Monday to Thursday, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is amongst the cheapest theatre breaks you can book right now with fantastic discounts on Gold seats. On Friday and Saturday, though, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is an extremely aggressively-priced show and can be hard to book on a shoestring. The Upper Circle is not well-designed at The Savoy, though K and L are usually discounted that little bit further to make the very back of the theatre somewhat worth the budget price.
Monday to Saturday evenings at 7.30pm
Thursday & Saturday matinees at 3.00pm
