first world sulking and becoming theatre pimp

[burntcopper]

Because I'm on waaaay too many mailing lists/twitter theatre feeds, I get all the special offer emails. And am suddenly the pimp for my mates. Just fired off the latest Little Dog Laughed and Legally Blonde offers. Legally Blonde, am slightly peeved since Ambassador had a 24 hour sale for monday-thurs perfs for £45.00 (Savoy is tiny. everything except the upper circle and back row is £60), so grabbed miniosiris since she'd missed it due to snow, booked tickets. This morning? A bloody thurs matinees for £29.50 offer (however, only up to 25th march whereas we booked for May). BOLLOCKS. so my mum is now going to see it cheaper than me next week...

Out of curiosity due to someone using it in a glee fic, went looking for the In the Heights musical on spotify. Not there. :sulk: Went on youtube, fell drastically in love. checked for amazon/play. £24 on play, £18 on amazon. aka OUCH. Had major dithering about cheapness vs the fuckwittery of amazon (the latest macmillan debacle just ups the bad taste in my mouth). Then smacked self on forehead and checked dress circle. £21. it will be mine. oh yes. :whines: why can't more stuff be on spotify?

You need to be on better mailing lists. I've seen far cheaper offers for Legally Blonde than £45. In fact I would go so far as to say that's bloody expensive. £20 matinee offer was the last I got sent. I haven't got any now as I delete them when they come in or I would forward it to you but I was quite surprised that its extended to 2011 as I've been absolutely deluged with offers for it.

I didn't get the impression much was selling in the West End at the moment - offers abound including plenty of 2 for 1 deals.
