With Storm Eunice wailing outside while I write this, I’m sure I’m not the only one hoping for a change in the weather. With evening’s getting lighter too, it’s no wonder I’m dreaming of summer… just like Olaf!
Yes, I was lucky enough to see Frozen in the West End this week. I’ve been waiting a long time (I originally had tickets for previews back in August) and it certainly didn’t disappoint. Everything comes together to produce a beautiful piece of theatre - the costumes, the set, the music, the performers. I loved it! But you know what I loved more? My bargain seat.
Listen up for a top ticket-buying tip. You can get £25 seats to Disney musicals with Disney Day Seats. All you need to do is sign up for a Disney account and visit the website on Mondays at midday. Yes it’s popular so you might have to try a few times, but the rewards are huge. This is the view from our seats at Frozen this week - seats that can be worth up to £150 each!
In other news this week, there was more news about the musical adaptation of The Time Traveller’s Wife. 2:22 a Ghost Story is staying the West End. And no, it’s not ironic - it seems Alanis Morrissette’s Jagged Little Pill is coming to the West End later this year.
Happy ticket-buying, and stay safe!

I’m kind of a big deal
We all know I’m a big fan of Mischief Theatre, and it all started with Play That Goes Wrong. It’s a show for everyone - I don’t know anyone who hasn’t enjoyed it. So treat yourself to 50% tickets in March and have a good laugh!
There’s some really good seats included in the offer ranging from £21.50 to £35. You can even sit in the front row for just £26. It’s a small theatre though so don’t be afraid of the cheapest seats if you’re on a budget - the views are fine!
