I’ve been looking for an excuse to go to the Bridge Theatre, and LA BELLE SAUVAGE is just that. Do you think this will be immensely popular? Do Bridge shows sell out? How is it selling I priority booking?

Having purchased tix today for the recently announced programme I did notice a few things -
Number - Still good availability for cheap stalls tix (£15/25). Gallery 2 appears to be reserved for Young Bridge Members on all performance dates.
La Belle - Gallery 2 is probably your best bet for the £15/25 tix. Not much going cheap in the stalls on the dates I looked at.
Shoot Horses - Gallery 2 again is your best bet for cheap tix (£15/25). The dance option tix are based in stalls A-D and AA-MM or Gallery 1 AA-CC.
Borkman - Gallery 2 for your cheap tix £15-25.
Gallery 3 doesn’t appear to be in use for any production so far.

Booked all 4 putting our first 2021(!) date in the calendar. Also booked what I think is our first ever press night as there were mid-range seats for A Number and I thought it might be nice to finally do "opening" night 👍

Just booked A Number in presale. In case this affects anyone else, I kept being told there was only one £18 seat available, yet when I tried one on phone, one on desktop, there were adjacent seats free. It let me book them as separate transactions, so I wonder if they just want a booking fee per tickets for the cheapest level. Of course I'll probably find tomorrow that I could have got them anyway, but there we are- I'm restricted to certain dates so at least I'm sorted.

What is availability looking like for LA BELLE SAUVAGE? Just checked a few random dates. Lots of seats still available.

Turns out I'm not a 'pre-sale' person. Lets see what tomorrow brings.

Relatively straightforward booking today for John Gabriel Borkman. Nice to have something for April 2021 in the diary... It does look as though they might be saving the front row cheapies for releasing some other time, or until some staging decision is made? Which is a shame as that's where I've sat at my previous sittings there (when I was a member). I must say I'd be annoyed if I were still a member and I didn't get access to those seats. I went for side Gallery 1 when you can get a mix of restricted view (pillar, I assume?) and full-price not so expensive full-price tickets. If memory serves (having seen Scofield/Redgrave/Atkins for Richard Eyre and Michel Piccoli for Luc Bondy!), being a bit high will be good as the last scene is an open-air snow scene.
Will this be Hytner's first Ibsen? I don't think he's done any Chekhov either. The only stuff from this era he's done is some Shaw at the National and The Importance of Being Earnest in the West End with Maggie Smith. A welcome departure for him.

Painless getting tickets for baby Lyra, with the added bonus of the Bridge site automatically applying existing credit from my account

Booked for Borkman and Horses. They other 2 seem less popular so I'll wait and rush those.

Still no news on the intriguing two-month gap from late March? I'm coming up for two days at the end of the month and am finding it trickier than usual to fill my four slots: will almost certainly see my first Vanya since SRB, based on reviews here, but there doesn't seem to much on elsewhere (Donmar, Almeida) that appeals (I already have tickets at other times for The Visit and Leopoldstadt). Would certainly jump at the chance to see Maggie Smith again if that comes back. The Hampstead will be announcing soon too, I suppose.

From what I understand there's no announcement because they currently still have nothing in! I was talking to a friend who works there and she said there was nothing in when she last looked.

We've not spoken for a couple of weeks and as we know stuff can change in a few hours in theatre, but yes, slightly concerning!

I'd be astounded if the Bridge goes dark for 16 weeks. Something will be in.

I know there's 0% chance of this going ahead at the moment but was there ever any casting news for La Belle Sauvage? It's the only thing on my list that we've had no scheduling news for but it seems to be a black hole for any type of news at all :/

.... and they've just confirmed La Belle Sauvage is postponed until an unspecified date.
Refunds available or same seats held over for new dates.

Looks like the Bridge Theatre’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream is on its way streaming to our homes. I guess through National Theatre At Home?

NT only have confirmed today of Madness of King George being next week's stream.

The email about the postponement ended with: In the meantime, for those who missed A Midsummer Night’s Dream at The Bridge last summer, or who would like to relive the experience, watch out for an announcement very soon.
