Has anyone heard any announcements of the preview shows above which appeared on some uk forum pages today? Hard ticketed events for premium and regular preview shows.
Thought this may have been on the chat forum which was being held today?

Agreed, but Disney has yet to beat their attempt to charge folks to stand in line to be the first into their stores for the Star Wars merchandise last fall. Thankfully someone with some intelligence saw the collective response and put a stop to that one.
Assuming this event rumor is true:
We had read some good reviews of the parties Disney threw in AK last summer. I'd expect the first night with food & drink to be much like those parties with entertainment beyond the ROL show for the price tag quoted.

These seem ridiculous prices for a show you can watch for "free with park admission", but I wouldn't call it a soft opening. That usually refers to a test period and if they are charging I would hope the show is ready. It sounds like there won't be a true soft opening for RoL.
There will be people willing to pay I expect though, even at those stupid prices. and I imagine the bloggers will get an invite to the "media" invite for free as well.

Think for yourselfer
So that's legit then? Paying to preview RoL is actually happening?

Until we know it's from a reliable source (such as Disney themselves), it's still in the rumor category.

Martin is reliable. That's why I asked him.

The last time Disney did a hard-ticket preview for a splashy new nighttime show, it went so well...
What could possibly go wrong?

To be fair, it was good once. When it was called "Countdown to Extinction".

Wait until they start charging for the opportunity to buy tickets for an event.
"For only $25.00, you can purchase an opportunity to buy tickets (at $75.00 each) to a once-in-a-lifetime event. But get in early, your chance to purchase a chance to get tickets is going quick."
The sad thing is, people might actually still buy in.
You mean like paying for the opportunity to purchse items before others?
