We got seats in row Q of the stalls yesterday. Not bad at all.
I had the feeling that I was watching the Benny Hill show or Allo Allo. I'm not used to this kind of humour but it was a good way to spend the evening.

I was able to get 4 together in row M last night.
It was really enjoyable, good fun.
102 Different free films seen in 2010 plus 2 repeat viewings and a few tv show screenings... not too shabby. Thanks to everyone for their contributions here.

I think I saw you. Didn't you go in at around 7:00?

Husband and I were in Row P too. Man in front of us had his mobile go off at start of play and instead of just switching the thing off he proceeded to check all his messages until I told him to turn it off. No, I did not say please. The play left me cold and I guess we were amongst the few who were not dying with laughter. I thought it was well staged and the timing of all the entrances and exits was well done but the play just wasn't up to much. And we thought a lot of lines were inaudible (and I don't just mean the ones said by the character with the speech impediment). Maybe I'm just getting old and deaf!

Greenland's not very popular isn't it? I think they are giving away tickets for that all over the place? Has anyone seen the reviews for it? I am not going tonight, but gave tickets to a friend, hopefully it won't bore my friend to tears....

Went to see flea in her ear last night - was the 1st time at lold vic and was impressed with the theatre and the set of the play. The play itself was enjoyable with some funny/witty lines but thought it was a little long. Was ready to go home at the interval... Overall 7.5/10

I don't think it has opened yet, though the many theatre bloggers (e.g. Thereoughttobeclowns, Webcowgirl, etc) routinely review productions from the first preview onwards. I received an offer for this from the NT but am waiting for the reviews...

The Whingers have really slated this. No use to anyone already going (don't look now!) but maybe worth reading for anyone still considering seeing it.
