Re: Free Theatre/Concert Tickets Discussion Thread
Finally saw Hay Fever last evening. I got the impression that SFF was giving away lots of tickets. Can't complain about our seats: row L of the stalls (we moved to row K in the second half). It was nice bumping into and chatting with bevvy and 5rannoch, who were sitting 3 rows in front of us.
Regarding the play, it was amusing and the acting was really good. Tbh, I only recognised one of the actors (she appears in the series Peep Show and Rev).

Saw Hayfever last night at the Noel Coward. It was fabulous, great cast and design and it seemed to go incredibly quickly, which is always a sign that you've enjoyed a show. We had seats in row P of the stalls, so no complaints at all. If you get the chance, go and see it, you'll be glad you did!!
