One of the great things about being in London is the huge array of theatre plays and musicals on at any given time. We have already gone to see Phantom of the Opera and have had our eye on another play, 'On an Average Day', starring Woody Harrelson and Kyle MacLachlan. We thought it would be great to see two big Hollywood stars in action on the stage but a limited season and financial constraints seemed to be working against us.

Fortunately for us there is a wonderful invention called the Half Price Tickets window. Last Friday night Shane went into Leicester Square early and managed to secure us two very cheap, very half price, tickets to "On an Average Day". I caught the train in and met Shane after work.

We weren't sure what our seats would be like as they were extra cheap due to being 'limited viewing' tickets. It turned out to be a pole in between us and the stage. However, the pole was quite narrow and was about six rows in front of us so barely made a difference at all. Even better was that our seats were in the Stalls, some of the better seats in the theatre. We both had an excellent view of the stage.

The play was fantastic! Made all the more enjoyable due to our extra cheap tickets. A fact I'm sure the people next to us (who probaly paid full price having narrowly avoided the offending pole) got sick of hearing before and after the show and during the interval!
