Is this show completely sold out? I am wondering how some are able to buy tickets, I looked at the website a few times and nothing was available across multiple dates. This may not help if you're based far from London, but the Donmar Warehouse handles returns fairly well and will put whatever they have on sale each day around 10 am when the Box Office opens. Of course availability will vary depending on how "hot" a production is, but even when performances appear to be sold out you may get lucky if you hover on the website a few minutes before 10 am and frequently refresh the page.

DONMAR DAILY RELEASE At the Donmar, we want to create as many opportunities as possible for people to see productions in our intimate theatre. DONMAR DAILY RELEASE means there are tickets available for our productions every day online.
An allocation of tickets will be released every morning, Monday – Saturday (excluding Bank Holidays), at 10am for performances seven days later. These are only available online, subject to availability and may not be available for some performances.

This totally pased me by last month, but I was pleasantly suprised to find quite a few 16-35 tickets still available when I logged on to my Donmar Warehouse account just now, so I've nabbed one.

So how does it work with those 16-35 tickets? There’s still some available while the regular tickets sold out almost immediately. Does there come a point where they put unsold ones on general sale? Or do they just sell them as dayseats?

My guess would be dayseats. But it depends on how those tickets are sponsored and what the sponsors let the Donmar do when they´re unsold.

There's no way I could schedule a trip during this run, but fingers crossed this transfers to the West End for another run!

It’s going to transfer, given how quick this sold out.

I booked maybe ten days after the public on-sale date (because I simply forgot to book earlier), and at that point, 16-35 tickets aside, there were less than fifty tickets available across the entire run, and it took a fair amount of digging to find what I wanted at a performance that worked for me. Unless the reviews are uniformly dreadful, which I think is very unlikely indeed, this is going to have a life after the Donmar.

There's a possibility it's already been booked in somewhere with some gaps in schedules at many small theatres in 2025, but we'll see. Would definitely suck to have it just stop at the Donmar and nowhere else.
I get the feeling they started future plan talks like a shot considering a majority of seats were just gone a day in.

Ooh this has me anxious, I've got a ticket for the Monday which is now the new first preview! If they know this far in advance that they need an extra day, they might need to take more extra days... Were people with first preview tickets able to rebook, or is it properly sold out?

The Donmar always cancel the first preview of their musicals - it's nothing new.
I don't know why they bother putting it on sale!

Quite an easy exchange for another date - gave them a ring and they gave me a ticket for January (an even better seat).

I know people love the thrill of the first preview, experiencing something before anyone else etc, but you'd have to be mad to book the first few previews. My rule now is now to book anything for the first week, then I don't end up getting rescheduled to a seat I wouldn't have chosen on a date I didn't want. It shouldn't be like this, but sadly it is.

This is what I get for not paying attention.
Saw a replica production of it in Seoul earlier this year and despite the language barrier absolutely loved it. I will be refreshing the performance I can go to ridiculous amounts.

But Next to Normal got tepid reviews, you said adamant on here it wouldn’t transfer but it did. Hmmm I don’t think the reviews were tepid. Also the transfer of that relied on Cassie L saying yes- and she took a lot of convincing, so I was quite correct when I said at the time that it may not transfer.
