How can I get cheaper tickets for Sunny Afternoon in Oxford?

To find cheaper tickets, look first at midweek performances rather than Saturday night, choose higher or more side-on seating areas that are usually priced lower, and try to book as early as you can, because starting prices often increase as demand grows closer to the performance date.
