OK luvvies, I'm not much of a theatre-goer myself, but it's the girlfriend birthday next month and I want to book tickets for the Tina Turner musical in London.
I've checked out a couple of websites and the prices all seem similar (and by that I mean eye-wateringly expensive), but anyone got any suggestions for good sites that maybe even do discounted tickets?
I'm also booking tickets for Abba Voyage (even more eye-wateringly expensive), but looks like going direct to their own ticket-booking site is the best bet, unless anyone knows different?
PS, this is all top-secret, so no telling anyone, eh!  |  |

TKTS is the official ticket reseller and often has good discounts. They used to just be on-the-day but now you can book ahead of time too.
Showfilmfirst can have some good theatre deals too. Looks like they've got TT listed. |  | | |

Check out Todaytix.com for Tina. And for Abba I think your best off using the official box office as no where has cheap tickets for it. |  | | |

This isn’t exactly what you’re asking for but if you’re local to the theatre then I would recommend going to the ticket office there.
A few years ago I took my other half to see ‘Wicked’ - I thought I knew which tickets I wanted but the chap at the ticket office told me that for a lot less money, I could seat just one row in front of the very expensive tickets, for almost the exact same view (but for a lot less money).

Only advice would be don't see Hamilton.
My other half loved it but I would prefer all circles of hell at once to seeing that again. |  |

In my experience your starting point should always be the theatre itself (and when googling make sure it is the official site - as with so many things ticket agents masquerade as "official"). Once you have worked out what the best official box office price is you can judge whether any agencies are better.
I was looking for myself and found fairly good Feb availability - midweek from £20 and weekends from £45. This is Upper Circle but we're not talking the O2 so reasonable views from all seats. If you want Stalls lowest price I found is £95. |  | | |

Oh yes, there's the old 'where to sit' problem as well.
I just looked up a view-from-the seats website for the Aldwych, seems that the view from near the front of the dress circle is pretty good, and mid-week Feb only around £60 each, so happy days. | |

They do a theatre sale for Jan & Feb, apart from half term week. Tina musical is on there I think. Worth a look. | | | |

thats very much dependent on the theatre, I think its Drury Lane or the Palladium, could be both really, where the circle is raked steeply like Newcastles ground, so you end up feeling a long way away from the stage, the Regent they are not, plus leg room is still very Victorian sized. | | | |
