Recieved a patronising email from ticketmaster saying that they had cancelled the first two weeks of the run, the opening night tickets that had been booked since January with associated travel plans/hotel bookings now were useless, but it's ok as; "We would like to offer you an exchange of tickets into any available Monday - Thursdayperformance from Wednesday 6 December onwards. " monday- Thursday? They also helpfully linked in Cameron Macintosh's press release, a particularly annoying line was "I am, of course, sorry to amend the performance schedule but undertaking a private rebuilding project on this scale in Central London has no precedent." 

London as a city is constantly evolving, almost a permanent building site, that's not an excuse, everyone builds there with the associated hassle, they shouldn't have been so greedy and taken the cash for dates they couldn't fulfill better to be pessimistic in the planning stage.
