As the show has declined slightly in popularity i.e. it is not an automatic sell out weeks in advance, tickets are usually available at the TKTS booth in Leicester Square but Les Mis tickets are 25% off not 50% off and 25% off on the top price of £40 which would mean £32.50 if you include the £2.50 service charge. You can do better by calling the box office in terms of price.<BR><BR>Also as always be aware of the two or three rip off joints that you encounter on your way to the TKTS booth which is a free standing structure in the little park that is actually Leicester Square. When you get off the Underground at Leicester Square station, you are on Charing Cross Rd. You will see a closed off pedestrian street and as you walk down that stree you will see dumb tourists lined up in front of several establishments that call themselves half price booths. They are not the official half price booths, they are actually ticket brokers who have tickets and rip you off; especially on shows like Les Mis, Phantom, My Fair Lady, Mamma Mia etc. Make sure you walk past these establishments till you get to the Burger King which is where the little park starts. At the rear you will find the TKTS booth.<BR><BR>Further, be aware they are closing Les Mis in New York in March. I wonder if the production in London can be far behind?
