Cambridge Theatre Seat Guide

The Cambridge Theatre London has a capacity of 1247 seats. Section capacities are 497 Stalls, 295 Dress Circle and 443 Upper Circle. Use our interactive seating plan to view 5594 seat reviews and 4559 view from seat photos.

The Cambridge Theatre has broadly good views across the auditorium, with its mid-size meaning no seat feels particularly distant from the stage. When choosing your seats, keep in mind:

  • There are no support pillars that restrict views - making the rear Stalls a good option.
  • An Art Deco ceiling frames the proscenium and can overshadow the view in the Upper Circle.
  • Legroom is somewhat tight in the Upper Circle, making it less ideal for tall people.

Check SeatPlan's audience-submitted seat view photos and reviews to see how individual seats compare before booking.

Best Seats for Matilda

This family-friendly musical offers fabulous views from the Stalls and Dress Circle, with best value seats up in the Upper Circle. Sit up-front to see actors glide overhead on swings during one of the show's musical numbers, or opt for elevated views in the upper levels of the theatre. Find all these top tips and more, in our ultimate seating guide. We've collected thousands of real audience-uploaded reviews and seat view photos from SeatPlan to find all the insider tips on best value seats, hidden gems and best seats for kids.

Good value seats

The Upper Circle provides excellent views of the stage, and the front section does not feel as distant from the stage as in other theatres. Aim to sit in the second or third row, as close to the centre as possible for the clearest views. 

Premium seats

Sitting in row B or C of the Dress Circle (for example C18 ) provides excellent views of both the show and the beautiful theatre itself. Sit in the Stalls to enjoy a more immersive experience, with acting, set and costume details all easy to see.
