Still no email as promised from SFP.
ATG Tickets over the phone also have no matinee showing up for Sat 24th June even though it's showing up on their website, but you can't use theatre tokens on the website. Very frustrating!

The quote about £30 tickets was - " I’m so happy that we are able to offer 300 tickets for under £30 to every performance in the West End run to allow everybody a chance to see the play.” so I presume this refers to all of the lower price seats currently on sale, and also any day seats (if that's happening), rather than a release of 300 £30 seats later on. But are ther really 300 seats under 30? Looks like less... I see that rows B (side) and C are not on sale within Almeida/Sonia priority. I expected behind the pillar seats in C and K to be reduced in price..

Thanks for the tip Nags, just did that and they sent me a new link. They checked my address and said the email had been sent out at 12:05 but presumably a glitch somewhere. Worth tweeting them or dropping them an email if you haven't got it yet.
Loads of tickets left, and the prices are refreshingly reasonable!
My preferred option (the row N and O pillar seats) are £25, back couple of rows of the stalls also £25, restricted seats in dress circle £25 or £15, similar in upper circle, and the whole of the balcony is £15 or £25. At a quick estimate, around 50 seats in the stalls and same in the dress circle were under £30, that together with the upper circle and balcony I would think gives you the 300 seats under £30.
Basically you can get a fairly decent seat for not much more than you'd pay in the Almeida. Makes a nice change!

I signed up specifically for this. I know I'm subscribed as I received first Theatre News email from them on 29th. Just had horrid thought. That means I'm signed up, right? Would be so embarrassing if after this to find out there was another list.

Yes, twitter only lets you direct message someone if they follow you: so you need to first send a tweet to them (ie just tweet, starting it with "@sfp_London") saying you've not got the booking link, they will (hopefully!) follow you and reply to your tweet, asking you to message them
If you look at their timeline they've clearly spent the whole afternoon doing this so might have been better just to resend the email to everybody!

Some very fair pricing on this. Very nice to see. Followed the steps above to get my link and secured two of the £15 front row of dress circle seats.

Thank you for the explanation. I've done all I can do. Hopefully either my tweet or email will get answered.

Dress Circle A1, A2, A16 and A17 are only £10 during previews and £15 after the opening night. Just booked mine with ATG card priority. Are those Dress Circle row A discounted side seats are decent? They are in red on Monkey but for £15 they could be good value anyway..

They are in red on Monkey but for £15 they could be good value anyway.. They look pretty decent on seatplan. Just a few complaints about legroom. They aren't marked as restricted view on the atg comments

But then there's 4 hours.. )) Yes, it doesn't say anything about safety rail in sight... I thought there should be some sort of sately rail in front..

Very frustrating! 24th June matinee also doesn't show if you follow the Almeida priority link, so assume it's being held off sale for some reason?

Unusually for ATG - in my experience - you can leave a single seat when booking

I did manage to book (after tweeting them following advice from savvy forum members on twitter!) and booked painlessly for 18th August. Because who doesn't want nearly 4 hours of Shakespeare the day before seeing 7 hours of Angels in America?
Anyway Happy early Birthday to me that weekend...

Getting this booked was almost as epic as the show itself! Sonia's email finally came through at 6.23pm! I was even trying to finally get myself up and running on Twitter to contact them to get the link re-sent but then it arrived.

Now I know how Wallflowers feel at a dance. Actually, I already knew but this is bringing it all back. Still no answer to tweet or email but there are 8 hours difference between here and London so hopefully (my) tomorrow morning an email will be waiting for me.

Sherrie, check your messages here for a suggestion as to why your tweet wasn't answered.
