On a purely selfish note, I'm in London that weekend so if there's any tickets left I might now manage to go. Hurrah! Well, mine will go back on sale! |

I can still go, but as I'd already booked the train for the original date, it's going to cost me! On the up side, I moved my ticket to the new performance and now I'm sitting nice and close to the front, dead centre, instead of next to a wall.

Just booked for the Sunday matinee - I missed out first time around! Very happy, wanted to see JJ on stage for a long time.

And so I finally managed to get a ticket!
Whew!
After missing out last time at the Hippodrome and the sell out of these concerts, the rescheduling and the adding of an extra concert work to my advantage.

Stalking the website paid off, finally a pair of seats popped up. Happy Birthday to me! (that weekend is my annual Birthday weekend trip)

Stalking the website paid off, finally a pair of seats popped up. Happy Birthday to me! (that weekend is my annual Birthday weekend trip) It worked the opposite way for me. I had tickets for the original date and the new date for those shows is my birthday but I'm in New York that week so now can't go at all  |

Has anyone received replacement tickets for the upcoming concert? The email said that tickets for the rescheduled date would be issued in the coming weeks but I’ve had nothing sent to me and I’m wondering if my original October ticket will be fine.

No, I don't appear to have received mine either yet. I was hoping Jeremy would be coming around to deliver it himself.

Don't worry, I rang the Box Office on Friday to ask this very question and they said to just bring your October ticket with you and they'll reprint you a new one with the correct date on it 😀 I'm so excited for Sunday!! |

I also phoned them last week and they told me replacement tickets had been sent out but didn't know when. Read that to mean they haven't sent them out. They also told me to go to box office and they will reprint them. Bear in mind that if no one has received their new tickets there is going to be a very long queue to get new ones. |

Mine has arrived, but I did move from the Sunday to the Saturday performance so it might be slightly different.

Might be of interest anyone going Sunday afternoon. Box office opens at 10am and seems more than a few of us need new tickets so might be worth getting there a little earlier as there could be a big queue.

Loved it too. Hearing Jeremy sing some of those Smash songs is something I'd never thought I'd get so absolutely loved that. And that Being Him Home moment.....omg. Also loved She Used To Be Mine...and of course...it's all coming back to me now..
Literally want to book to go back tomorrow but it's sold out. I hear he's actually doing a different set for each performance.

Old poster and long time lurker here but had to login again to say how incredible Jeremy was tonight. He put everything into it and I would go again if I could. Bring him home acapella was so controlled and a real class act of how simplicity can punch you in the gut. And the encore was out of this world, how he didn't cough his larynx up is beyond me, absolutely insane. Now we just need him to come over in a show  but I wouldn't say no to another concert like that. Such a talent. |

So, Jeremy Jordon....
He was here at doing midnight shows at The Hippodrome two years ago and (despite my best efforts) I missed out.
When he announced these concerts again, I missed out.
Third time lucky, thanks to the re-sheduling God's I managed to get a ticket for tonight's show in the stalls, three rows from the front.
I mean Cadogan Hall is such a beautiful venue and quite an intimate space and from what I could, bar the odd seat here and there, this was full.
On stage is a black Steinway Grand Piano, a base guitarist, a drummer, another guitarist and a guy playing a cello.
Out walks Jeremy Jordan, casual in a Grandpa collarless shirt, in a casual pair of trousers and a cardigan with a glass of apple juice.
First song, Oh What A Beautiful Morning' sung in a way that you've never heard it before. Then Moving Too Fast from The Last 5 Years.
Then he starts to interact with the crowd, all with a confident, boyish grim and a twinkle in his eye. Next, Somewhere Only We Know by Keene.
He performs his own (and rather clever) version of Under The Sea from The Little Mermaid- I swear I friggin' LOVE that film!- then he sings the first or two original songs from his soon to be released forthcoming album. It's quite haunting and sounds a little like Adele.
The a song from Bonnie & Clyde, then a song from a TV series based upon Disney's Tangled (Rapunzel) and finally a suite of songs from Smash before an interval.
He casually swaggers back out singing The Schmuel Song from The Last 5 Years (which he actually stuffed up, having to stop and re-start at certain points) all the while interacting with the pianist and MD.
He also sang She Used To Be Mine from Waitress and an a capella version, bar the piano and cello- of Bring Him Home. No microphones, just him voice. I swear you could here a pin drop. Sheer brilliance! So effortless.
At time it appeared that he was barely even opening him mouth but the vocal range was outstanding.
Such a versatile performer.
His last song was Santa Fe from Newsies.
Standing ovations all round and he genuinely seemed white moved. He actually said "You're gonna make me cry".
And then the encore song It's All Coming Back To Me! Wow! Just wow!
Look, there are probably one or two songs sung that I've forgotten but if you get a ticket, it's money well spent.
I came out on cloud 9 and it made me realise how lucky I am to have this passion for musical theatre that cannot and will not be repressed and that moments like this, are opportunities that I would never have had if I'd stayed in Sydney.
I have to admit, I think I've got a bit of a man-crush now!

I’m so excited for tomorrow now based on that guys, sounds like it was a great show! Hadn’t heard he was doing his own album - great news. Is he trying to sell us anything before and after the show in leu of said album? If he sings Its All Coming... tomorrow I swear I’ll just throw money at whatever they’re flogging ha.
