Oh too bad I didn't get any of these emails If anyone signed up for the Priority Booking and is not going to use his/her link, please let me know!

If you're on O2, their booking period is earlier, and you can just access this through the O2 priority app. They won't have the first 3 previews on sale as they have been reserved for the Disney priority booking. I think I'm going to aim for the first preview as we've already seen the show in NY, and then we can return when hopefully I get an offer through work.

They seem to be expected Hamilton/Harry Potter levels of hype. Could they be a bit over-optimistic or is it just me who fails to get super excited over this?

I'm expecting Wonka levels of demand. If you can wait 3 months, you'll be alright.
I'll be able to wait much longer.

Having seen it on broadway and thinking it was so meh...... you can all relax.
It’s really not worth being excited over.

There’s a complete clip of Let It Go on The View’s YouTube channel. Audience going crazy at absolutely everything. Like, she takes off a glove “OOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH”. She takes off a cloak “GAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH” When the dress changes they collectively wet themselves.
I’m sure it will sell hugely.

The issue that I have with that clip is that it was for The View, so I have always looked at that as a none fair representation of how a theatre audience would react to that sequence. I imagine that there will be reactions, but not to that level! ... I would hope!

Yea, I think that's more showing off for TV and American audiences tend to be more excitable than British audiences anyway

That dress change is pretty slick though right? I think its best way they could have made it work, and I think its great! I imagine it looks better in person, as long as the lighting effect is timed right to mask the change. I remember seeing clips during previews where they hadn't got the timing right yet, and it made it so obvious how it was done! I think the whole sequence is good, though like people have said, where is the damn ice palace, or at least some stairs haha, though it does look like they may have added some stairs if the tour footage is anything to go by

I think the Disney theme park let it go with the bridge and quick change is better!

Been in the queue since 10. Have gotten in now. Was able to select a date, but am waiting for seating chart to load. It's been whirring for a good ten mins.

Don't expect much improvement when the seat chart finally loads. Whirrs for five mins or so when you try to add seats to your basket then brings up an error message. I've had about five attempts now!

Had this problem with LW theatres for booking Bastille at the Palladium the other week. Their site just can't handle any kind of demand.
I have my phone open too in case I have better luck on 4g rather than wifi, but no joy either way so far.
I guess it is safe to say there has been the demand for it!

Well, that was stressful but finally booked for the performance I wanted in November. Progressed through the queue in around 35 minutes, having joined at number 848 at 10am, but the seat plan then took ages to load, and when I could eventually see the seat plan it failed to add seats to the basket multiple times before finally allowing me to proceed. Even then on the payment page it was asking me to choose a delivery option but took around five minutes to display what those options were! I opted for e-tickets which are apparently only sent out 24 hours prior to the performance. If you ask for tickets to be posted, they will be sent out one week before. The other option is mobile tickets.

Finally booked, after telling myself I'd get a cheaper one after opening I went for an expensive preview. Stalls row H at the side £59 instead of £99 though (there were even better ones but they sold as I clicked them!)

If anyone else isn't using their O2 link, I'd much appreciate if they'd pass it my way. Thanks!
