You mean the musical?

Hell yeah I've seen it!!! Twice.. Once with my friends on the 9th June as we went for my 17th birthday then again on the 28th June with my Mum.

I cried all the way through when I first saw as I'd been wanted to go for over a year and was so happy at being there...

The wall above my bed is covered with all the posters I could buy from there, I have a t-shirt and of course I have the soundtrack.

Aww.. sorry Hravan but that's so sweet. You cried with happiness during the show!!
I haven't seen it. Where can you see it? London, Broadway, NYC or is it touring?

It's finished for now

It was in Toronto at first during 2006.
Then a revised version (as the Toronto one got really bad reviews) opened May 2007 in London and closed on the 19th July 2008.
A German-language version should be opened in Germany this year and there are plans to tour New Zealand, Australia and the Far East. I have heard a rumour that in a few years time there might be a tour around the UK and the USA but it will be scaled down - the technical side won't be as good especially as it won't have the revolving stage. But I'm not sure if that's true...

I have plans... When it's in New Zealand I want to go, see it there and then do the tour of the LotR sets. And hopefully go to the sets of the Hobbit and the second film as well...
Well not really plans... more like dreams...

And I'm really happy to hear you enjoyed it!

It was amazing!

There used to be video clips of it on the website (http://www.lotr.com but they've been taken down

However, some rather naughty person (I LOVE them) filmed a bit of while they were seeing it...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WBKC5-6wc0

That's Cat and the Moon and it's my favourite part! I love that song
When the four of them are on the bench at the beginning (bear with it, the camera work does get better) the order left to right is Merry, Pippin, Frodo and Sam.
It's much better live (obviously) because then you can see the whole stage and exactly what's going on.

There's quite a lot of videos on youtube but many are actually the Toronto version which isn't as good. Well the Toronto Galadriel is nothing on Laura Michelle Kelly (the one you'll hear singing if you listen to the soundtrack) or Abbie Osmon (Laura's replacement when her contract ended and the one I saw both times.)
The soundtrack songs are from the London production and the Toronto songs are slightly different.

EDIT:

Here's some more I've found.
At the gates of Moria: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_v2vPECu3o
I've found one of the clips they used to have on the website: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbF88CUeyYQ That's Legolas at the beginning... (he is amazing!) It's not the full song despite what the person who's posted the video is saying.
Here's the official clip of the Cat and the Moon from the website: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fCnxyyj4lY
