Please note that although I booked upper gallery seats, The Barbican Theatre kindly upgraded us to the Circle. We had an excellent view and could hear perfectly.

Perfect seats, would certainly choose them again. I am short in stature and often have problem seeing , due to taller people in front of me. No problem last night.

Centre front row of Circle - a good position in terms of viewing the stage and performances. However, seats very shallow and legroom tight; no space to put anything at all under seats. Another downer was actually finding the right seats! Luckily neighbouring members of the audience had torches and helped people find the individual numbers, obscurely positioned in non-contrasting colour on the inside of the dark brown leather arms - almost impossible to see as those front row seats are in shadow! You can get a rough idea from the row behind, but seats not directly aligned. Advice: take a small torch if in Circle Row A; sit somewhere else if you have long legs, and leave coats/bags in cloakroom (if you can find it! This IS the totally confusing, poorly signed Barbican . . .)

Front row of the circle top price. Very far away from the stage and have to get 30 people to stand to get in or out

Very comfortable seats with more than adequate leg room and space for people to pass by. Row B is sufficiently elevated to ensure that there are no obstructions for uninterrupted pleasure.

Good seats all round but can be spoiled by others using mobile phones taking selfies particularly at the beginning of the night!

We were in the back row of the circle and had a perfect view of the stage with ample space to move in and out of our seats without forcing others to stand.

Thought they would be bad seats sitting in the nose bleeds, but saw everything really well. The host assisting people to their seats were really kind, and helpfully.

The stalls have a good rake and there are no fixed obstructions. The leg room is traditionally limited but the seats themselves are very comfortable and a good size.

I really liked my seats as they were positioned in a very good location. It was b50 and I could see the whole stage. The height of the upper circle seating is very good and you can still see the faces of the actors.

Left side row B, good view although did lean forward sometimes to see the whole stage. Excellent overview for dance routines. Very good value for money.

Even though it was in the gallery I could see the whole stage. All of the action is very central.

I obviously would’ve loved to have been nearer the seats - but we were back of the circle and view was still great!
