Thanks daniel. Yeah as soon as the man appeared, he was halfway across the screen, unlike waiting on the left-hand side as usual. I wonder how it works, whether they pick twenty, then see how many people want two or one ticket and then let more people through.

So folks, still can't believe I'm seeing this. Can anyone tell me how much the programme and brochure are at the show?

It will be my third time seeing the show on the 3rd June however I haven't received the usual 28 days to go email. Should have received it by now. Anyone experience this and should I email to make sure my tickets will be delivered?

Anyone experience this and should I email to make sure my tickets will be delivered? I'm seeing it 2 weeks today for the first time and I haven't received any sort of reminder email since I booked my tickets yonks ago! Original emails says tickets will be dispatched 2 weeks before the show so I'll give them a call the week before if I've not got anything.

Can anyone tell me where the men's toilets are in the Stalls. I'm sitting on the left hand side in the higher numbers if that makes a difference.

I'm due to go on 18/19 May and got my tix on 6 May, if that helps.

Corridor down that side of the theatre. Can get to it via the fire exit at the front left as you look at the stage. Go through the curtain, turn right, it's in that corridor there. Also can be got to by going down the main stalls stairs, it's to the left at the bottom of the main staircase. Brilliant. Thank you!

OMG I just managed to buy tickets for this! So excited. I had totally given up, checked just for fun, and I found tickets available. Oh. My. God!

Just seen it. Too tired to put my thoughts down and I will only post vague things here and head to the spoiler thread when I do.
One thing though, after Part One I got a keep the secrets badge as there was a man with a big box of them. I thought I'd get another one after Part Two but no man/woman with a box to be seen. Maybe I should have picked up two the first time. Long story short, if anyone's going in the future and could pick me up a left hand one, that'd be amazing.

I've seen it twice now, and they've only ever given them out at the end of part one, though I guess if you ask for one at the end of part two they might give you one. I'll make sure to see if they're handing them out at the end of part two when I'm seeing it in June with the new cast.

I was also there today. Too many thoughts to write down, and most of them spoilerific, but sufficed to say it lives up to the hype in terms of theatricality and design, but the script seemed a bit weak to me. Some excellent performances, some quite dodgy. I certainly wasn't disappointed by it, but it wasn't quite the mind-blowing experience it's made out to be.

A intrigued to see hear actors you didn't rate!

I'm sure my thoughts will make their way to the spoiler thread soon enough!

I've just checked and all three of mine are left wings, so maybe they do give them out again after part 2? I'll make sure to ask next month.

So I checked again and there are now better seats available for the performances I booked. I'm ready to pay more. Should I email the box office? Will they exchange my tickets or is it not possible? Has anyone tried this before?

Has anyone tried this before? I went to see the show in March originally with a ticket for the Grand Circle. I found a ticket on their site for the stalls for the same performance so bought it outright and then called up ATG and got a refund on my original ticket

Yeah, if you're in a hurry to leave the theatre, it can be easy to miss the badges. It's worth looking around before picking your exit, you're looking for one that has an usher with a fairly small cardboard box.
