Just last week I had noted this hadn't come back and now an email from The Bridge.

Is this a first for premium pricing at the bridge or have I just missed it before?

How much are the tickets? And do we think there will be enough ticket options by Tuesday 22 March?

How much are the tickets? And do we think there will be enough ticket options by Tuesday 22 March? Top price are in the 90s I think but there are front row cheapies at the side for £29.50 which I've just bagged six of - if you booked for the 2020 run you can rebook now (I'm not a member at the moment). Very exciting news. Great play, SRB, Hytner's first Ibsen as far as I'm aware. |

Shout out to the Bridge team. I asked on Twitter about booking despite having booked through an agency and they asked me to email the Box Office. In less than 90 minutes the BO had got back to me and manually added my account to the priority list and I was able to book those same front row cheap seats mentioned above.
Have to say this isn't the first time that the Bridge team have been both pleasant and helpful, so very happy to be able to highlight it here too.

The Bridge BO team have this strange idea that they should actually help theatregoers. I hope it will be catching.... |

I’m still praying they’ll reschedule “They Shoot Horses Don’t They”.

Yes, I got a standard email just saying when the normal booking dates are, nothing about being able to book early. I still have my booking details for the original dates, so I'll contact them. |

There seemed to be no queue at all when public booking opened today and still loads of those £29.50 front row seats left. It is a great play, still relevant today, so definitely worth booking even before we know who has been cast in the two big female roles.

Anyone know how good the seats are in the gallery; specifically Row C and B?

We've found them to be fine though careful on each side of the stage, they can be quite restrictive (it looks like the seats right by the side of the stage may not be on sale for this which might suggest the action is intended to be pretty far forward.
If you are specifically looking for that area, I quite like C24-30. On the curve so a bit more space than most seats in row C. No real restrictions on view but they are quite high seats.

Was so focussed on trying to book (and yes easy to do so today) that I'd rather overlooked who was going to form the main trio here. Have seen this once before at the Donmar fairly early on in my theatre days so ripe to see it again. |

which is the Ibsen that ends up with the main characters ascending a fjord? The Lady From the Sea, I believe. Though I think a fjord is featured in Ghosts. |

Don't they go on an epic march to a fjord or up a mountain or something at the end of Brand?

There's something like that with a mountain in When We Dead Awaken isn't there?
What's the one where they're stuck in a cable car?

Haven't seen Brand. Ralph Fiennes did it years ago but I think it was at the Haymarket so subject to my sanctions policy for that venue. The main Ibsen mountain ascent is in When We Dead Awaken but fjords feature heavily in many of the other plays. There's a bit of important mountain chat in John Gabriel Borkman but no real ascent into the high mountains, only a brisk walk in the woods. There is significant non-mountain climbing in The Master Builder.
