Little Britain Theatre Trip

Hi
My mum and brother are big fans of little britain and currently there is a theatre show currently doing its run around the UK. Unfortantly it seems from ticketmaster that its all booked out completely for March. But some tickets for the 2nd March 06 in Liverpool it reports they are currently not for sale... why is this? When would they normally be availible?
Additionally is there a simple way on ticketmaster of locating where its not booked up instead of selecting individual dates and searching them one by one?
I certaintly don't want to pay over the odds via ebay where some tickets are going upwards of £70 for a 24.50 ticket!!

I think some tickets or dates are held over and released after the main body of tickets go on sale. I noticed this when looking through the LB venues, but I think they did state when the tickets would be released. You could contact the venue direct and ask if they know when extra tickets will be released. It may be that all tickets are sold out.
If you don't mind sitting apart you could try and book individual tickets - some dates have tickets still available, but won't even book 2 tickets together!
Finally, you can sign up for ticket alerts, either by venue or artist. But they are only sent weekly at best, so not much help if you want tickets at short notice."Cheap", "Fast", "Right" -- pick two.0 -
To be honest with you, the March 06 tickets were released in November 2004 - that's when I bought my Bristol show seats. At the time of buying, 17 months seemed a long long way away - and it was!
The eBay prices are mad, but people are obviously willing to pay that amount for the shows.
Definitely get yourself signed up for the Ticket Alerts with Ticketmaster, you shouldn't miss any more. Also have a look for April shows, as they added some dates to cope with demand.0 -
thanks for the responses, found some bargain tickets so paying normal retail price for the birmingham showing cant wait
