So looking forward to this - I have a ticket for Birmingham - roll on december!!!

Was listening to some of WOTW today and I can really see him doing the role exceptionally well.  Having always wanted to see this show and now being able to the icing on the cake is Rhyd being in it.

which venue Becky? there are still good seats available for most dates, you just have to check all the reputable ticket sellers. Let me know where you are looking for and I can add links here for you to look at

As it happens, with an arena musical like this you dont always want to be sitting close up, as there is so much you will miss by being in front/side blocks. WOTW has a huge screen across back of stage showing plotline and if you are close up you would miss the effect. Then there is pyrotechnics and special effects - that dont work as well visually if you are sat close stage side. Obviously at the front you can see actors faces, but they are screened onto back canvass so everyone in arena can see clearly.

I deliberately booked seats right up the back for the second Cardiff night so we could see everything.  I’m a bit nearer for Bournemouth though. As Pep says I don’t think you need to be front row for something on this scale.

Like you Rhian, I mixed my seat choices, one close, one side, one back - so I could see show from different viewpoints cheese

Do the prices vary according to where you buy the ticket? I’ll be going to one of the London venues if I can. Pepper would you mind posting links for those sellers? Thanks. grin
