tbh, I don’t quite understand the fascination with her (I saw her in Gypsy twice - including the closing performance where the audience went wild - and in Follies). I enjoyed her performances, but didn’t think she was anything remarkable, either vocally or in terms of acting. Just my opinion though. |

One of these performers I'd wish I'd seen in her prime. I've no wish for my first live experience of her to be one well past her best.
Especially at those prices.
I do think she's amazing though.

So I registered for the pre-sale for the London Lyceum show and according to the website these went on sale today at 10 am.
Luckily at work I have playability in terms of my start time so today at 10am I sat down in front of my laptop only to find.... nothing.
The date of pre-sale has changed to Thursday.
Grrr!
So went to work late and deflated.
(sigh)
