Aladdin Update

I've just called the Old Vic to check if they have tickets available for the evening performance of the 18th December. They had 12 tickets left. I've nabbed the lot. Of those, eleven are now spoken for, which means I've got ONE ticket left. ONE ticket.

Who shall the lucky final theatre goer be?

I am debating an exciting competition of some kind of determine this.

For the record, the people who have given me a firm 'yes' to Aladdin ticketsare:

[personal profile] annwfyn (me. I got first dibs by virtue of booking)
[profile] pierot (jez, who didn't so much say 'yes please' as 'I've got to, haven't I? You won't let me get away from this one. Argh! Damnit! That's hurting. Yes. Yes. Anything. Just stop the pain)
[profile] ksirafai (Ginnie, who said something along the lines of 'Iain McKellen in a dress? How could anyone say no')
[personal profile] twicedead (Ben P, who said something like 'yes..give me your LJ login and password and I'll sort it all out for you.' followed up by 'trusssst me'. It was very worrying. Note to self - must change LJ password)
Mrs [personal profile] twicedead (Jo P who Ben assures me will come)
[profile] commlal (Faith, who assures me she doesn't smell)
[personal profile] twisted_times (Mr Faith, who Faith tells me also doesn't smell)
[profile] castorlion (MattMatt, who appears to be going as Ginnie's date, from the look of the numbers)
[profile] wildrogue + 2 (Elle and minions. As long as I am given money I care not who I take to the theatre)

And that's it. I'm feeling very very glad that I phoned up the theatre today and mildly scared that the place is pretty much sold out three and a half weeks in advance. It appears that Ginnie isn't the only one who finds Iain McKellen in drag pretty much irrestible.

Somehow, that scares me...

Update: [profile] molez has snagged the last ticket.

I don't know - it starts at 7.30 pm, so I'm guessing it won't be done before 10 pm. I've saved you a ticket provisionally, so let me know asap if you want it?

Sounds good, I can give you the money on Sunday?

Thanks for holding the ticket.

£20. Last ticket currently awarded to Andy Molez, but if someone falls through do you want me to get in touch with you first?

I have no idea at all. Shall have a hunt and if a Aladdin turns up I shall let you know. It is entirely possible that it is, but I've honestly not looked at DVDs for AGES. They are currently hidden beneath a massive pile of moving crap.

*looks apologetic*

Twicedead is married?

[identity profile] twicedead.livejournal.com 2005-11-25 10:33 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it was a cute little ceremony with just Chloe, Xander and Charles in attendance at the Clumps. Luckily charles had lost the demon possessed box by then.

What, Freddy wasn't invited to the wedding?
