Unorganised rubbish
To be honest this whole thing ended up feeling more and more rubbish and we got closer to it with things changing left right and center. First that lost the street food vendors (but having seen the reviews and pictures of the food I’m glad we didn’t have that) and exchanged for afternoon tea at £25 a head. I waited for reviews on that one before booking and safe to say didn’t book it and was quite glad upon seeing them as they looked rubbish for the price ! We bought tickets at a time where you paid and booked your exact seats so u could see exactly where you wanted to sit and paid for that privilege. Close to the visit they changed this and people could then pay for “lightning passes” to turn up early and choose where they wanted to sit… I messaged and questioned this as was concerned this now meant I wudnt get my seats, this was ignored (same as it seems they do with all issues) and a few days before I received a check in call making sure I had my tickets, paid for parking which I had (despite the fact this angered me as this was actually on a free car park at the sports club and nobody was there checking anything with the parking!!!!!), and checking if we now wanted to add afternoon tea. So while I had her on the phone I asked about this seating change and was assured we would still get our seats we booked. Great I thought. No… Get there and are shown to our seats by a helpful man, firstly the table B that we booked wasn’t even in the same position as what was picked online, and low and behold people in our seats. When asked to move they refused as people were in thier seats and then have then been placed there by another member of staff… we despite our protests we write then moved to other seats, and it seemed they didn’t have a clue then which were free and which were not. Absolute rubbish!!!! The food and drink were overpriced but it was to be expected and that was fine… however the screen was causing nachos and dip £8 and the bar was selling them at £9.50 hmmm??? The actors I didn’t feel kept in role and you would find them smirking a lot and it didn’t feel serious, so I struggled to keep focused. 3 microphones died during performance. Someone at the end came on to say that it was some of thier first nights and that was the excuse for this however I have noticed on another post this was an excuse before… so not too sure I believe that now. Tables too small, chairs uncomfortable (which I had been warned about so brought a cushion). Too cold Toilets disgusting and not monitored, plus as it’s dark and no light now they also were pitch black as no lighting??? Not particularly safe. To top it all off we were sent an email a week before to get the verdict??? I thankfully hadn’t read this but why send that before you have watched the show!!!? The overall experience for the money for me was not good so for that I am unlikely to return to another of the shows.
