53 replies

MarsyChristmas · 29/12/2005 20:52

Booking opens at midday on 9 January

Pick up a copy of the Evening Standard or listen to Heart 106.2 FM for details

Prices go from £15 to £30. Ballet, theatre and opera.

I will post again when they release the list of shows in the offer, but it tends to be most of them... including the biggies like Lion King and Mary Poppins etc.

From 9th Jan to 24th March.

get into London Theatre

Thanks Marsy - looks great! I've just registered for the e mail updates which took a while to go through. Do you think the site was suddenly busy with MNers?!

MarsyChristmas · 29/12/2005 21:15

lol probably.

They also do a kids go free promotion. It used to be one week in August, then became two and is now the WHOLE month. Fantastic!

Call rather than book online (site likes to crash when overwhelmed). Hold on (even if it takes half an hour) and be sure to get the show you want. Don't call a minute after noon. Call dead on if you can. It's very popular and the best shows go like that!

Thanks for the tips! We love the theatre (dahling!) but it can be so pricy so this is ideal.

Lines open next week.

Keep an eye out for details!

Just wanted to say that DH and I went to see Chicago last night after booking the tickets through the "Get into London theatre" website using the earlybird option. The seats were really good (towards the front of the lower dress circle)and cost £25 each rather than £45 and that's before the offers kick in properly on 9 Jan! The show itself was great and it was wonderful to have a night out in the West End that didn't cost an arm and a leg - thanks Marsy!

RTKangaSantaMummy · 03/01/2006 13:34

HOW MANY IS THE MAX NUMBER OF SEATS ETC?

MarsLady · 03/01/2006 20:21

There isn't a max as far as I remember RTKM.

Was just about to bump this for you... but I see that there is no need lol

MarsLady · 03/01/2006 20:21

You're welcome MissPiggy

RTKangaSantaMummy · 03/01/2006 20:26

we went as a group of 33 from kangaboy class and their families

RTKangaSantaMummy · 03/01/2006 20:27

ML

so is the price cheaper at 12 noon or better seats etc.

MarsLady · 03/01/2006 20:29

Not cheaper... better and you are more likely to get the show that you want on the date that you want it!

Want to see Scrooge. DD1's penpal and mum are coming down to London in the half term so I'm hoping to get a good show to take them to.

RTKangaSantaMummy · 03/01/2006 20:31

it finishes soon though

I think next week

RTKangaSantaMummy · 03/01/2006 20:31

MarsLady · 04/01/2006 16:28

Don't know. But I check every time I come online.

I'm hoping it will be out today so that I can decide what to book. As long as it's not the morning of the 9th lol.

RTKangaSantaMummy · 04/01/2006 16:46
