A light box from the ceiling blocked the faces on the screen on the stage.

Too old and uncomfortable some rows need to be taken out

AA7 and AA8. Were out to the side in the Grand Circle. No leg room whatsoever and very poor view through lighting equipment etc of the stage. Terrible box at the bottom of the stairs leading to the seats that you can't see that caused our drinks to be dropped.

Great position seats. Tbh i think there wouldn't be a seat with any obstruction in the Gielgud, only criticism is small space but that cant be helped.

Dress circle at the Gielgud - always a great view (and excellent staff there - very welcoming)

James Higgins Confirmed ticket purchaser

Second row - a little tight on legroom, but this is to be expected in a theatre of a certain age.

The downgrade is for a woman seated who kept going to her cell 7x before I intervened. Her light and fuss almost destroyed the majesty and nearly her fone! Patrons shouldn’t have to fight such wars in their own. Ushers seated inside should have swiftly responded!!

The view was the worst I have ever had in a theatre and I tend to go to the theatre 2/3 times a month - so pretty poor

Sheenagh Confirmed ticket purchaser

Really didn't see much at all. My fault though for buying restricted. Having said that, other theatres have better restricted view as you can see more. Yes, yes, I know... I'm a cheapskate :D

Middle seat of row E in the Grand Circle ( the gods) - great view & better than I had from the back of the stalls in the same theatre recently.

Right at the back but we were first at the bar for the interval! Good visibility overall and in no way affected our enjoyment of the show.

A from Abingdon Confirmed ticket purchaser

7 May 2023

We were seated in row D which turned out to be the 3rd row as row A had been removed to extend the stay. They were comfortable to sit on though maybe a little narrow as the stranger next to me kept elbowing me in the ribs .

I was in the second row, center seat a couple of rows back may have been better, but I have no co Plaintext.

Gloria Reading Confirmed ticket purchaser

A good view of the stage although it was difficult to dicern the actors facial features. The seats are a bit cramped for a 6 footer.

Alan Confirmed ticket purchaser

Ok

Moya Brewer Confirmed ticket purchaser

29 April 2023

We were in the Grand Circle. We could see the stage perfectly but I have to say, if you are of a certain age or very tall, then you are likely to feel very cramped as the seats in front are right up against your knees. An aisle seat would be fine.
