Beginning May 1, a new front row of 22 seats will be available for only $29.00 each as Rush Seats for the all-Canadian production of WAR HORSE, now playing at the Princess of Wales Theatre.
These seats will put 22 audiences members almost right in the action of the story, as if the spectators were in the trenches during the spectacular scenes set in the battlefields of the First World War. That's why we are calling them "trench seats”. Audience members will not only be close enough to witness all the excitement of the action, but to also marvel at the beauty and majesty of the life size horse puppets.
The special "trench seats" will be available for all performances beginning May 1 and can be purchased only on the day of the performance, by phone through TicketKing at 416-872-1212 or 1-800-461-3333, and/or in-person at the Princess of Wales Theatre box office only. There is a limit of 2 tickets per person. Tickets are subject to availability. Identification will be required at the box office to collect rush seats purchased over the phone.
Rush ticket sales by phone begin at 9am Monday through Friday, at 10am on Saturday and at 12Noon on Sunday.
Rush ticket sales in-person at the Princess of Wales box office begin at 12Noon on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday & Sunday. On Wednesday & Saturday they begin at 11am.
WAR HORSE is produced by The National Theatre of Great Britain, Bob Boyett, David Mirvish and National Angels based on a novel by Michael Morpurgo, adapted by Nick Stafford in association with Handspring Puppet Company.
“AN ABSOLUTE TRIUMPH!
It's hard to think of a stage production with more cross-generational appeal. It’s for everyone. This is a brilliant and simple gem.” Jian Ghomeshi, CBC Q
