Also, there seems to be some sort of cheapo tickets on the day - anyone used that and know how good the seats are?

Any advice on best seats for Legally Blonde? We're thinking of getting tickets for Mother's Day (not for on the day obv)...

I don't remember where I sat, but I do think we had some of the cheaper tickets and the seats were excellent. Also know they do day seats which is: 10 seats for £10 each day, 15 for £15 and the remaining ones for £25. You can b*y them at the box office from 10am on the day.

Edit: Day seats are usually the first few rows or last few. However the way it's phrased for Legally Blonde there are way more than at other theaters (where it's anywhere between 5-25 seats) so might just be the best avalable seats left on the day. Call the box office to get the specifics though :)

We sat 10 rows from front in stalls and good views. Enjoy it as I did.

Thanks c_t! Might be worth trying to get there for 10am one day and seeing what's there, else I can always book. May well call first...!

Definitely call first so you're prepared with the type of seats they offer. If it's best available left on the day it's excellent And if you can get there on a weekday, not a Saturday, there's a better chance of great seats left.

Yep, having a look at the type of tickets available at the moment, weekday tickets are more widely available, and in the first few rows too. Only just twigged how soon this ends!

Tuesday and Wednesday seem to have the cheapest tickets at the theatre.

Just been to see Hay Fever finally! Has been a while since I've managed any previews but really been hoping to catch this one. I do like the play any way and generally most farcical Noel Coward stuff, but really enjoyed this one. Caught a version last year at the Rose in Kingston and wasn't expecting too much variation, but found the actors definitely brought different things to each role. Definitely recommend as a good way to spend an evening. Nice theatre too which have never been to before either. Zach Braff's play is a couple of doors down, so as I came out he was chatting to some fans outside, so bonus celeb cameo too.
