4.5 hours later. I got 2 for 23rd December. But there was literally nothing left. Do you think DMT kept some back for General sale tomorrow, or they put everything they had on sale at once? I'm sure there will be more tomorrow and they have kept some back for general sale plus rumour of more dates. When I went on on Monday with DMT+ it didn’t look like they’d held tickets back, not like some presages with only 1/2 the seats showing certainly. They can add a few weeks on though! |

I was hoping they would announce a 2 week extension while I was in the queue. There are bound to be loads of returns depending on local lockdowns when it comes around so I’ll keep checking nearer the time.

I went for the £20 in the Upper Circle row A side view. It's restricted view, but hopefully it won't be too terrible. Has any of you sat there before? If so, your comments would be appreciated.

Have a look at this site: seatplan.com/london/sondheim-theatre/It's a plan of the seating with some pictures of the view from said seat. Not all seats have a picture but you'll get a rough idea from other seats around you 😊 |

I'm not sure many of the tickets will have been bought by people outside London - not many are travelling at the minute. I suspect it will be mostly those who live within commuting distance of London, who are less likely to have different lockdown rules to London itself. |

I sat there in January for the new staged version. Legroom not great, if I remember there is a ledge, but great for the money! You may miss whoever is stood your side but the leads tend to be in the middle. |

Managed to forget about the 12pm on-sale time, and now 7,556 in the queue!
Not today, I'm going to bank on some returns closer to the time.

I got in at no. 212 and am now no.71 in the queue, so slightly hopeful!

The extra two weeks are on sale. DMT+ membership bypasses the main queue.
There is cast information for the extension but it went by quickly, so please correct me if this is wrong.
JOJ on Tuesday evening, Wednesday matinee and Saturday matinee.
MB away on Wednesday 20th and Wednesday 27th (evenings), no mention of who the cover is.

I spotted that trick yesterday and used it today as ironically the date I wanted only came in the extension (hopefully the weekend before I go to Paris so fitting!) I got straight in, found a seat and after a struggle at checkout was done by 12:07. I now have a JOJ and a Boe show booked, same as last time! |

You may miss whoever is stood your side but the leads tend to be in the middle. Good to know you sat there and the view was ok. At the end of the day this is more of a concert and as you say, the leads tend to be in the middle. Thanks for reassuring me! |

Took me 15 mins to get the booking page to load at 12. Cost me several thousand places. Gave up at 3:30 with over 6,000 still in the queue with "last few tickets remaining". Will keep checking for returns. |

The reviews on that site seem to suggest that it's okish for the price even if you miss a corner To be honest, with a show like this, you're not likely to miss a huge amount (maybe some projections or something happening upstage). At least you can say you were one of the few that got seats (even with the extension 😱). Hope you enjoy it 😁 |
