The standing isn't numbered, it's just a general admission thing - it's just shown on the map that way so people can see where it is.

I know people who saw it on Broadway and they were like...it's fine.
But she's fun, an the audience will be fun, so I thought why not!

Booked two upper circle £25 seats as I'd just like to see SJP.
don't really care about the play but don't like missing out so thought I'd give it a whirl.
Loads of availability though for most shows

I've found that on the side is best - far left side as you come in is better (especially for Act 2)

What does the flying represent in this show? I've just deleted a longer post about 'magical disability' in case I'm being unfair to this show, having not seen it yet. the Henry pre accident flying is him finally addressing the accident

I really struggle to see how this can be anywhere near as divisive as ASL was, but you may be right. Only ASL was an amazing experience and a ground-breaking show and this...well..isn't. This is Tyler Perry at his finest And I feel the exact opposite 😂 can't wait to see what the critic's think.

Love how theatre can make people have such different reactions.
I for sure thought this had it's issues, but the positives outweighed the negative considerably for me.

Well, at least the regions got 4 actors I guess?

Sad to lose Gina McKee who I thought was terrific in this, but Dervla Kirwan a lovely replacement

Some of the score is forgettable sure, but there's some undeniable bangers in there (The World Is Waiting For You, title song, The Things We Shouldn't Do to name just three)

I'm fairly sure Plymouth has a massive rehearsal space on site and a set workshop so they can effectively pick everything up and relocate there for X amount of months to get it ready all in one place - so it makes sense.

I would imagine they'll try to get to October 3rd to announce but so many people know now that I wonder if they'll have to go earlier

There is some discussion about an interval being tested sometime this week (might be tonight I'm a bit unclear)

I just logged in to have a look at the number of preview tickets available on the dates and it's a lot, so wasnt being sarcastic - I genuinely thought the majority of people would probably be ok as there seemed to be a LOT available (and I got through half an hour after booking opened and there were still loads)

There's SO many PWC tickets though for this so like, logically most people should be fine

I didn't mean to knock JOJ and sad that he's had to leave the production, I just didn't think he was particularly well suited to the part when I saw him (compared to other stuff I've seen him do)

...bitchy comments about his voice?
He's a great dancer, but he cannot sing - I don't get why it's harsh to say this? He does panto every year and dances and that's great, but there's a reason he doesn't sing as was in display here 🤷🏻♂️

You know sometimes we get bad intel, right?
Very happy to not say whenever I hear anything if that makes you feel better 👍

I imagine the stalls is flexible, but I can't imagine there's a lot you can do to the balconies or circles.

I wonder if LW Theatres hasn't got a show in place to replace Frozen just yet. Considering the backlog of shows trying to get venues in the West End at the moment I don't know how likely this is - but it's true you'd need one of a particular size (or with a particular star) to even contemplate going into TRDL
