I saw a production of this at the Lyric in Belfast and enjoyed it.
This new production seems very West End with the director and cast, but surprisingly it's being done at the Riverside Studios.

Agree. This would be a pretty heavy weight cast for a west end run- so to do it in Hammersmith is… a choice. |

It's a cracking play. |

I already know tickets for this are going to be quite high and hard to get but I have to say I am probably prepared to pay more than my usual to see this. I loved Cyrpus Avenue on the BBC and have always wanted Andy Serkis to return to the stage. Harrelson and Harlan are the icing on the cake.

I know a lot of people will book for Harrelson and Serkis, personally I'm there for Louisa Harland, she stole the show in Derry Girls. Is there any indication of prices at all?

Excited for this and the venue as it's local to me in Putney. Also really happy that Sam's Riverside, the restaurant in the studios, will likely be busy as a result. It's my favourite restaurant...in the world! Highly recommend! The food and ambiance are second to none and it's perfect for a pre-theatre meal! I reckon that Woody and cast will become regulars...

I got the link and got through very quickly. I managed to nab £30 front row tickets for the end of the year but looks like they will go quickly. As expected quite highly priced. There are handful of £30 tickets at every performances but then the prices are £65, £95, £135, £175!. Good luck to everyone else.

The not-leaving-a-set-by-itself rule scuppered me from getting a £30 seat near the front so had to make do with the back. At least I'm going.

Prices are nuts for an off West End venue. Ridiculous.

Had to spend more than usual but glad I found a seat close to the front. Never been to this venue and I hope there is a decent rake so I'm not completely screwed if a tall person is in front...

Ticket secured. It was annoying, though. I didn’t see it automatically selected for the system to choose best available for me and all performances showing good availability had only one or two of the most expensive seats left. Took me. A good 20 minutes to figure out i needed to tick the “select your own” seat button to see all seats.

Can't find any £30 tickets. Cheeked most dates, they might be gone... Quite a few £65 left but think I will wait for day tickets, if any.

Has anyone been to Riverside recently? The last time I was in the main space was Happy Days back in 2021 and I am pretty sure the floor was flat, no rake, with laid out chairs - much like the header picture on this page. riversidestudios.co.uk/studio-2/ |

Sadly I had forgotten about the presale and all the £30 tickets are gone. Can't justify £65 so hoping there will be day seats/returns or an extension.

But maybe that changes with the production. I could not find £30 tickets when I checked so I left it there. |

Wish I’d known about those £30 front row seats earlier. Joined the queue this morning and left when I saw 2000+ in front. I think £95 is the cheapest on the limited dates I can manage now.
