Not great! Most people do this for the flexibility to do other things, like study or go to auditions, and proximity to the thing they love rather than the money.

If you're going to splurge on the experience, the choice of seat is easily the most important thing. It's crazy to me that people spend silly money on merch, drinks etc and then sit up in the nosebleed seats - you're here to see the show after all! And use the bathroom in good time beforehand. Also, if there's something wrong (eg the seat is broken, someone around you is being loud etc.) please tell us while we can do something about it rather than after, we're here to make sure you have the best experience :)

We've had the same show for many years now but do hire out the theatre on our 'off' day, which tends to be 'An Evening with X' kind of events, and that generally brings in a 'non-theatre' kind of crowd who can be difficult depending who the person is. We had one with an ex-Footballer which brought in a lot of beery dads

Your perception is definitely correct!

Yep, day returns are definitely a good idea. I haven't used it in a while but the TKTS booth in Leicester Square is something of an institution in terms of cheap tickets. You can get rush tickets or enter a ticket lottery with TodayTix as well.
