This is part of The Jamie Lloyd Company's continued commitment to accessibility, with a total of 12,000 tickets priced at £15 available across the UK productions of Cyrano de Bergerac and their forthcoming production of Anton Chekhov's The Seagull, in a version by Anya Reiss, starring Emilia Clarke.
