    Thank u so much for this video!! Do want to watch wicked again but am unable to spend a lot of money so i am considering getting tickets for the £20 seats as already seen the show twice and am a lot more interested in the music than the what is going on on stage.

    7:04 I've Been To See Stephen Schwartz's Wicked The Broadway Musical At London's Wonderful Apollo Victoria Theatre In London's West End In London In England In The United Kingdom 3 Times. First One Is September 10th 2014 Just After New York. Second One Is A Easter Special Back In April 2018 Just After Tokyo In Japan And Third One Is I've Saw This Show On February 13th 2022 This Year As A Valentine's Day Special And It Was Super Awesome And It Was The Longest Running West End Musical Ever Made In West End History And Broadway History And It Was A Spinoff To The Wizard Of Oz In 1939.

    So helpful! I love these end seats. Totally agree with being in the stalls over the circle. Such a massive auditorium. One time I notice that the day seats hadn’t sold out and very last minute, they posted front row seats on the website. Managed to bag a ticket on the cheap without having to queue. Only ever seen this happen once and then never again!

    • @Spicyfridge
      @Spicyfridge 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      They do this whenever dayseats haven't sold (usually mid week etc) but recently they have started putting them online full price! So they're around £70 instead of £30, so you now have to go in person to get the cheap prices!

    • @RukayaCesar
      @RukayaCesar  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      So glad you enjoyed this Christopher! Yes they used to put the dayseats back on at the dayseat price, now it has changed and if the dayseats go online they go up at a higher price but I would presume if you bought them in person they'd still be at the cheaper price... I'm going to ask about that next time I'm there!

    • @Chris-ev5sg
      @Chris-ev5sg 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Rukaya Cesar oh cool. Let me know how you get on. Doesn’t make sense that they would leave empty seats! Surely flogging then cheap is better than leaving an emptier auditorium. Start a campaign! Lol

    I love the way Alice chucks herself off the bed during popular..
    I more often than not day seat now... but if I have to book in advance for any reason I try and get D11 or D12 on the righthand side! You hardly miss anything it all!

    • @RukayaCesar
      @RukayaCesar  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's great isn't it! Especially now it's getting colder and that makes dayseating even harder 😬

      I've sat in the really cheap day seats before and I mean you can't really expect a great view for 5£ but to me, it would have been totally worth it to spend a little more as we didn't get to see everything. The rails were right in our eyesight.

    • @RukayaCesar
      @RukayaCesar  6 ปีที่แล้ว

    British Theatre have a great upgrade offer at the moment for Wicked if booked by 20th March for dates up to end of May and I'm finally getting to see Alice on Friday, I'm so excited!!! Can anyone tell me if she is as good on a Friday evening as she is, or so I'm told on a Saturday evening? Thanks

    • @RukayaCesar
      @RukayaCesar  6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Falling off the bed in Popular could be a new thing for all Elphabas in the UK! I just went to see the UK tour of Wicked in Edinburgh and the Elphie there was Amy Ross, and she fell off the bed too at the "toss toss" bit! 💗

    • @RukayaCesar
      @RukayaCesar  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes they've had that in the show for a long time now, I think it started around 2010? I could be wrong but it's been part of the show since I started seeing it in 2012 😄

  • @MissMusicstuff

    Thank You for this video! I saw Wicked 3 weeks ago when I was in London from the middle of row J and planning to see Sophie & Alice their last peformance? How does Day seating work and do you recommend for a last performance or can I better book at the Site?

    • @RukayaCesar
      @RukayaCesar  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      No worries, glad this helped! At a cast change you can dayseat but it's likely very busy, and they usually let you buy only one ticket per person rather than two! If you aren't able to comfortably dayseat I would recommend booking :)

    Hi, with the wicked show there is two different times for most days on the website,does that mean part one and part two or does it mean that there are just two different times for the whole performance? If anyone knows, please let me know x

    • @RukayaCesar
      @RukayaCesar  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They do 2 performances on Wednesday and Saturday (sometimes on Thursday too in the school holidays) but it's exactly the same show, just at a different time! It's not like Harry Potter and the Cursed Child where each part is a separate show x

    • @leahtowers8599
      @leahtowers8599 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Rukaya Cesar thank you so much for the quick reply, I think after booking tickets for Harry Potter and the cursed child I thought that they would be in two parts ⚡️I’m thinking about going to see wicked as I’ve heard so many amazing things about it and the songs/music is incredible!!! 💚💚

    Very helpful vlog, thank you! I try to see Wicked once a year and, as I am a stalls person, I always go for a seat in Row E, middle, as I think they offer the perfect view for this show and take me right into the action. Maybe I'll try the 30£ ones on the right hand side in Row E next time ;-).

    • @RukayaCesar
      @RukayaCesar  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you as always for watching Michael! Glad you enjoyed 😊 Ooo gotta love the centre stalls seats, but yes I don't think you'd be displeased with the right-hand side seats, just get one as far in as you can and a little bit further back (Row G area is good, from memory) and it's a fab view!

    • @RukayaCesar
      @RukayaCesar  6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi, any thoughts on Lucie Jones? I have seen the show 20+ time since it began, but having heard and seen some clips of Lucy, i was a bit disappointed, singing was average and acting poor. Maybe she has grown into the role, but i would appreciate your opinion, thanks,Ian.😊

    Hi :) i know i'm a bit late but i'm going to London in September and i want to go see Wicked for the first time. Since I'm also going to see Hamilton I can't afford the better seats. Would you recommend the seats in the dress circle or the ones in the front?

    • @RukayaCesar
      @RukayaCesar  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey, have a great trip!! I'd say be as central and close as you can afford, though saying that the seats to the sides of the stalls generally are still very good, and if you do go for the side stalls seats I'd actually recommend going a tad further back just because that way the set won't be as much of a restriction on the sides if that makes sense!

    Hello Rukaya, sorry for not commenting in ages I hope you are doing ok? I am looking to book a cheap stalls seat left hand side as you look at the stage and was just wondering if I was able to on the day swap it for a day seat and pay the difference? As I don't know if I can day seat until closer to the time? Thank you.

    • @RukayaCesar
      @RukayaCesar  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Charlotte! No worries I hope life is good for you 😄 I don't believe you'd be able to swap to a dayseat but it might be worth giving the box office a ring and asking them? That's what I would do! 😊

    I've got a question about day seating. Are they releasing tickets for the Saturday matinee and the evening show or just for the matinee? And what time would you recommend to get there to queue up on a Saturday? I'm really afraid, that I'm going to fly to London to see Wicked and then end up not having a ticket

    • @LTMusicals
      @LTMusicals 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Verena. Hope this isn't too late. What time of year are you going? Summer and holiday times for central seats 6-6.30am I'd say. Weekdays and winter (not holiday time) between 6.30 and 8 I'd say. Depends if you're fussed about bang on Central seats or not. If not, 7am is a safe bet!!
