Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry the price felt higher than elsewhere. Ticket pricing is dynamic and managed by the production based on demand and availability, which is outside of our control. We do always work hard with our partners to secure the best prices available and we're sorry this wasn't the experience you had.

Very very good!

There was an issue with our flight being delayed three (3) times, meaning we would miss our scheduled show today. The company worked with us to use it later and "Sam" was excellent in communicating back with me and offering a solution. Thank you all so much🫶🏾

Thank you for your review! Three flight delays is an incredibly stressful situation and we're really glad Sam could communicate with you throughout and find a solution that meant you could still see the show. We'll make sure he knows how much it was appreciated. We hope the rescheduled show is everything you're looking forward to!

Excellent service, friendly and reliable customer service.

I received the best service I could have from Marika. My credit card had problems at the time of payment, resulting in a duplicate payment.
I sent the message at night, around 9 pm, and the website's response said they would get back to me. Before 9 am, Marika had already resolved my problem.
I am immensely grateful!

We're really sorry to hear you're in this situation and we want to help. We've requested more details so we can look into your booking. If your show was cancelled, you will have received a 100% voucher for the full value of your tickets. If that voucher hasn't come through or isn't working, or you'd like to process a refund instead, please reach out to our team and we'll make sure a refund is taken care of for you.
