Built in a traditional Victorian style, the theatre has one of the most impressive auditoriums. Views can be varied due to the curve of the seating, which means some seats offer side-angled views. Restricted view seats are clearly labelled.
Give your next visit to the Theatre Royal Haymarket the regal treatment by booking a seat in one of the two Stalls boxes. Box A was formerly called the Royal Box and has received several generations of noble guests dating back to a young Queen Victoria. Located adjacent to the stage on each side of the auditorium, these boxes contain two seats each and must both be booked as a pair. This means you will have a totally private experience with the whole box reserved for your party only, making it the perfect date night option.
The seats within the box are freestanding, allowing you to move them to maximise your view, legroom and overall comfort. Due to their proximity to the stage and location at the side of the auditorium, the view will be slightly restricted over similarly priced seats in the central stalls, however the added privacy makes them a great choice for a special occasion with a best friend or loved one.
Best Seats in the House
For an unforgettable theatre experience at the Theatre Royal Haymarket, the best seats are found in the Stalls and Royal Circle sections.

In the Royal Circle, Row B is highly recommended for its unobstructed views and comfort, with comments like, "Perfect view, couldn't fault it". These premium seats truly provide the best views and atmosphere, making them the best seats in the house.

Offered a good view of stage and had good legroom
Best Legroom Seats
For taller theatre-goers seeking comfort, the Stalls section offers some excellent options. Rows G and F are particularly noteworthy, with seats like G12 and F1 providing ample legroom and comfort, making them ideal for those over 6ft. Additionally, Row H in the Stalls also has good legroom, especially seat H12, which ... has received positive feedback. However, be cautious of Row A in the Royal Circle, where legroom is rated poorly, making it less suitable for taller patrons.
