daniel deserves an MTBE (Member of the Theatre Board Empire) for his insider knowledge.

Any chance that venues like Liverpool or Bradford might be announced before or by Christmas? I want to go with my sister but Manchester is practically sold out and we could probably only go on a Saturday matinee. Which venues are doable to get to from Liverpool via train? Birmingham and Newcastle are probably your best options based on the current tour venues. Personally I’m hoping that Liverpool may get a mention later on. Though the tour website doesn’t mention anything about further venues being announced. We can but hope! I have a lot of family interested in this one any Cardiff WMC dates yet thanks 😊😊

Anyone know if the tour will be doing Bristol? Do hope so! Most likely one of the 2020 venues. If not, they'll definitely do Cardiff WMC and it's just across the Severn.

Sorry for the late reply but I finally found out it's the Theatre Royal it's going to be playing at.
Great, thanks for the info!
Expanding on my earlier 'take it with a pinch of salt' info about this tour playing the Theatre Royal in Glasgow, I've now been told off someone else from within the company that it is indeed playing here and it will also be the Christmas show for 2019 which the theatre has started doing the past 3/4 years. 4 weeks in December.

Thanks very much. That is good news as I'll definitely be in Glasgow over Christmas 2019 to catch this. I already have tickets for Newcastle in August, but no harm in going again (could even be a cast change after the first year).

Giving this a bump!
Was anyone at the 1st preview?
The last tour had such a buzz and a great freshness. Checking this one out for the 1st time in 3 weeks, can't wait. Have also subsequently booked for Manchesterford and Birmingham!

Hoping to hear some good reports about this. I’m hoping to hear ANY reports about this lol. Can’t believe for such a major tour, no one from the board has been yet. The last tour had the board buzzing from the 1st show. Guess the 25th anniversary version was brand new back then so there was more to talk about...

I'll hopefully be going in either February or some point in September. Edinburgh Festival Theatre still have some affordable-ish seats leftover so I might go for that, but Newcastle still has quite a good selection. Edinburgh is closer, but Newcastle has better availability. We'll just have to see how it goes.

I apologise, I've now just seen on the website that We Will Rock You is the Christmas show next year, looks like I need to have a word with the person who told me this was the Christmas show!

That's a shame it's not the Christmas show at the Theatre Royal, but not to worry. I'm sure I'll manage to arrange a visit if/when it goes to Glasgow.
