It's quite customary for reviewers to see a late preview once the show is frozen. What point are you trying to make? It's still a tawdry story- not just for "modern feminists" intoanewlife- it always was a shabby story and not all of us bought into it even when the film came out. It helps us to remember how crass that period of history was though (and how mistakes are repeated). It's a live action Disney princess film about a hooker, not a Nick Broomfield documentary about sex trafficking in Beverly Hills. I highly doubt it influenced an entire generation of young girls into the sex trade, but maybe you have better numbers on this than I've ever seen? A Disney film about prostitution- what a novel idea. I'm afraid I don't have any numbers, but fortunately they are not necessary when judging artistic worth or good taste.

The overhang is pretty harsh, but nothing happens at the top of the stage. It's quite close to the stage too, so not bad for £20, I'd say. Excellent, thank you :-)

The artwork for this show is so boring. Not even a picture of the principals.

Tried rush for the whole 20 minutes and finally got stalls L2 about 2 minutes ago, the last ticket probably as they’re now sold out! Ah I was going to ask where the rush seats were - that’s useful to know Can be different on other days though.
I went to the Friday matinee (which seemed to be a one off thing) I got front row A20 - the other seats to my left were sold as rush seats as well.
For the Friday evening show friends got seats in the dress circle.

I recommend checking ATG the night before or earlier in the morning before rush opens. I rushed for the Weds matinee and got F22 in stalls, which was available for purchase the night before at full price, so I believe the show just puts up unsold seats for rush.

Has anyone else dealt with their rescheduled email from ATG? Has anyone tried to get a full refund as opposed to the credit note with much success? I've been given a rescheduled date for March but don't think I'll be able to travel in that month. I'm hoping the show extends further to cover April/May but it's not available at this stage to book so the credit note would be of no use as it needs to be used by 11th August.

Email atgcustomer@theambassadors.com, quote your order number and tell them you would like a refund instead of the credit note and they'll sort it. ☺ They generally seem a lot more efficient at processing refunds now than they were a few months ago, once you look beyond the emails that fail to mention refunds are an option!

ATG venues closed until Sunday 17th January 2021, so this won't open before then.

Just out of curiosity, if Pretty Woman moves to the Savoy to fill the void of Sunday in the Park with George, then what's planned to go into the Piccadilly Theatre?

Do we think Pretty Woman is just going to reopen at the Savoy, or stay at the Piccadilly until it needs to leave for MR?

They would only get a run of 1-2 months in before they have to leave for Moulin Rouge, so I’d suspect they would just reopen at the Savoy if this is going to happen.

I wouldn't tweet it out but yeah – they're both ATG venues and it isn't like Pretty Woman has the heftiest set in the world (compared to MR which will need a LOT of get-in time)

I noticed the other day while walking through Soho that they'd taken the Pretty Woman marquee down off the Piccadilly Theatre...makes sense if it's moving.
