Cheap London Theatre tickets

[ashpanash]

Hi guys,

Im looking to go see Les Miserables in London (ENGLAND) soon and was wondering if there were any cheap sites to buy the tickets in canadian dollars rather than waiting to get there. I knwo they have a 50% off booth somewhere in London for day of tickets but I dunno if they will be sold out or not so I thought it might be easier to buy them now.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

The whole premise of the Half Price Ticket Booth in Leicester Square is to give a deal on the unsold tickets. Buying in advance does not qualify for that. Regardless where you buy the ticket, it will be in Pounds, conversion to Canadian will take place on your credit card.
Les Mis is not a new production, it has been playing for 25 or so years and there will always be tickets left.

We too are looking forward to taking in some London shows. It's not as good a deal as 50% off, but the Hop On Hop Off tour bus does indicate price breaks on major attractions (including shows) once you buy their sightseeing bus trip. I believe it was about$10 - 25 per seat. Lots to choose from!

Apart from this source, does anyone know of other price saving measures while visiting London attractions?

I used lastminute.co.uk for theatre tickets. Pprices are in pounds though, but the exchange rate is much better now than it was years ago when I went :)
