Seating over 2,000 people across four levels and boxes, pricing varies extensively throughout the theatre, which offers excellent, unobstructed views. Due to the sheer size of the theatre, it is possible to feel distant from the stage, but as the stage itself is 22 metres deep, sitting further back allows you to take everything in.
Seats in the Balcony at this theatre are always the cheapest and often the best value for money. Sitting near the front centre provides an excellent unobstructed view of the stage that allows you to absorb the atmosphere of this amazing venue. These seats can often be better than those in the Grand Circle.
Sit in the front of the Royal Circle for the best overall view of the vast stage! Seats 12-24 are dead-centre and avoid any restrictions that could occur in seats towards the ends of rows. Alternatively, sit in the Stalls for a hugely immersive experience devoid of any restrictions.
Great, clear view of the whole stage - even though the seat is to the side, this isn't an issue. The seats are close together and due to the curve of the orchestra pit the leg room decreases as you go further along the row. More

Although the seats are fairly packed together, this seat offers more leg room than the two seats further to the side. It is to the side of the stage, but being at the front there is no one to block your view so it is a good, clear view! More

Although the seat is at the side, it is still a good view of the stage. However, the seats on this side row are tightly packed together, and there is little leg room (although still better than in A0!) More
