We Have Man for All Seasons Tix

After a tip off from a lovely man at the play's production office that I've been corresponding with that tickets would be going on sale today, I called and got tickets to A Man for All Seasons in London. (That squeeing you hear would be me.) The lovely [livejournal.com profile] justacat and [livejournal.com profile] shayheyred will be going with me (as well as a local friend) and we'll be seeing Martin on Tuesday, January 31 and Wednesday, February 1.

Yay!

Boring details for anyone else interested in seeing the play: it'll be running at the Haymarket Theatre Royal, near the Picadilly tube. The theatre box office number is 0870 901 3356 and you can also book tickets on ticketmaster.co.uk.

The plan is for us to arrive on Jan. 29 and leave on Feb. 2. Any local fen interested in meeting up? [livejournal.com profile] bluespirit_star?

Oh yes! We'll have to do another get-together.
Yay!
And congrats on the tix. :-)

Definitely! And it looks like Sandy is coming. (She's got a ticket, so she'd better. *g*)

Congratulations! Happiness is seeing Martin, live! (and in such good company, too)

Definitely happiness all round. Can't wait.

And have a great time seeing him yourself, BTW.

I plan to! I'm with Shay - can barely contain the squee - it keeps exploding out...

Yep, me too. I've been walking around with a big grin for the past three days. My husband keeps thinking I'm up to something, when in fact I'm merely brimming with the squee. ;-)

(Just felt the urge.)

You and me both.

I spent all yesterday explaining to anyone who'd listen who Martin Shaw is. And sending pictures. And generally bouncing around the office.

It's coming to Glasgow in November and I'm hoping to go then. Can't wait. Must be touring before hitting the West End.

I've been going back and forth between seeing a stop on the tour or holding out for London dates, but decided in the end to hope for London. Thankfully that paid off.

And if you're planning on seeing the show in Glasgow, you might want to call for tickets soonish. I called the Bath theatre last week (Bath is the last stop before London) and they were down to only restricted view seats for almost every performance.

*jumps up and down on your behalf*

I am *very* excited. Not only will it be great to see Shaw, but AMfAS happens to be a play I adore. Add to that, Shaw playing More at this stage in his career is an utterly perfectly matching of actor and role.

Can't wait. I've been insufferable ever since Thursday. :-D
