Got a klaxon ticket for this on Thursday (12th) that I’ll give away for free, if anyone wants it? I could be very interested in this if it’s available. Is it matinee or evening? Standing or seated? Would you not want anything for it? Thank you for the kind offer.

I will never understand why the Menier think that a bottom price of £32.50 (in previews!) is acceptable for a fringe venue. I rarely tend to book anything there anymore.

L3 will be ideal: I said in a previous post that L is the row to aim for if you have a choice. You did indeed, showgirl, and I took your mighty fine advice when booking so thanks!

Sitting in seat L3 tomorrow. On the side. Same level as stage. 3 seats from stage. I know it’s restricted view but does anybody have a sense of how restricted? Will much be lost? I remember watching the people in those seats for John and it looked like people were getting super frustrated with their lack of view (although that was a deep set)

Looks like the full plan and ability to select seats is now available? I got through to the plans just now and could select seats.

I really want to see this and its likely I will get a Friday Rush front row ticket. Before I do I just want to double check just how tall the stage is. I know a few people have given their opinions on here. I am just under 6 foot but get quite uncomfortable if I have to look up too much/too steeply. Is it worse than say the cheaper seats at the front of the Olivier or Lyttleton? Is it bearable for 2 x one hour blocks?

The sentiment running through this post comes through much stronger if you play Land of Hope and Glory or the New World Symphony whilst reading it. Honestly. Try it

And how can an atmosphere and a performance be unreal? It is very real. English language should be used appropriately

No. It opened last night without a cast or creative team in place

I have a similar quandary in that I bought 2 tickets through TodayTix before they went on sale and I don’t think the limit was even mentioned then and so I bought 2 Lucky Dips when public booking opened. They can try and take two away from me but I will FIGHT THEM IF THEY TRY I was in the same quandary and emailed them about this. I already have 2 tickets booked through todaytix, and the response they gave me was: "Thank you for getting in touch. Yes you will be able to purchase 2 extra tickets through our website if you so wish" Great stuff. Thanks for that <now puts boxing gloves away>

I booked about 6 tickets for the first performance for me and some friends during members booking before the ticket limit notice was on the site. YV haven’t contacted me to say I can’t have all those tickets and the bookings are all on my account so I’m hoping it’s ok? I’m too scared to ask in case they take some of my tickets back and I have to disappoint my friends!

In response to your original question.....I’m fairly indifferent to it, to be honest

Excellent. Reckon this could be the best play of 2018 then Okay The second half is MUCH better But for me it’s too melodramatic Plenty of people sniffling towards the end 🙄 It may well be transferring from what I hear Tonally it is confused And the themes are presented in the broadest possible way But overall there are some powerful scenes And the ending is nice I wish they had used a real lantern though Not one with an electric light and a balloon inside it WFT?! Where did you hear that it might be transferring? And yeah I thought the same. WHAT f*** THE?!

I ordered straight from the theatre so it's on that account page. Oh sorry. Your comment referred to the previous comment about finding out seating through the TodayTix order. Hence why I was confused.

Weird, I have the confirmation email for me Fun Home tickets in July but it’s not showing up in my TodayTix account in my orders. Is that normal? Are other people seeing theirs showing up in their account?

This is laughably bad Like a school play The acting is hilarious itself But the dialogue is so stilted And self referential The whole thing is like a parody of something Yes it’s better than Macbeth And urine is also better than excrement Excellent. Reckon this could be the best play of 2018 then

Jeez. We were promised a major star. Gillian Anderson has lived in London for years and has done all manner of theatre and other work. I can see exactly how she will play it too. It’s hardly top drawer exciting casting now is it? What a shame.
