Pleasantly surprised by the £15 front row of upper circle seats. A fairly painless booking experience.

Up to £100 in previews and up to £185 for the rest of the run- Cheaper restricted view stalls seats are £45, and £35 in previews, in case others are interested. Looks like the front row (front 2?) aren't on sale yet. Currently row C is the furthest front you can get.

I ballsed up - got in relatively early and booked an £85 stalls seat for the second Saturday, assuming that was still previews.
Then after I'd booked it I checked the first Saturday and tickets were half the price! Grr.

I'm 22000th in the queue lol. Can I ask what the ballpark prices are for premium seating? A friend of mine just got in as she had a much lower number and she reports £100 for top price, then £85, then £55 (which still gets you decent stalls seats), at least during previews. I feared it would be much worse! Cool. Thanks - I was dreading Moulin Rogue prices. That seems ok.

Tickets weren't as crazy expensive as I thought.
4 seats in row C (which they've said isn't the front row but it was the front row showing) are only £32 marked as RV. Bought 2 - hopefully should be a fine view still.

The presale is on now, I have just bought a restricted view ticket in the stalls row C, we will see. Prices are high but not stupidly so, I think! I'm 22000th in the queue lol. Can I ask what the ballpark prices are for premium seating? This is selling surprisingly slowly! Incompatible! Further evidence that these queue numbers are totally fake. I’ve thought it for a long time.

I guess a lot of people are using multiple devices, and they do have 8,000 tickets a week to sell. So I could believe there were 22,000 entries into the queue. There is just a lot of availability left. I managed to get a first preview ticket an hour after they went live.

The preview days are almost sold out but plenty of seats for the rest of the run from what I can see.

Well done if you got previews as the prices are significantly less. Once it opens main central stalls/DC seats are 185/155 with a lot of cheaper seats 45/75/90/100 carrying restricted view warnings. Seat plan site while shows mainly green reviews the photos show you are at risk of dodgy views due to the low stalls rake or the rails on the circles. Will hope to catch it sometime but expect it will be around for a while.

The £90 (post-opening) front row of Dress Circle tickets might be worth a risk. These are being sold as restricted view but this row has been sold as restricted view for years in The Phoenix but the rail doesn’t actually impede view (and I’m only 5’1).
Edited to add: I do absolutely weep at tickets being priced at that amount for a potentially restricted view though!

Interesting (?) point of note - evening shows are at 19:30 up to 13th December, but from 15th December onwards they're at 19:00.
Why?!

Thank you dollybm for the info as that row maybe as you say worth the risk, and the 95 difference from the seat behind would cover the parking, train fare, tube and an ice-cream tub!. Just the leg room issue to decide on but does seem a popular row but at the moment several nights still have seats. The 7pm start would seem to indicate it's going to be a long night so comfort is more of a factor. Busy also for the actors with the Friday matinee alongside the weekend it's five shows in two and a half days.

From memory legroom isn’t the greatest is the one thing I’ll say, was absolutely fine for me given my height but definitely keep in mind.

The 7pm start might be less to do with length and more due to the fact it's Winter. Frozen has 7pm performances and that's show is only 2 hours 20 minutes.

Bought 2 - hopefully should be a fine view still. To point out - this was during previews (booked for 5th December) and the 4 RV seats are the two ends of the row.

Frozen is a kids show so it makes sense they have earlier start times, and they are all year round and not seasonal.

Does anyone know when to expect to hear casting news for this?

Haven't heard anything, but did see another trailer from their Twitter account this week.

Early December was previously sold out but they have just released prime Stalls rows G-J centre for December 2-13. Alas, they are £120 but if you have friend/relatives visiting who have a limited window or want really great seats, they are now available. I wonder if they had been held as press or house seats that they decided they didn't need.

I think it may only be the Henry casting announcement tomorrow but really hoping it’s a full cast list.

Thinking of booking a trip to London next month and really would be wanting to see this, but of course it’s sold out for the dates I’m there. Based on past productions of this caliber in the West End, do you think there’s a good chance of returns becoming available or more tickets going on sale as we get closer? Thank you!

Based on past productions of this caliber in the West End, do you think there’s a good chance of returns becoming available or more tickets going on sale as we get closer? Thank you! Currently the front three rows aren't on sale, likely some have been removed but often these come on sale later on after they figure out if they can sell the front row etc. Returns in the West End are common enough that the committed can usually get a seat. There's to be a weekly lottery for this as well which is another opportunity. Ultimately though there's no guarantees, keep checking every day for your chosen date and you might get lucky!
