Phantom of the Opera tickets

29 replies

AthenaWhite · 30/12/2021 09:40

I was supposed to be seeing Phantom today at 2 30, already had to cancel once due to Covid. I had the booster on Thursday and had an awful reaction, the thought of a long train journey and sitting in a theatre is a bridge too far.

So, would anyone like two tickets for todays performance at 2 30? They are e tickets so I'm assuming I can just email them on. No money needed, I can't make it and it's too late to exchange.

@AthenaWhite hope you feel better soon. A very kind thing to do for someone. 💐

Fed up of feeling unwell. Very much regretting the booster and wish I had left it for a while. I was just, just recovering from Covid and now feel back to square one. Thank you for the kind thoughts Smile

What a shame, hope you feel better soon. We were due to see it last year but it was cancelled due covid. Lovely of you to offer to pass them on, hope someone can benefit. Am assuming the show is in London so no good for me as I'm in the far North but it's a lovely offer.

Hello @AthenaWhite, I am sorry you are unwell. I would be interested in these tickets please if still available, I live in zone 4 so can easily get there and DD1 (14) is v interested as it would be her first ever musical. Smile

Aw I'm sorry you're rough. If it wasn't a 4 hour drive I'd have bitten your hand off.
Try your local Facebook market place or do you have friends who'd like the tickets?

That's fabulous.

DM me your email and I'll email you the tickets. They have my email address on but that's it. Google the theatre to see about arrival times, Covid protocol etc.

Oh AthenaWhite I'm so sorry that you are feeling so unwell. What a shame. It's such a lovely thing you are doing, hope you and your daughter Smallinthesmoke have a wonderful time. I'm going there too today!

That's so lovely of you @AthenaWhite!

Please let us know how you get on/if your daughter enjoys it @Smallinthesmoke (& can I suggest a wee bunch of flowers/box of chocs for @AthenaWhite?)

We should have been travelling from the East Midlands to London yesterday for a theatre visit. I got in touch with the ticket agency and they have issued me e-vouchers for the full cost valid for a year. You may already have given your tickets away but if not, worth checking out.

That's kind of you to offer your tickets. Phantom is brilliant. I went to see it in November and actually postponed my booster until the following week, just in case I felt ill after it.

Smallinthesmoke · 30/12/2021 10:29

Thank you very much @AthenaWhite, really grateful and have DMed
And would not be at all offended if you preferred to try the voucher route as suggested- we haven't got dressed yet so no problem till we set out! it has worked to get DD1 out of bed which is always a bonus Grin

Mamamia1010 · 30/12/2021 10:30

That's really none of your business @queenofcauliflower

Glad your daughters first musical will be so spectacular @smallintheamoke

Thank you, all safely arrived and causing much excitement in the smoke household.
How rubbish for you to have covid and then a reaction to the booster. Get well soon! Flowers thanks again, we will report back
