Do you mean the stage door? If so, to what side of the building is it? I completely missed it...

Did anyone get the usual reminder email for tonights showing of Rock of Ages? Does this mean that our tickets are still valid? I tried to email SFF but no response.

Sometimes the stage door is blocked by a gate and can only be accessed if you are lucky enough to go out by a certain exit when the show finishes.

Was just around the corner at lunch time so I popped into the Shaftesbury Theatre.

I was told that the SFF seats are not allocated until an hour beforehand and was asked to come back at 6.30/6.45pm. However nothing was said about the vouchers not being valid.

For those interested in the stage door it is on the Holborn side of the building. Exit the theatre, turn left down High Holborn and it is in the little side street on the left.

They've been saying that all days, but people have been getting their tickets earlier. I'd advise that if you're nearby/have time. Pop in around 5.45 and just wait until they come downstairs with the pack of SFF tickets

Oh yeah I saw something about this at the theatre. After the show you can record your review and "become a roadie". I didn't do it though.
