OUR MISSION
We visited a wide range of ‘discount’ theatre booths across London with the aim to source the BEST PRICED Upper Circle seat for The Wizard of Oz at the London Palladium, May 2012. At this time the Box Office’s Upper Circle seat were priced between £9-25*. We visited the Coventry Street branch of London Theatre Bookings, situated next door to the Prince of Wales Theatre, to check out what ‘discounts’ they were offering along with the quality of their service. For more information on London Theatre Bookings visit www.londontheatrebookings.com
| PRICE | £31.50 (Quoted face value £37.50) |
| SEAT | Upper Circle – but no exact location. |
| PAYMENT/ COLLECTION METHOD | I could pay with either cash or card and I would receive my ticket at the booth. |
| SERVICE | Business like, although my attendant seemed eager to get me out of there |
| STAR PRACTICE | This outlet is registered with STAR under the London Theatre Bookings name. However, like with the We Will Rock You booth on Piccadilly Circus, it was not obvious that this was the company that owned the booth. Their service was generally along STAR guidelines, however the face value they quoted is not the current face value at the theatre. |
OUR RATING: 3/5
