This is a very small theatre so the view is great from anywhere. The seats aren't particularly comfy - this one is on the aisle so gives you a bit more leg room than the one next to it.
Narrow chairs. Not very comfortable. But as aisle seat it was tolerable.

This seat has an excellent view for this show which is on two levels. It's very central and you can fully see all areas right to the back. No action is missed. Seats are quite narrow though - you are quite on top of your neighbour!

For this production you're far too close to the stage as its on two levels and you cant see to the back. Moved to row G at the back which was an excellent view. Might be ok for other shows if on one level

Not bad leg room. The seats feel flimsier than usual and the flooring depresses every time someone passes you.
Would recommend to sit more towards the back, but great view and nothing wrong with the seat.

Great seat and perfect front on view. Very slim fold down chairs with no arm rests so it’s a bit cosy!
