Theatre tickets - is there a secret way of getting cheaper tickets that I don’t know about?!

I’m desperate to take my little girl to the theatre for a birthday treat but the ticket prices are insane - is anyone able to please let me in on any secret way of sourcing cheaper tickets that I haven’t realised yet?!
I can’t believe everyone really spends over £100 per seat? Or am I just really poor and out of touch with how much the theatre costs these days?! Thanks!

Don’t go to the West End.

Most theatres outside of the West End have tickets for well under £100

If you book on the day or choose a midweek show prices are much lower than say a sat matinee

also kids week in London you can take a kid for free - just Google that
