Going to London

For my 30th, whats the cheapest way to get a ticket for a show, Ticketmaster seem to charge loads of fees when u book through them.

Any recommendations what to see aswell?

for discount tickets try sites like www.broadwaybox.com/london www.theboxoffice.com www.whatsonstage.com etc i have used them all in the past for cheap tickets

also if you try the shows own websites, usually cheaper than ticketmaster if ticketmaster are not their main agent (and compair the ticket fees and allocations with see tickets as well)

as for shows to see there are loads on at the moment, what type are you looking for - musical, play, comedy, dance etc? if you have a look on officiallondontheatre.com should give you an idea of whats on

if a musical then would personally recommend legally blonde, avenue q, love never dies, les miserables, phantom of the opera, we will rock you, wicked etc.

hi
lastminute.com have a deal on at the moment called Maymaddness with discounts off theatre tickets. I have just booked to see Oliver in August for £40 for two tickets. Offer ends at the end of May. Good luck:)

Go through the show/theatre's own website would be my first suggestion. Lastminute.com also have a few 'dinner and show' deals which may be worth looking at. Or, if you don't want to see anything specific, the TKTS booth in Leicester Square is worth checking out to see what they have on the day.

Recommendations wise, I'd suggest Avenue Q, but have friends who rave about Wicked and am planning on seeing that when I can find someone to come with me.
