Yes, Lucy is GREAT, the best Donna Ever!!!!!!!!
Friday the 29th of September will be a great show with Lucy Harris and Suanne Braun as Tanya, nobody can beat those two.
Plus Jazz will be there, with me and my son Hugo who is 12 years old and skipping school just for Lucy and Suanne. Trust me it is so worth it. Plus what do kids learn in school on a Friday afternoon?

Maybe Suanne will take her place.
I HOPE NOT because I want Suanne as Tanya.

 (Hubby is out exercising again...so I get the computer.) That is too funny. I can't believe that was you. I will have to tell my mom. We were up in Dress Circle Row A and spent our time before the show doing some people watching down below. We said something about you sharing your Maltesers and my mom said maybe you were a friend of his. I also saw the Maltesers "toss" at the end. (A Malteser night...but oops, I bought Minstrels instead!) I noticed two people on the far left (also front row) that did not return for Act 2. I was thinking "what a waste...wish we could move down there right now." Also saw some people down from you on your right with their shoes off and feet up on the bar in front of them. Hope they did not have smelly socks or the poor orchestra would have suffered. Absolutely LOVED the show. Words cannot describe it. Lucy stole the show. Like I said before, it makes me a little scared to see it without her as Donna. I know my mom loved it...I called her to make sure she got home alright (after all the airport fiasco that weekend.) The first thing my stepdad said was he heard how good the show was...I am guessing she talked his ear off on the way home. I would LOVE to exchange my tickets...but like I said, I had to fit someone else's schedule. It's a bummer...but my sis is coming to visit soon and I will ensure we get Fri matinee tickets. I don't care if I have to take her there straight from the airport...no stopping. She'd better pack light! I just checked for tickets on the 8th of Sept and found one in row A. My credit card is calling me from my purse...but the hubby would freak when he found out and then know I have become obsessed. I am trying to hide that from him. ;-) He is already a little irritated because our boys are walking around singing "Honey, Honey" and "Dancing Queen", but I can't help it if their brains are like sponges and they know all the words. I was already an ABBA fan from childhood and was exposing the boys to "Dancing Queen" when they were only two. (Hubby didn't like that much either.) Better go now...will keep checking your site and pray that I somehow get Lucy on the 28th. Kris ;D

September the 8th, here I go again!!!!!!!!
You are right Jazz, Lucy and Rachel, that is going to be mad, mad, mad.
What if Suanne Braun gets to be Tanya, we will probably faint during Chiquittita and Dancing Queen.
Come on kris get that last ticket.

Sorry to post this lame question here...but could not find a more suitable place. (Actually, I am too impatient to look for a thread that might be better.) ;D
I have tickets for the 28 Sep show...as I have said before. (I know...shut up already.) They are not the best seats though. Can I swap them for better ones when I get there that evening? Will they allow that?
Also, I AM going back on Friday, 10 Nov. What is the best place to get tickets? Shall I just go get them at the box office, or is there a web site that you recommend? I checked the theatre's site, but the seats they offered were not the greatest. Tried ticketmaster and found two seats in row B. I would have bought them on the spot, but I am going with ppl from work and don't know for sure how many are coming yet.
Anyway...if anyone could help, I would be most greatful! ;D

The best way to get good tickets is either go to the box office or call them at 0870 850 0393. I like row A right next to the conductor. You can ask for row A seats 24,23,22,21,20 or seats 28,29,30 and 31. To see Tasha better you want to go with seats 28,29, etc. For Lucy I prefer 24, 23, etc. |

Row B isn't too bad ....i've sat there...and i think on an odd occasion i've said i've been so desperate to go...that i'd even go and sit at the back of the dress circle..but no one seems to believe i would ever do that Oh MY Cherrrrrrrrrrrr....i'm going to see MM on Sept 29....well Lucy's on..so is Tasha...i know Gareth will not be AaW that day am i'm like 94% sure Suanne will be Tanya... |

YES...I am so going in November...on the 10th...I repeat...on the 10th! Especially because it's a Friday, I'm off that day, it's a Friday, I have someone to go with me...and did I mention that it's a Friday? One of my other neighbours asked me today when I am going next because she wants to go too. I was thrilled because she asked in front of the hubby and he was looking at me like "sure, it's OK." So I told her to get me the money ASAP and I will get her ticket along with my co-workers for the 10 Nov show. He seems to accept that I am now willing to be the MM tour guide for this area of the UK. Haha! At least for the people that I live around and work with...any family that visit...random strangers that I meet at Tesco or Co-op, etc. Although all the people I work with that said they would go with me in Nov keep flaking out one by one. First there were like five people that wanted to go and now I am down to two...but all I need is one person to go with to make it a valid trip (in the eyes of my hubby). Besides, he will not know if we are a group of two or ten...right? (Unless he starts reading this forum...then I'm in trouble.)  Next week I go out of town and I am bringing my work laptop. So I can post as much as I want since the computer HOG will not be there. ;D Thanks you two for the info on the seats. I guess I am stuck with my not-so-great seats for the 28th. I don't care though. At least I will be there...not-so-good seats and no Lucy as Donna.  But that is OK...she will still be there though. I will try to lurk at the stage door. I'll ask more about it later. I probably won't have the guts to talk to anyone or ask for autographs...unless I have a few drinks first. HA! Later... ;D |

I am so freakin excited right now. I just bought my tickets for 10 Nov and they had front row. Hahahahahaha. I had a stupid grin on my face the whole afternoon at work. You were so right Jazz...called the box office instead of dealing with any of the "middle man" or web sites. I needed four and was worried because the web site kept giving me row M on the side. Now I am in row A...seats 21-24! Did I tell you that it is a Friday matinee that I am going to?
Anyway...have to go pick up some Chinese takeaway for dinner. The kids are at a birthday party so we can enjoy it ourselves for once...only about an hour left though.
;D
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Yes, also the 28th...so I have TWO to look forward to. I never thought I would get to say that. I am still grinning like a goof. I pity the people I am going with. I asked my neighbour if she is excited to go on the 28th...and she just said "sure". HA! She will not know what hit her. I am still praying that we somehow get Lucy. Maybe Helen will have a function to attend on the 28th...like a party, wedding, dental appointment. I can still pray to get a Lucy night even though I was goofy enough to buy tickets for a Thursday night. UGH At least Nov will make up for it. Now lets see if I can go in October. Have to see which one of my friends is up for it. Hubby just realised yesterday that I am going again twice. (He does not pay much attention to detail.) He thinks that is a little excessive. Well...just wait! (Evil laugh) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Still grinning... And by the way...I "accidentally" hacked my hair off yesterday, so I needed something to make me feel better today...and the next day...and the next... until it grows back out.
