Richmond or bust, for me. The Pinter has never knowingly not charged an arm and a leg for anything.

All done  Painless process, apart from the outrageous £3.80 'transaction fee'. £15 jobbies were very few, and that was 2-minutes into the general public offer. Saturday for me. |

£40 at the back of the stalls seems the most likely for me, though still pushing my usual spending limit by quite a bit. This is going to be a hot ticket though isn't it?

Offensively expensive at the Pinter. Some sub-par seats on for £65 as if thats sort of the budget price.

I don’t get how Omari Douglas gets these gigs. He’s a terrible actor.
His agent must go to all the right parties.

I liked Omari in Constellations and 'It's A Sin', but I didn't really like him in Cabaret.

You all are bad for my pocketbook! I wasn't going to book, but then remembered I had a small refund credit with ATG so put that towards a couple of rear stalls seats (Row Q) in Richmond - still more than I would usually pay but FOMO plus James Norton wins out!
(Currently good availability at Richmond and booking was quick/easy)

I liked Omari in Constellations and 'It's A Sin', but I didn't really like him in Cabaret. His character in Cabaret is such a wet lettuce, I feel like I don't want to judge him on it. I think he's a good actor but he's also a bit zeitgeisty right now like all the It's A Sin cast. Looking forward to (if I can afford it) seeing him in this. |

Honestly, being farther back might be a good thing if this production retains the intensity of some of the scenes. I was six rows back at the recent BAM production and had to look away several times despite having a strong constitution for blood and the like.

Booked for the Tuesday in Richmond, lets hope it's better in preview week than Who Killed My Father was.

Thanks for posting the link to the interview @juicy_but_terribly_drab . I found it really provocative and interesting, and for me, certainly made me want to go.
James Norton was terrific in Bug (paranoia and some shocks), so really looking forward to seeing him and Almeida wunderkind Luke Thompson.
Booked for Richmond due to the price differential, though I would normally like to see shows later in the run when the performances have matured.

ATG shows 30 March as sold out and 1830 (not 1900) performance so I think its a reasonable assumption it is planned or then. |

I’ve never heard of this book so decided to look up the plot synopsis and wow that’s… a lot!
I’m sure it’s a great book and well written but wow that plot is just a misery-porn conga. I’ve seen over the top angst fanfiction with similar levels of ‘oh and they’re abused, oh and they get hit by a car, oh and they get even MORE abused and then their whole family is exploded by a bomb and then they try and kill themselves several times’ (this isn’t what happens btw, but it’s along those lines)
