The GILT (Get into London Theatre) offer is on again in today's Telegraph - see below.
But if you don't want to book via their 0871 booking line number I stumbled across last years offer which takes you to an online booking site. Unfortunately I don't know how to do links but the details are below:
I have just booked 2 seats for Joseph Mon eve show, stalls Row G for £50 and they are normally approx £45 pp.
Some shows start from £15 pp.
