Aladdin

I know I'm late to the party when it comes to purchasing tickets but just been looking for the upcoming production at the Empire. Bog standard seats £70 notes plus with prime one upward of £100. I'm sure it will be a cracking show but say family of 4/5 wanting good seats looking at £300 plus for couple of hours entertainment before you start on food and drinks. I'm guessing hard to justify for a lot of familes

Jafar too expensive that like.

 

[wigwams]

I chance I’d pay that. Total rip off for what it is

 

[OOOSH YEAH]

Rip off that like. You’d have been punched in the school I went to as well for being into Aladdin.

You don’t have to be a genie-us to know the prices would be high for this one

Very expensive night out is the old theatre there.

Went to the Lion King and that was eye watering. Made the mistake of letting the kids gets stuff in there too. If we go again we'll be bringing stuff in.

"Standard" seats for £70? I paid £21 each a week ago.

 

[Fishpie]

Yeh, I turned down getting tickets for The Lion King and Only Fools and Horses because of the prices.

Even the worst ticket with a 'limited view' in the gallery is £42 without the fees.

Yet again people are paying the prices and they will continue to rise.

Only when theatres are struggling to sell tickets you will see a reduction.

Doubt I will be going to many in the future.

You try and get 3/4 decent seats together for that price now. Plenty cheap ones up in the gods but for decent or good seats it's a fortune

 

[SAFC Wilks]

Better off going to The Royalty Theatre for family shows man, far cheaper and kids will still be loving it.

Oh no he won’t ……..

We took our eldest to the Lion King last year. Thought “it’s class this, we should do this more”. Then I thought about the ticket price, pizza & a couple of pints in the Isis first, interval drink & ice cream. Realised we’d spent about £250.

Great night, but my bairns season tickets cost £48. It’s a one off treat.

Whatever decision the OP makes, we’ll be behind him

Not in the queue for this show we won't!

I think you might be ruling out too many seats. Ours are marked "restricted view" but that's only because the very top corner of the stage isn't visible. It won't stop us seeing any of the show.
