I've just booked, but each day seems only to have the worst tickets available - it's inconceivable that all others have sold! It's a choice between Upper Circle or Restricted View Grand Circle. I've gone for Grand Circle, but will try and upgrade at some point when more tickets are available.

Yeah, it's crap.

They must only release a small amount of priority tickets. Probably better seats available tomorrow.

Have tickets for the first night (26th March) but we will not now be going having bought tickets for the 10th April instead.
So I have two tickets for the 26th March in the Upper Circle (C23&24) available for just £50 (Full combined price: £64) ...the tickets have been emailed to me already. let me know via pm if interested..

Bought restricted view for the 30th. Hopefully the view's not too bad.

At least the tickets were only 20 quid, more cash to spend on proper tour tickets. :)

I'll figure out tomorrow.
I'll ask my daughter if wants to join. Anyway, I don't have big expectations for a musical.
Obviously, she wouldn't like MK but that's a wonderful trip to the beautiful Scotland ;-)
I'll tell her she should be relieved, last time in Scotland I had Bob Dylan too.  :lol

You can get the top price tickets for later in April.
I managed to get some good ones for the 12th.
Shame about the £49.50 price per ticket!

Done!   I hoped for 9th April, but it said there was no online booking for that date, so tried 10th April and was successful - Grand Circle Row C, seats 13 and 14  :)

Had some amount of trouble when I entered my code in a couple of minutes before 10:00 just to see what the process was like and when 10:00 came it automatically jumped to the next stage and skipped the part where I entered the code!

Eventually managed to book and got the 10th, Grand Circle, row B, seats 11 and 12.  Be right in front of you Val!

Just heard some news from an old friend on FB regarding tickets for the musical.  She says after having trouble booking she phoned up the Lyceum and was informed that the first half of the whole run had been set aside for ’Corporate Sponsors and their friends’.  >:(

I'll try last Saturday which is also the last day in the hope when the tour is announced it might coincide with the start of the tour...

It's just a bet, a blind bet.

I'll be in for this one :)

Hi  ;D
So the premiere was announced  for March 23rd and we can buy tickets for the 26th...
I surely missed something.  :hmm

Unless their plan is to put on sale premiere tickets last minute tomorrow -as a strategy -  we're done.

So I'll probably try the first available Saturday  ;)

Yep, unless 23rd appears when they go onsale I'm going for the first Saturday night as well, make a weekend of it. :)

It says is just for press...
You might get lucky, now and then

I couldn't buy anything as I'm out on travel (long weekend in Spain) and there was too much fields to complete to order tickets to do it walking with my phone so I'll check again on Wednesday at work, if there is still anything available :(

I can't remember but I think it was the Grand Circle I was in last August in the Lyceum, albeit quite far back.  I took a few photos to pass the time before the show started and thought you might be interested.  The view of the stage was actually much better than it looks on the photos.

Thanks for posting the lovely photo's DMG.  :clap
Am personally looking forward to the show itself and being engulfed in MK music albeit others performing it.....
