Back to the show and annoyingly there seems to be a big gap of no performances between 10th and 27th June, which is of course when I was looking to book, so that I could nail The Pillowman, Patriots and A Little Life on the same trip. What a pain.

What a pain. Yes, gets notebook and diary out, finds date, looks at schedule….”oh, there’s a gap”……

I know that gap is not the return of rep, but out of interest have the NT said anything about when/if they will return to rep?

What a pain. Dates are currently only going up as far as 10th June, with more to come. Maybe the June performance 'gap' which appeared online earlier in the week was a glitch. Here's hoping they announce full dates soon because 20th April - 10th June is pretty limited.

There’s been 1216 people ahead of me for 20 minutes. They clearly don’t know what they’re doing

This is so surprising because the Nash is normally the absolute best for queuing,,,

Went out and walked the dog. Lost queue place and am now 1220. I'm not sure I even want to see this play anymore.

I am down to 467 - the lowest I've been in the 3 hours since I first logged on - yet somehow still very far.

I gave up over 2 hours ago; just like my terrible booking experiences when I was a member, but at least I'm no longer paying to be frustrated and stressed.

Finally got in & managed to buy for both Lughnasa and Motive, but my what a palaver.

Not for the first time I wished the NT had an option to book a single production/ticket only, as with self-service supermarket checkouts for "5 items or fewer" or "basket only". Infuriating to be stuck in a queue behind people who might be booking multiple tickets and for several productions.

I was looking after a friend's dog so just when I finally got into the booking it began making noises like it needed to be taken outside, so all very stressful - panicked and ended up quickly booking two inexpensive but very bad seats for Motive - and that's it.

I was working until late yesterday and while I saw the comments in here about the kerfuffle trying to book tickets, haven’t managed to go onto the NT website until this afternoon: I was expecting the whole run to be gone but there was actually a fair selection of seats still available and got a 4th row stalls seat for £20 in early May, I had no intention of paying £70 to see it so I’m happy with this.
I can’t remember the last thing I saw at the NT but it was a good few years ago, I’m thinking it was The Red Lion but the offerings since have all been a bit ‘hmm…’ for my liking so I hadn’t even looked at availability.

I hope the dog was ok in the end! I also went for a (probably) bad seat on the side - I have never sat there before. Panicked that I wouldn't find another cheap seat if I did not go for it.

It was before the Rush started so I think it was just the luck of the draw (it was advertised as a restricted view, narrow seat but it’s in the fourth row and almost central so not sure exactly how restricted the view will be but I’ve sat in similar there before without getting my arse stuck in the seat or having to stare at the back of a prop)
