Shadowlands Tickets - London

Primetime Emmy, Golden Globe, and BAFTA Award-nominee, Hugh Bonneville stars as author C.S. Lewis, whose orderly life as an Oxford Don is upended by the arrival of Joy Davidman, a spirited American poet. What starts as a meeting of minds transforms into a powerful and uplifting journey of love and the beautiful fragility of life. Book Shadowlands tickets with Theatre Tickets London.

William Nicholson's Shadowlands is based on a true story and has been adapted from his original BAFTA Award-winning TV Movie. The production became a West End hit, and scooped the Evening Standard Award for Best Play, followed by a Tony Award-winning transfer to Broadway. It was adapted into a major Hollywood movie in 1993, starring Debra Winger and Anthony Hopkins, and directed by Richard Attenborough, which subsequently won Outstanding British Film at the BAFTA Awards.

The long-overdue West End revival will play a strictly limited engagement at the Aldwych Theatre in London from 5 February and is is directed by Rachel Kavanaugh.

Shadowlands plays at the Aldwych Theatre in London. The medium-sized West End theatre is located on the Aldwych, with three levels of seating and a capacity of 1181.

The theatre offers good views of the stage from each level. Some rows at the back of the Stalls have slight restrictions due to the overhang from the Dress Circle, but they are unlikely to ruin the viewing experience.

Premium seats are in the front of the Stalls and offer the best views of the stage, around rows B and C. Seats in the centre are the most desirable. Studying the seating plan for price band cut-off points can produce great value, as seats on the aisle and the sides can be almost as good and much cheaper.

Good value can also be found in the Dress Circle in row A, seats 1-6 and 28-33, which are regularly discounted as they are on the curve of the balcony and facing the stage side-on. Restrictions to the view from these seats are minor, making them ideal for bargain hunters searching for last-minute shows or cheap tickets to Shadowlands.
