50quid tickets slightly restricted view end of row B royal circle. Hoping view will be ok?? Excited for this! Normally a total bargain. Changes for every show - depends where speakers go, how large the set is, if anything is played to that side, but you have done very well, I'd say. Same! Can’t wait 😊 Ignore- some panicking about not receiving a confirmation email tell me that they were actually £82.50 so to be fair I’ll be expecting better!

Just listened to the Broadway CD (old-school birthday present) of this for the first time and having read the plot,I am blown away by this.Seriously am already humming three or four of the catchy tracks.Think this will attract fans of Jamie,Heathers etc.Also has a dreamy,folksy quality similar to Waitress and CFA in some ways.

Looking forward to seeing this in London on New Year’s Day. I loved it in NY when I stumbled across it during previews, knowing nothing at all about it at the time. I do love the added thrill of seeing something without any knowledge, preconceptions and the like: even more of a buzz when it turns out to be a great experience!

I remember going to see it off-broadway knowing nothing about it and being wowed. It declared its broadway intentions that day. Such a great show which I’ve seen three times (and done standing room every...single....time....). Looking forward to seeing it from an actual seat!

Going to spend some time to try and find a date with the Royal Circle box available...hopefully it's £50 or less in there. I think it's a reasonable view for the price compared to being higher or further back and the toilet is a nice bonus!

What is the cheapest hotel (not hostel) to stay in near this theatre for two adults, two beds for a Friday to Sunday stay? I'm trying to plan but I have no idea Depends how near you want to be (walking distance?), but you're probably trying to book way too early. You'll probably need to go with a chain hotel if you want to fit that many people in a room. Most London hotels have small rooms, a lot of the doubles barely even fit the double bed. You might be able to find a family room in a Holiday Inn Express (double bed plus sofa bed) or similar that will work for you. There are a few in central London, but it will be a lot cheaper if you're willing to get the tube out or DLR to Zone 2. The Docklands tends to be cheap at the weekend if you've picked a weekend when there's nothing on at the Excel, since most of their trade is business travel during the week. Watch out for when the chains have their sales much nearer to the time when you want to travel.

Monkey hits it on the head as ever - sat front row for All About Eve And whilst the bar was a little frustrating, it didn’t impede my enjoyment really. I’d probably go third row or further back to avoid any restriction by rail

So its a bit of a weird viewing angle as predicted. How about the grand circle?

today Luke Bayer tweeted that he's moving back to London (presumably for a job)- just a coincidence that it comes a few days after Pasek & Paul were in town doing Evan auditions?

I’m warming to this idea a little...as long as they direct his own interpretation out of him rather than BP’s handwringing. Fine for him, not for people to copy wholesale.

I have not seen him in a show so i can't really fully judge but i will say that i find him a little OTT and try hard in some of the clips and concert performances i've seen online in a very stage school type of way. However, he has an excellent voice indeed.
Of course it could be for another show or indeed for DEH but a cover. We'll see.

I am so happy this show has had success already with ticket sales I am going in November and it seems to be nearly sold out. I can see this being popular I wonder if the Prom will be the next come over as I love the score. I am just happy to be seeing who will be cast for Dear even Hansen

West End Wilma: You have been found – London’s DEAR EVAN HANSEN star announced - Brandon Mariñas So not British at all then. If true I will be fuming. They literally made a point of saying it will be a British Evan and no doubt hundreds of more than capable british actors auditioned.

Google initial results for Brandon Marinas returns a young actor from California, but there is another Brandon Marinas from London.

He could have been born in this country for all we know. Anyway it doesn’t really matter because this is totally fake.

He is from Leyton, trained at Trinity Laban
