Comfortable seat. Padded. Armrests. Decent legroom. The view of the stage was clear and unobstructed- but only if you leant forward! The guard rail cuts across the view when you sit back. A warm auditorium. Seat is situated in the centre of a very long row. Clear sound. Although looking down on the stage, I still felt very much part of the action and atmosphere. Good value. There are no female toilets on this floor.

I switched between leaning back and looking under the bar in front of me and leaning forward to peer over the top. I wasn't too uncomfortable but it could've been better!

Great seat for great price. As there are only 3 seats in the row it feels private. Just little corner of stage can't be see , that didn't effect this show. Plenty of leg room, and a plus size woman the seats are really comfy and spacious.
Superb seat. The view was wonderful. The rake was very good. Completely unobstructed view of stage. Very comfortable, large sized seats. Armrests. Backrest. Padded. Ample legroom. Perfect temperature. Acoustics were wonderful. A truly fabulous performance. Such a fun evening.
Brilliant seat with plenty of legroom. Stage is slightly raised but it doednt meam you have to tilt your head too much. Wouod definitely sit here again
This is the most central seat in the second row in Upper Circle. It offers a pretty clear view of the stage, albeit a little far back and up. leg room isn't the greatest but doable for a show that allows you to stretch your legs in the interval

Amazing view! The restriction is of the far right hand side of the stage but didn't affect the performance at all!
Enough soace for long legs but gets squishy if people walk past you. There is an overhang but it isnt in the way
It says view is restricted on the barbican website , but it was perfect and there was plenty of legroom.
Almost a perfect seat to see all the effects and physical action

An ok seat. Good view but part of stage not visible - especially the back. But enjoyed the show.

Good seats for the price, middle & 3rd seat did have a more restricted view, but seat 1 was pretty ok. Legroom in centre seat not great.
