Yes, a Saturday matinee will usually be Tanya Manalang, but she is off next week, so the matinee on Saturday 13th Feb will be Sooha Kim (same goes for the evening of Thursday 11th).

Last time I went on a Sat mat (much easier for me living way out of London) and that's what we've got booked again. I was unluckly enough not to see JJ Briones last time too - most disappointed.

I note that JJ Briones is off this week too so if i go on Saturday i will not see him. I'm sure his cover is very good but would like to see as many of the leads as poss. So guess i will wait abother couple of weeks and catch it last minute before it closes.

Damn - that's when I'm going. Who is she? She's the second cover - one of the few in the West End to get scheduled performances (as the alternate's alternate, so to speak ). I quite liked her portrayal when I saw it a few months ago - plays the youthful innocent/pure side well. She's closer in style to Eva than Tanya, to my eyes.

If anyone is interested in going to the final matinee, I cant use my ticket anymore.
Row B in the Stall, seat 19 (possibly 18, cant remember until I look at the ticket) face value £68.75, but willing to sell for £45.
Send me a message if anyone is interested.

I know what but I can't tell I think everyone will love it and will really approve.

I want to go in the next couple of weeks. What are the Box Office like if you turn up an hour or so before the show starts? Will they give you good seats cheaper or stick to the normal pricing?

I was there about an hour before curtain last night and was offered two seats in the centre of row f in the stalls for £40 each. I'm not sure how they would be priced normally, but it was implied that we weren't paying full price.

That does sound a good price for Row F. Maybe I will give it a go.

Read back a couple of pages for more info - however the short version is the show seemed to be recorded a couple of weeks back in the day without an audience. We don't publicly know whether this will be distributed or how.

Hey guys just incase any of you are unsure my name was There'sOnlyUs on the last forum. I still have a ticket for the final matinee on the 27th of February if anyone is interested? The ticket is for seat H16 in the upper circle.

Dayseated this morning. Brrrr!! Got there at 9:15, which is the same time I got there for a Monday performance in December, when I was 9th in the queue. Today I was around 35th! Another ten or so people had joined by 10:00. Two shows today, which may explain the longer queue, but also means the day-seat requests are spread out. By the time I was inside and could hear they were still selling front row - evening ran out before matinee, and after which they were telling people that they were selling the side stalls as day seats (I've no idea if this is general policy or just what's left today). I got B6, which is the outermost seat on the second row, but I suspect I was lucky because I was by myself - people ahead of me were getting seats on the ends quite a bit further back. edit to add: the Miss Saigon Twitter account have shared a photo of the Day Seat queue just before 10am:

Arrived at 2:28 this afternoon and managed a £37 standby ticket in the Stalls. S25 was the seat - perfect view and glad I managed to see it once more before it finishes!!
