theatre whoring

[burntcopper]

Right, trekking over to Shaftesbury to buy ticket for Hairspray for tonight - everywhere I've searched indicates that the only discount you can get on this show is group discount, so it's really not worth trekking to Leicester Square (further away). Buying direct from the theatre means I won't have to pay booking fees. :wails: why does this have to be one of the most expensive bloody shows in the West End?

ETA: Row C Royal circle for £25!

Still to go : La Cage aux Folles (need to book *soon* as it's limited run and starts on the 20th), Piaf, Zorro (again), Avenue Q while Daniel's still in it. Oliver and Priscilla when they come out next year. (you are not allowed to go see Avenue Q again when Julie goes back in. No. Nuh-uh. You're already contemplating 'Last 5 Years' for her. Well, er, not unless Daniel extends because Julie + Daniel would be ♥. I am weak and this show is cheap.) Still wavering on whether to go see Joseph.

ETA: OMG DANIEL extended! Reward for nano, here I come!

Was muttering about 'I need a calendar I can see all the time/easily accessible to-do list' and... no really. Why didn't I think to look at google docs and calendar for this?

Daniel's extended - so he will be playing opposite Julie Atherton. Considering that I think Rebecca Lock is fairly weak in the role I'm really looking forward to seeing him play opposite Julie.

You can get a discounted front row ticket for Hairspray if you turn up when the box office opens at 10am. That's what my sister and I did in July anyway. We only had to queue from about 9:30am.

I booked tickets to see La Cage Aux Folles yesterday for the matinée on the 25th October. Tickets are dead cheap in the previews and we got ours for £8:50 each including booking fee.

I still haven't gotten round to going to see Avenue Q, may also see if I can see Zorro and I fancy seeing Oliver too. Want to see Wicked (again) and Hamlet. I should spend more time theatre whoring too! :)

See L5Y, it's awesome if sung well.

And, um, I'm going to NY twice in 2 weeks just cuz Julia Murney's doing a concert the second week and I have the first week booked already. Shall we discuss obsessed? 12 hour bus trip each way.
