Mind arrived shortly after 10. It's usually the same for me of a morning...after three cups of coffee.

Booked in the general presale (12 noon). Still a huge amount of availability. Have risked the front row (£25) seats, the view is normally good from there. Same here. Had to go through a couple of weeks to get one of my preferred seats (A11- A15) on a free date but found one for mid September. Whenever I try book a LW Theatres show my user name and password aren't recognised and I have to register as a new customer which the booking system happily accepts. Doesn't happen anywhere else, odd. I see two dates are sold out already. 5 and 11 September. I assume one is the official opening night but why the other ?

Booked easily this morning for the date I wanted, row B.
Sat in the front for Heathers and whilst the view is nice, you neck feels it, so went for row B.
Still haven't got a confirmation email, anyone else?

Anyone know what the views like from the back row? I sat there for Big Fish and was happy. You do feel rather high up as the rake is steep but otherwise not too shabby.

Book Too! Sitting in row C, a little to close for my liking but, it's ok.
Now, it's time to life in a fantasy world where Queen Stephanie J. Block returns and makes her grand return to the show.

Looks like I'm with a lot of posters in finding row B the sweet spot in terms of view and price. I have absolutely no beef with the back row in this theatre though, and would have been tempted if my other half hadn't refused.

I know nothing about this show but based on the reaction on here, I wanted to give it a try.

Yeah I’m in. Daniel Boys is gonna break my heart in to about 800 pieces with all of Act 2. LPP will be hysterical and heart breaking. Oliver will just be his normal beautiful self.
Can’t wait - bring in first preview!

Great cast especially pleased about Daniel Boys. Just need to find an aisle seat now as the legroom in that place is a nightmare.

No former Pussycat Doll or member of Girls Aloud? Meh, count me out. On a serious note, I wasn't going to book for this but may have to now.

Seems Matt is well and truly in the theatre world now. There was a time after Memphis where it seemed he might not do a show again.

Look out for high levels of checker-board-style in the design for this show!

Must say I’m very impressed that he will be opening this show 6 days after finishing Jesus Christ Superstar. Very excited about seeing this show, also my first time doing to The Other Palace? Any fun facts about the venue anyone?

I don't know about *fun* facts, but be aware that the stairs in the auditorium are really steep, don't rush up or down them. Also there's a door near the front on the high numbers side that it can be easier to leave from when the way back to the main entrance door (at the back on the low numbers side) is ridiculously crowded after the show, and there are more toilets down that corridor than can be found on the ground floor in the bar area too.
