This is a long way up! The view is quite good as there is a large rake on the seating and you aren't blocked by the people in front. However the seats are really uncomfortable and not separate enough so the person next to you can take over your seat!

View was more restricted than expected, lots of sitting at awkward angles to get around the pillar. Seats were slanting downward, to the left. Fantastic show, beautiful venue, lots of opportunity to admire the pillars. Wonderful front-of-house staff.
This seat is really too close! It is the very front row of the theatre and you have to look up to see the actors on the stage. That said, it does have a great view and excellent leg room.
You get what you pay for :) and I pay for restricted views. Couldn't see the fiddler cos he was hiding up top but I could see the pores of literally every other character
Sold as restricted view but could comfortably see the whole stage without leaning. Chair quite uncomfortable and next to a very restricted view seat (E16). Other issue is the seats are cramped with little leg room and it can get very hot so wear layers!

Next to a restricted view seat (E16), but this seat has full view of the stage. Only issue is the seats are cramped with little leg room and it can get very hot up here.

I think if the people in front of me weren't so tall, I'd see more of the stage. Excellent view of captions.
Restricted view, so cheaper seat but pillar right across middle of view.

Partial obstructed view but very comfortable. Good leg room.

This is slightly off to one side, but you still have a really good view of the stage due to the rake on the seating. Comfy and OK leg room.

I love being up close to the stage and seeing all the little details so I loved this seat! Only downside is the lights block upstage left
Very high but great view of whole stage. A little head bobbing needed but you have a wall behind you so don't have to worry about anyone behind.
