They are available at £17.50 but fair warning...absolutely dreadful view with a safety bar blocking your vision and a lighting rig in the way of some slips,I noted.I had to lean forwards all the time as sitting back in a normal position gives you zero view at all.Legroom very limited and real issues with sound balance.Very poor sight lines if others are leaning too,potentially.Unless you absolutely have to be there I would avoid.I know people will say it’s just a concert,but they are priced accordingly....check out actual photo views on SeatPlan and then decide....For me personally,I will be down in London for a week in late August and will ask at the BO half an hour before each show and see if there are ‘production seats’ remaining...we shall see?

Thats my plan of action. Got the £17.50 seats, but will be checking for production holds to be released daily. No doubt there will be a fair few. |

Jessie J performs On My Own
I know the orchestra are joining rehearsals today but is it REALLY too late to do a tiny bit of recasting. Am loving Jessie J’s soulful take on Eponine here and (maybe reined in a little) she’d be awesome in a concert staging.

I love her version - if she could remove some of the 'messing with it' she'd be great for this. She does have a beautiful voice.

She has a great voice if a bit understated in places for the show version.

I've sold my ticket for the last Friday performance  Face value + fees, no rip-off. Lots of tickets have gone up in different areas, although the prices are very high. The ticket I sold was row C stalls centre at £95 exclusive of fees and the like. There are row C stalls side for midweek matinee at £127.50 before fees. Over £30 more. (mutters darkly, this better be good!) Do you mind telling me where you sold your ticket? I’ve got an extra ticket for the 20th August due to someone not being able to attend but the box office won’t take it back...can only try on the day to give it to them and someone in the returns queue wanting it.... Thanks! |

Thanks! Twickets! It was only when I purchased one of the slips that came up recently I saw the T's & C's where it says no reselling. I emailed the box office who confirmed this but said resale at face value was OK, just not stupid money grabbing costs. The reply also said I could return the ticket to them for a day return sale if there were any takers. But Twickets worked for me. If you want me to send you a copy of the box office email pm me your email. |

Ah thank you, Ive put it on StubHub in the hope it goes and I've put it at face value so don't see why there would be an issue with box office (I am still attending anyway). Thanks for your help though |

Slightly off topic but - and I speak as someone who is not a fan of Les Mis - I have found it moving watching the protestors at Hong Kong airport singing Do You Hear The People Sing (it was on the news last night). It seems they also did this in June in the run up to the G20 summit.

Matt Lucas posted up on instagram a photo of a souvenir brochure i wonder if that is a combined picture book and programme or will they have a seperate programme. If it is combined it's probably going to be like 10 quid!!

Thank you so much, I've managed to book front row. I have been checking every day for weeks for decent tickets to come up and have been unlucky. Can I also add they seem to have added 3 seats on each side of the front row of the stalls for the majority of shows, incase anyone's wanting to be close up, although they are £97.50. |

Isn't Michael Ball off that day? I think that's why they held back. No idea why it is the earlier time though! |
