ATG card holder and didn't get an email either, but got a heads-up from a friend. Most sites say from 14 Feb, but as others have mentioned, searching for the event shows first preview on 13 Feb - with just one seat in the Grand Circle remaining! Is that availability genuine? Or have they not put everything on sale yet for that preview?

I had a look at the WoS site, out of interest. Being a bit slow, I thought it strange that all these odd seats had already been booked, until it twigged that they have a cunning way of avoiding the single seat problem. If you want to book just one ticket, seats 1 and 3 are widely available, but 2 is automatically taken off sale and shows as unavailable. Same on the far end of the row. I've never seen it done like that before. And I think I've worked out what's happening on 13 February. In anticipation of it being announced that Samantha Barks will reprise her role, our @theatremonkey has obviously booked the entire theatre just for himself, so he can get it out...of his system!

Lowest prices are on the ATG Tickets site. Only available for Theatre Card members at the moment. Site says tickets from £10 but like Dr.Tom I can only find £15 +.
Front stalls tickets £72.50 for the February dates I checked. Row B seems to be the furthest forward available so I booked a central seat there. Happy with that price.

I wouldn't be surprised if ATG are expecting it to only run a year to 18 months before taking it out on tour.
In regards to Moulin Rouge, I imagine they've pencilled the Piccadilly for sometime in 2021 but have the option for a get out clause if another theatre became available or Pretty Woman ends up extending.

That's true but WOS only have a limited allocation of seats whereas ATG themselves have almost every seat to choose from. I had notifications of a pre-sale from three different agencies but nothing from ATG.

The ones in B are being taken out to make room for the security guard on either side of the stage. Looks like you made it Monkey! 😂

It will probably be Sam Barks and then a star/stunt casting for Edward. If the stars align we might get Andy Karl and Orfeh to come over for a short bit.

Moulin Rouge is definitely going in from March 2021.
I quite like some of the music from this. Well, Samantha Barks numbers anyway but the whole production looks so cheap, and we are sure to get an even more basic version here.

Amber Davies wouldn’t be an awful choice. Not at all. And really quite ‘now’. Exactly. Plus she’s definitely got the chops for it and she definitely looks like a Vivienne. She’d be a bigger box office draw than Samantha Barks, although it would be nice to see Barks open a musical on home turf.
