Theatre tickets (London)

[Ill Advised]

Where would be the best place to get a last minute ticket for a show in London?

Still never seen Mamma Mia :o

In London tomorrow for the one day, then travel back the next day after a dull conference

So have from about 2pm on Sunday to do something on my own (as stupid work sent me down here alone)

So I thought a show might be the best idea??

The theatre itself (prince of wales for mamma mia?)usually sells returned tickets on the day. I'd go there at 2pm and ask when they go on sale.

Otherwise there are loads of ticket booths around Leicester Square.

My mum did this when she was in New York and got tickets Chicago for half-price.

Might give that a go then

Is Mamma Mia still at the Prince Edward? if so, what is the nearest tube?

It would have been cheaper to fly direct instead of going via New York.

I think so. Covent Garden's probably best.

EDIT: Oops, I got confused and was sending you to the Lion King. Follow Lolly's directions below.

It's at the Prince Of Wales now, so Piccadilly is probably closest, or Leicester Square.

Piccadilly Circus I would say...

[lolly]

Piccadilly would certainly be more practical anyway, wouldn't it? Isn't Leicester Square only on one line?

nope, northern and pic

[lolly]

Oh right. I must admit I don't even really know where Leicester Square station actually IS. I just either use Covent Garden or Piccadilly and walk in to Leicester Square. In central London they are so close together. When I first started visiting London I must have got the tube all the time for stations that were only about half a mile apart.

piccadilly would be best, definitely. leicester sq is handy for covent garden but i always forget which exit i'm coming out of.

[Kitty Kat]

i do the same with piccadilly circus. i've just about mastered oxford circus.

Piccadilly I just walk around and around until I find the Virgin records exit :D

Thank You

Just watching Muriels wedding on uktv gold so must be fate to go see Mamma Mia

[David]

When it comes to Piccadilly Circus I just end up either walking everywhere or getting the bus to/from Victoria!

[Ill Advised]

I need a plan as to what to do with the rest of my time there

Any suggestions?

HIRE AN ESCORT

[Ill Advised]

The thought had crossed my mind

[David]

SHOP, I mean doesn't everyone who comes to London come to look at pretty shops?

[Madison]

Go to Abercrombie and Fitch.

HIRE AN ESCORT

We haven't actually negotiated a fee for your next visit yet, did you want me to give you a similar service to last time?

[Ill Advised]

Do the shops all shut at 5 (with it being a sunday)

This will only be my 3rd visit to London

[Ill Advised]

Go to Abercrombie and Fitch.

Oh yes

Where is it :horny:

[Madison]

Saville Row. Go to Piccadilly Circus and head west.

[Ill Advised]

Thanks again

Well off to bed, early train to catch
