Betty Blue Eyes- The Musical -Novello Theatre Spring 2011 — Page 5

Those of you who are TKTS'ing it - just go to the theatre box office - best seats available for £25. Cheaper than TKTS and probably better seats. Both times I have seen it, I have dayseated and got Row D Stalls and Row C Circle (Which I would recommend the most for this show).

I think Row C stalls is far too close for this show - since there is no pit, the stage comes right out and is very high. If it's your second or third time, great, but if it's your first time, I recommend...

I think Row B or C Dress Circle is perfect (about seat 10)

I day seated this yesterday and got a stage box - what a fantastic seat! The house was decent for a Monday night - balcony and upper circle closed but the dress circle mostly full and the stalls two-thirds full.

The show itself was fun and quite moving in places, thanks to the two leads, but it's so slight and the big production numbers felt like they were imposed upon it rather than flowing from the story. Catchy score though, as others have noted. I came out humming "Betty Blue Eyes" and I'm still humming it the morning after.
