(I posted this on the London and general FFUK boards as well. Third time lucky, I guess... tongue )

I've got two tickets for the theatrical adaptation of "Making Money", Terry Pratchett's latest Discworld book, as I was planning to go there with a friend. Unfortunately my friend can't make it to the UK next weekend, so now I'm stuck with one extra ticket.

Would anyone here be interested?

The ticket is for this Saturday's (24 November) performance at 2:30 PM, and the play takes place at the Unicorn Theatre in Abingdon, near Oxford. It is performed by Studio Theatre Club, an amateur theatre group led by Stephen Briggs, who is also author of the adaptation, and well known to all Discworld fans.

The ticket costs £8. If anyone is interested, please let me know as soon as possible.

Here is the website of STC, you can also find directions to the Unicorn Theatre there.

I would go, but Oxford is evil, and it's hard enough to get to Oxford, let alone Abingdon. 3 train transfers and a bus between Andover and Basingstoke until the tracks are fixed = horrid.

Hi,

I would love to go, but Saturday is unfortunate... Still, maybe I could manage -- I'll write again in the evening. But if somebody is around here with a ticket for Tue to Thurs and would prefer Saturday, it would be just perfect, though a complicated exchange...

Thanks,

Alya
