Hi Everybody,

Went to see Cabaret matinee today at the Savoy Theatre, having never seen this in film or in the theatre l loved it. Will Young was superb. Got front row seat for £30 which was booked in advance, definitely worth a look.

Best wishes
Caz  :)

I thought th lowest price was £35? I really want to see this, I love the film. I was hoping they'd have the same pricing structure as for Legally Blonde wih £20 upper circle tickets but apparently not.

The stage musical is quite different to the film (actually there have been several versions pre & post the film) and is, in my opinion, better. Much more powerful, I hope this production does it justice, looking forward to finding out.

I am there on Thursday, also front row - booked them so long ago I can't even remember how much I paid.  I have only heard good things about this show and having never seen the film I have nothing to compare it to which makes it even more exciting for me.

I absolutely hated this when I saw it on tour, don't like to complain about performers but it contained one of the worst performances I have ever seen on stage. They sucked the life out of every scene they were in. Matt Rawle was good though.
