Anyone know if today is the PwC day for Woyzeck? My maths says yes but not heard anything.

Teaser trailer up now: Youtube Doesn't give too much away, but not expecting too much from a 35 second clip, I'm still undecided on whether I want to pay full price to see this.

I think the main interesting bit here is that it's been updated to Cold War Berlin.
We were dragged into a tedious performance of this by a local touring theatre when it stopped at our school (waaaay back in the 80s) and I hated it with a passion.
I'm giving it another chance now on the hope that you English will manage to make dull worthy German theatre actually interesting and because I really liked Boyega in Star Wars. But I also spent only £15 on one of the pillar seats.

Oh, I hadn't realised I'd booked a preview. I might see if I can get myself a better seat then!

Good to see there are more than 5 dates - I was a bit stuck for options otherwise that month!

Um, just went to the website and it says the 'virtual waiting room is full'?? Not seen that before. I'll refresh at 12, but I'm a bit worried now!!

Ooh, I did well for a change! No. 65, only took 5 mins to get in. Very pleased to report that stalls seats are available (which they didn't seem to be for R&G). Booked for Tues 16th, if anyone else is there that evening. Don't think I've ever been to such an early preview before, fingers crossed.

Done - dress circle on the Thursday (am afraid to go on Theatre Monkey's site to see how bad they are....but at least it's not a bench seat which is all I was offered for another date I tried.)

foxa, we're dress circle on the thursday too! One of us is going to have to contend with a pillar, but after 35 minutes in the queue that was the best I could find on the days we could do.
The website seemed to be particularly unhelpful today...

Yes, similar, Kathryn - I was in the queue, then thrown out, so we're quite far over to the side in the circle, but heck, it's a good price and NOT A BENCH.

I got the same 'waiting room full' notice about 11.50 but just refreshed booking page at 12 and was about 600 in the queue. Got P5 for one of only two days I could make. Not ideal but at least it's a chance to see how bad/good those pillar seats are, and for a tenner it's got to be ok value!

I had a great experience for Rosencrantz and Guildestern in the dress, no problems even with a supposed restricted view seat. I did want one of the £10 stall seats for Woyzeck, and I did find one but someone just beat me to it. As I can only justify one day in that week, I have gone for the dress again.

Picked up a Stalls pillar seat for one of the few dates I can make during the run (apart form the price, they have the advantage of putting you ahead of the charge for the ridiculous Old Vic loos come interval time!)

Missed the boat on cheap tickets for this I think... unless anyone knows of any offers or could advise on a good single seat?
