Star attraction: Ewan McGregor will play Iago in Shakespeare's Othello at the Donmar Warehouse
10 April 2012
Tickets to see Ewan McGregor in the sold-out production of Othello are exchanging hands for more than £1,200 each.
Shakespeare's play at the Donmar Warehouse is proving more popular than the one-off Led Zeppelin reunion gig and the Spice Girls tour, according to ticket exchange company Viagogo.
The only tickets left for the 12-week run are for day seats and standing places. Donmar's box office prices range from £15 to £29 for the production but online the average price for a resale ticket is £1,220.
Eric Baker, CEO of Viagogo, said: "Who would have believed 400 years after it was written Othello would be the most popular ticket in town?"
