First two rows not available to book for members...best £15 seats are row K extreme side of stalls...little row of 4 high seats. I hate it when they announce and you book instantly....it does not seem very fair on all the people doing other things at the time!  Plus makes organising with others pretty tricky! |

I hate it when they announce and you book instantly. I agree on that, though the 8am, 10am, noon booking "on your marks get set go" timings exclude many people too - in the online era maybe an evening kick-off would be fairer? |

Apart from all the people who couldn’t be online because they were at the theatre... |

I risked £15 to get a Stalls sight line to Alex Jennings' right ear.

The Bridge can't seem to resist a revolving set so perhaps we'll get to share |

Oh, the end of row cheap flip up seats don't seem to be a Thing for this - have they stopped doing them? I think I'll leave this for further cast announcements / reviews - I don't really think I'm the target audience for most of The Bridge's programming tbh.

I too noticed that the flip-up seats were missing - though having wobbled through one performance on them, I had sworn to avoid them in future. I looked again this time only in search of affordable options as all the £15 tix had gone by the time I could get online but as it turned out that the next cheapest option was £25 and still for a restricted view, I'm also giving up for the time being.

You'd know if you'd been on one which kept flipping you off!

A narrow end-of aisle clamshell seat that folds away, a bit like the ones on the underground. I think they were around £25 last year. |

It's also now a co-production with Chichester Festival Theatre ( link here) and is playing in the main house there prior to its run at The Bridge - mods, perhaps the thread title could be updated to reflect this? |

Very nice of the Bridge to also offer priority booking to non-members who booked for the cancelled run of this play. I have membership anyway, but it was a gesture I appreciated.
I couldn't see any of the £15 seats in the stalls, so I don't know if they were sold out or off-sale. I went for front row stage right nearest the entrance at £25. The seating plan implies that these seats face the opposite side wall and that you will need to angle left to face the thrust stage; however, my recollection is that there is a slight curve to the row and they're not that bad. I'm sure they'll be fine even if that is not the case.

Booked. Had forgotten I booked before…..but my decision making process was much the same. Like the playwright and the lead actor. I went for the same seats as mkb  |

Also unable to find any £15 seats so booked one of those £25 ones at the front of the stalls which mkb mentions. Having to pick a date so far ahead will probably lead to a terrible diary clash nearer the time or finding that the day I've chosen turns out to be the only one on which I could have seen something else compelling but that's always the way so I'm hoping this is worth that leap of faith... |

Public sale is open, some £15 seats in gallery 2 (you have to click through the seat map graphic which shows only £25 up).
A lot of the normal cheap side view seats are not on sale so I wonder about the stage setup for this.
Front two rows, last row and two side rows appear not on sale at all so I assume Rush or offer closer to the time.

Speculative pricing, imo. Alex Jennings will obv. bring them in droves along the Southbank from the clutches of Rufus but I'm going to wait-and-see.

If you like cheap seats, the 'London Theatre Week' has plenty of options in Gallery 1 & 2 and some back of stalls for £15. We've grabbed front row of gallery two, nice and central. Sat there a couple of times before and the seats are fine.
