Booked for the first Saturday preview and discovered that I have enough loyalty points for a cheap ticket, so treated myself to the matinee on the 12t September too (muck-up matinee!!).
Plenty of seats left for later in in the run.

Tim Minchin has confirmed that they are having to make some changes to the material due to getting rid of the 5 revolves. It’s a shame we’re losing that staging as it was incredibly impressive.

Got myself a restricted view seat. Really hope those pillars aren't too in the way!

Sad but had a feeling that was coming.. may I ask where we can hear/read the comments.. He did an Instagram Q&A which is still visible on his stories. It’s the second question he answered. Sounds like they don’t want to change too much as it was so well received but the change of staging is going to mean there will be some small changes required. Also interesting to note that he puts it down to not having as big a budget as last time that they can’t do the same staging. |

Shame. Not often you get to see a scene in a musical where the cast ride a Waltzer.

As the waltzer wasn’t in the OV staging I wonder if that means they’re just changing things back to the pre-Broadway staging.

I'm in, but the payment system keeps failing! Oh no! How frustrating. That might explain why the queue is moving so slowly. I have to walk a friend's dog at 1, so I'll probably be out by the time my number comes up - if it does. |

Got really lucky in the queue, but while their payment system took my money, it has failed to book the tickets, and now the website keeps timing out...

"Message last updated: 12:16 PM
We are experiencing some technical issues and have paused the queue until this is rectified. Please bear with us, and thank you for your patience"
Oh great. This happened when they first went on sale as well!

It seems my seats are still in the basked, which is great. But the payment page keeps loading. So nerve wrecking!

Got very lucky with a low queue number. Had many issues selecting seats and then again paying, but it seems to have gone through with the booking showing in my future bookings on the website page.
