Theatre booking amendment ? ?

Hey all

I have made a booking with lastminute for a theatre booking for Mary Popins for my other half as a surprise... but I have just found out that she has to work and cannot get that day off at ALL

I have tried to contact lastminute but they say that the theatre company have advise that all booking are non refundable and non amendable


Booking is only for next week Friday... anybody have any suggestions what I can try ??

I would ideally like to go on a different date


Any thoughts appreciated

Ian :confused:

    Up until recently I worked for a short breaks company, most of our bookings were for theatre breaks in London.

    This situation crops up all the time and what Lastminute told you is correct, it is the same if you bought concert or theatre tickets direct and then you couldn't go you would have to try to sell them yourself.
