The Novello Theatre has a capacity of 1088 seats. Section capacities are 479 Stalls , 249 Dress Circle , 218 Grand Circle and 142 Balcony. Use our interactive seating plan to view 2072 seat reviews and 1048 photos of views from seat.
The auditorium is narrow and thin, with shorter rows making it feel very high. The best seats are in the well-raked Stalls, which have no obstructions.
Slips in the Dress Circle are often discounted as they offer a side-view of the action. These are often good value for money as they still allow you to enjoy the production without restriction. Sitting in the higher tiers can encounter more restrictions, but seats are much cheaper here.
Premium seats can be found in the centre of the Stalls, around Row M. Sitting centrally in the Novello allows for an excellent overall view of the stage, with steep rakes ensuring that audience members will not block your view.
