I can’t find any decent seating plan for Young Vic online- is Zone B, X a good area to sit in? It sounds quite far back.

They don't have seating plans for the productions at this point. You either book now at the price you're happy to pay and keep your fingers crossed you get somewhere good, or you wait for a seating plan to be confirmed but risk the production selling out in the meantime. I only ever buy the Zone D tickets and I've never had any visibility issues (indeed, occasionally my £10 ticket will put me right at the very front of the auditorium) so it's not the *biggest* gamble, particularly if you're willing to pay more than a lousy tenner. They do assign the seats once they've sorted out where the seats will be, so if you book now, you can find out before you go where they've put you (and, depending on availability, you may be able to exchange for a different seat/date).

For the dates I looked at during the friends booking there was nothing seated under £30 and on some dates only standing for £35 (but I only checked out a few early dates.) I went back today and got two seated for £30, which is more than I usually pay at the YV, but.....
During Friends booking I went for inexpensive tickets for Death of a Salesman, Blood Wedding and Fairview (I dithered a bit over that one.) So I guess it all evens out....

Thanks Neil, obviously that's how you point something out without having to be a dick about it. Honestly draft/draught is not really a word that comes up much in day to day use so I'd never given the difference much thought. But yes, that is how I'd automatically spell it, no it wasn't autocorrect. Sorry we aren't all PERFECT like some people, but I'm glad for the HILARITY a fairly obscure not actually error caused. My GOD it must be HILARIOUS living in perfect grammar land. Erm, gonna stick my oar in to say I thought it might've been an intentional pun on first glance - I remember you having some issues with The Inheritance, and given this board's general tendency towards groan-worthy puns... Nope legitimately just thick. Had no idea that was how you spelled 'draught' until it was pointed out. BUT there's a difference between a 'haha good one groan' response and the self proclaimed 'grammar Nazis' (hate that term as much as I hate the people who do it) |

Is there any way as part of the online booking process you can express any preference for the seat you'd like to be allocated? I'm not really bothered how far back I am but would much prefer an aisle seat.

I do find it satisfying booking theatre seats for the year after next. Just bought my first for 2020!

Not always very high value in terms of ticket yield or donations

First time I booked tickets a year in advance was for the Ring Cycle - really don't want to do that for a random show at the Young Vic. Find it very annoying when places put things on sale so far ahead - prefer the Almeida or National approach of announcing a lot but only putting a few months at a time on sale.
