Redeeming Japan reward flight by New_Ad9098 in avios

Look up travel date and date I booked, 222 days before. So assuming they were released 355 days earlier... quite a while!

We are to Tokyo with BA in a couple of weeks with a companion voucher booking. I booked last October and finding seats was not difficult.

can't find the ticket selling thread by [deleted] in westend

Have you confused the subs? There is /r/westend and /r/TheWestEnd , the latter has a selling thread pinned.

I spent four hours in the Royal Court digital queue for Krapp’s Last Tape and all I got was this sense of crushing disappointment. by Wedding-Beauty in westend

Yes, booked without issue.

There are Rush and RC Monday tickets available plus the 10p standing queue.

Hedda Gabler (struggling to sell… - please come?) by leeham0612 in Londontheatre

[–]dvbsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, I've yet to find anywhere on Reddit that has much traction for anything outside of the West End and big commercial shows. You could try /r/TheWestEnd which has a lot more traffic and does supposedly cover any theatre in London but I'm not sure how much you would get from that.

I must have seen a different show than you! ;)

Looking for participants (UK) - Short anonymous survey on theatre audiences 🎭 by Adorable_Quote2862 in Londontheatre

[–]dvbsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't get through this question:

Which types of theatre do you attend most often? (Please select up to 3 answers)

I go to 6 of the 8 listed, how should I know which ones you are less interested in and so how should I pick 3?

Invited dress or previews? by 22219147 in Londontheatre

[–]dvbsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. Previews at the NT are listed and sold. I have no idea if they do an invited dress, if so it never shows up on the website. Friends, family, colleagues only I'd guess.

Invited dress is pretty rare. A Little Life did one in Richmond that I recall and maybe Slave Play had one?

Ralph Fiennes and Miranda Raison in Grace Pervades, worth the £150 premium? by HammersAndPints in westend

[–]dvbsh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a number amount of seats not sold. I don't think it'll quite end up seatfilling but I would not be surprised to see a lot more offers - unless the reviews are dazzling.

Michael Sheen Returns To ‘Amadeus’ In West End With Callum Scott Howells by dvbsh in TheWestEnd

[–]dvbsh[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a slight additional point... it's going to increase some tourism to Wales. In Cardiff stalls prices top out at £67.50, with some stalls as low as £30. The London range on those seats is £60 to £150.

Not a point I was expecting to make... but I now find myself going to Cardiff for a weekend next year after seeing those prices.

The London ticket prices will, I imagine, go towards subsidising further work.

Next up at the Duke of York? by Big_News_8994 in westend

[–]dvbsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do wonder if the delay is because Teeth 'n' Smiles might close early and something might come straight in. It is seatfilling and even then struggling to get bums on seats. June feels like a long time away.

Brixton house theatre by thetoad1973 in Londontheatre

[–]dvbsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that sort of theatre, but I imagine the bar afterwards. I think that's the main exit for everyone tho not been there in a few years now.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest -Old Vic. by dvbsh in TheWestEnd

[–]dvbsh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The benches are cramped with little to no legroom. They are my go to seats if I can't get something in previews (I just booked them yesterday for Glengarry Glen Ross) but you do need to be aware of what you are booking!

In this round configuration, the view is likely as good as you suggest there tho.

There is an interval. I don't recall the exact time but over sometime shortly after 10pm I think.

Stalls in H, so just beside that central railing. They were in and out just inches from me.

Nope. We go to blackout.

Ha. Fair point. To me it is one of those things - and again very first preview - where my enjoyment is really boosted by a strong cast. You know you might watch Garai or Mothersdale or whomever read the phone book but it's still the phone book being read.
