A student in London is usually trying to make ends meet and adding social activities is generally a forlorn event. However, London's West End theatre district provides many financial opportunities for students to attend the district's over 40 theatre's world class shows. The West End theatres provide cost effective theatre tickets for families and students in a number of different venues.
London West End is one of the world's largest theatre districts because of its showing of quality and popular leading shows, musicals, special theatrical events and fine dining. There isn't a day or week that goes by in which the West End doesn't have a world class quality stage performance taking place. Shaftesbury Avenue is central London's major street where the earliest theatres were built and is the heart of the theatre district. Shaftesbury Avenue contains the Lyric, Apollo, Gielgud and Queen's theatres and its name sake.
The longest running show is presently at the Queen's Theatre and is offering special student discounts. London theatre trickets are not always available because they are high in demand. Theatres such as the Queen's Theatre London often provides student deals and discounts for its many musicals, mysteries, comedies, dance and plays. Student schedules allow them to take in weekly matinees and evening performances for half price.
Buying Queen's Theatre tickets, as well as tickets to other theatres, is as easy as using the ticket booth in Leicester Square or purchasing tickets directly from the theatre's box office. For students under the age of 26, discounted tickets are offered to get young people more interested in the arts and to keep theatre students engaged in quality stage performances.
Another student discounted ticket option is by applying for a particular pass by contacting the theatre with the age of the student. A membership card is then sent to the student which offers great theatre performances for as little as £5. Queen's Theatre London and other West End theatres provide school group theatre discounts combined with discount restaurant packages.
Websites and electronic theatre site boards publish half price tickets as well as same day tickets which are sold when the box office opens or 2 hours prior to show time. Students often take advantage of standing tickets which are first come first serve, where they purchase cheap tickets to stand in the back of the theatre. Previously purchased tickets at full price are often returned or the person's suddenly find that they can not attend a performance. These returned tickets are offered to students more often at a discounted rate.
