Saw RAGAD for the second time today and it's much improved since I saw it in Chichester. The production has a great pace and energy and has really found its feet. I love the set, lighting and music. Very atmospheric. Thought Jamie Parker and Samuel Barnett were just wonderful and I loved Chris Andrew Mellon's performance as the Player King.

Very, very funny and thought provoking. Fantastic. I'll be seeing it again.

If anyone loves Stoppard, then Sedos are performing Arcadia at the Bridewell in a couple of weeks. I've seen some of their productions and they are very good - they did Stoppard's Hapgood last year and it seems to be the same team who are doing Arcadia.  

Anyway, details at www.sedos.co.uk. The show runs 19-23 July.

I'd like to get day seats for this. Any ideas how earlier I'd need to queue?

Turn up at 10am, or even later. I got one for Flare Path (much more popular than this) at 10:45 no probs, and that was after the glowing reviews came out.

Saw this on Saturday and bloody loved it. Thought Barnett, Parker & Mellon did a cracking job. Annoyingly I felt rather ill during the last half, which ruined my enjoyment of it slightly but I refused to leave (given I was enjoying it so much and was 3rd row). If I could, I'd go back but alas... no time/funds. Parker's "we cross our bridges when we come to them" was a joy. He was a delight at stage door. We missed Barnett, sadly.

Thinking of day ticketing this tomorrow or Friday. Will report back on success or lack thereof.

Saw this yesterday. Got a dayseat in central row B for £21, which was an excellent view, at about 11am. There were a few empty seats in the front row, so I imagine you can turn up much later than that and get a dayseat.

I very much enjoyed it - I've never seen R&GAD before, so it was new to me.
