How quickly do the £25 day tickets for Hairspray normally get snapped up (assuming they're still doing them - the website says so). My friend and I are thinking of going either side of the Christmas period and I'm trying to decide whether to book in advance or take a chance on the day.

The last time I went the £25 tickets were for the front row ~ i waited about 45 minutes ~ best bet is maybe to queue when there is a matinee and evening (if you can) so you have more choice ~ as close to the centre as possible as I was at the end of the front row and it was a bit squashy with the orchestral pit right up to my knees... looked like more space towards the centre...

They are always doing day tickets - they are £25 quid at the moment and they sell the front row of each performance on the day...
Something else to bear in mind is that I went last Friday night - got to the theatre at 5.30pm and got offered rear stalls for 25 quid a ticket which was excellent.
I love the front row though - not alot of leg room but you are right in the action!

Thanks for the advice Sounds like it's definitely worth going for day tickets.
