Wonder what theatre they're aiming for if this does have a future life? I assume somewhere like the Phoenix or Lyric rather than say the Duke of York's or the Pinter.

I refuse to pay £70 for membership in order just to purchase 1 ticket.
If I am unsuccessful I will put out a please to anyone who may have a spare ticket.
Other than that once the run has started I will have to queue for a return. I did it for American Psycho

Don’t be mean - if you have useful info to share, share it. Some of us are holding our nerve against shelling out an additional £70 for a membership. I’m not being mean. I’m being realistic. It’s mostly sold out already and it’s a tiny theatre. There won’t be tickets for everyone who logs on to get them. BUT Tickets do appear on the website every now and again. I kept checking and managed to get tickets to Macbeth which was an instant sell out. I don’t understand this post. Yes, there are performances with low availability (especially earlier in the run), and the stalls are pretty well sold. But t’s not remotely sold out. There are performances where the circle has barely been touched

I succumbed to a membership - was getting too stressed by the doomsaying!
And from what I can see right now if you are content to be in the circle or the back of the stalls a bit later you’ve got plenty of dates available, particularly later on in the run.
If you wanted central top-price stalls then there’s a few scattered singles still available.
This is of course assuming that tickets in the stalls were not held back for public sale.

I caved and bought a membership in the end. :0 I bought R/V seats. Price point wise - £10 for TF and £15 for Streetcar! Never had any issue with them before in the stalls.

I had it open on about 6 devices and the best I got was ~650th and still estimated over an hour's wait time.

I got around no. 1100 - queue is very slow moving - maybe they only allow 1-2 people on the booking site at the same time.

I was through by 12:03 and got what I was after without any problem. There were swathes of tickets available for about 10 dates I checked - a lot of them the circle only had a couple of tickets sold.

I'm at 459 in the queue and I'm down to a 20 minute wait now apparently so it might be moving faster than it initially looked.

I’ve moved down about 150 places since booking opened. Currently around 700th. Not holding out too much hope! 😂 Seems to be moving a bit quicker now, though.

I'm now down to 655 with 12.42 estimated arrival time. Hopefully a lot of the queue is for Streetcar ... and we'll all get ticket(s).

The queue seems to be moving faster now, my estimate time has dropped back to 12.36 from "more than an hour".

302 in the queue, just through and got the under 30s Tix for 25th October (first date they were available for) - got row D in the Circle on an aisle which I'm pleased with.

Got my usual back-right of the circle tickets for both this and Streetcar on a couple of matinees. There was plenty up there and actually lots of restricted view seats in the stalls for Streetcar on the day I checked (but I'm familiar with the seats I booked so I didn't want to risk it down there).

Post by FrontroverPaul on Sept 6, 2022 11:43:21 GMT
My lucky day. Got a single ticket in the second row of the stalls for the matinee on first choice of date. Good luck to everyone still waiting.

I'll probably book for slightly later in the run as I've had too many cancellations of first previews in my time.

Well that was easy, virtually straight in, all done and dusted by 1219hrs. I call that success

got through, got a cheap restricted view seat in the stalls for the day I wanted, so consider me happy. I consciously double-booked myself as I already have Band's Visit for the same evening. Will have to decide short notice which one I'll want to see

Does anyone know if Andrew Randalls is scheduled to perform at all shows? I'm hoping yes as it's a short run.

Booked for this and Streetcar. As others have said, decent availability. Booked my usual £10 cheap seats!

Just got a good stalls ticket for a Saturday night after waiting an hour. Lots of availability at the moment if you are still waiting.

Still managed to get a ticket for the November show with the Post show discussion, despite having 2500 people ahead of me so I’m pretty happy!
