Just found out (from a friend) that the lovely David Tennant is going to play the role of Hamlet - in Stratford upon Avon next summer! at the beginning of August - Matinee Tickets are £30 and evening tickets are £38! I'm sorry I don't have a link but I am sure you can "google " it!
I've asked my friend to book me one already! :D
I know it's a long way off but as its David Tennant, tickets could sell fast!

So there you go Ladies...get booking!
:wink:

Aw man! I so want to go. I keep wanting to joing the rsc so i can get my booking even the day before public booking... i think i will. My friends and my English teacher want tocome to. Lols! Aw, i so have to go. I'm really chuffed though, because i read an article today that apparently after they finish the run in November, they may take it to the West End of London, at which point I'll be living on the South Bank. Hoo.Ray. Wheeeeeeeee!!!! hmmm... *excited*

OOooooohhh Eeeee!!! I'm really excited. I've just booked my own ticket.
I'm going alone, but because of that I could surf the days it was on and I managed to get a top-price "SuperSeat" for Monday September 1st (It was £40!!! =O)
God knows what "Superseat" means but it sounds interesting. Maybe I'll get free juice or a cushion. Haha! I'm really excited now.
Sorry i couldn't make the same day as you FQ - i can't travel on weekends it's too expensive.

Squee!!

No probs...I go to the theatre on my own all the time, and I'm sure I'll run into some other fangirls there anyway. :)
I'm going on Friday 15th Aug and I've got a pretty good seat in the stalls.

I booked my B&B earlier, w00t! £48 for an ensuite single room is pretty good I thought. :)

haven't even thought about where we will stay I think I may try and find a youth hostel or something for my sister and I to stay in but I think I'll book it a little nearer the time

I looked up the youth hostel and it's actually out the outskirts of the town so you'd have to get a taxi to and from it or research buses if you're going without a car. Personally I couldn't be bothered with the extra hassle and cost!

oh gosh you are so organised FQ thanks for that I think I'll try and find something closer then as I doubt my parents will drive us there...

Ooh, score, FQ! What's the name of the hotel you're at?

It's called the Arden Way Guesthouse and I booked it through travelsupermarket just used the search B&Bs facility.
It's only about 5 mins walk from the theatre apparently. :)
