Fine I didn’t notice we were sitting on the floor and we are in our sixties and seventies.

Didn't have a seat , just sitting on a side area , but enjoyed being so close to the action! Liked being among the " refugees " and sharing their drinks and food . Very different ! Trevor.

odd collection of seats, chairs, some with cushions on them, some set on benches attached [?!] to tables. At the end no theatre goer would dare moan about the comfort of the seats. How can they, when people around them struggle for lives basics.

We initially had back row from which you were able to see almost all of the stage but from more of a distance. Fortunately we were moved closer to the stage, 3rd row of the dress circle which could see the same amount of the stage but closer and you felt closer to the emotion.

Wish I'd known about ground seats in 'The Cafe'

Need to be willing to lean forward if sitting front row of gallery but well worth it.

I could see well and it was very creative but for me personally, I would have preferred sitting back further so I could have dat against the wall with a cushion. Sitting on hard benches with no Back support for that long was uncomfortable for me.

We had side view seats, but they were great. There were screens to ensure we saw everything that wasn't in view, and although we were further removed from the stage, I still felt part of the performance. Brilliantly executed.

Great seats and small theatre. All seats seemed really good to me.

We were in the Dress Circle which was not in the middle of the action but we got a pleasing overview and there were screens showing relevant close-ups. In the seats on stage you would probably feel part of the action but you would have to keep turning this way and that to follow everything.

White cliffs of Dover (upper circle) slightly out of the action, but a great view of the whole production.

Front row on the cliffs of Dover - struggled to see the front off the stage/cafe but there were screens to film it when things were taking place there. Overall seats were great and gave a good overview of the whole set

We were sat in “The Afghan Cafe”, in the heart of the action. It’s where you should be if you want the full experience but do be prepared to become very close to the people sat nearby

Sitting upstairs in the front row £15 seats you will see everything! Best seats in the house!!!

It’s probably best to avoid the dress circle if possible because it cuts off some of the stage, however when actors do move to the blind spots you are able to watch via screens

Sat in the White Cliffs but the view was a bit restricted. Choose to sit in the main area if you can. Very expensive too

We sat in the café, very close to all the action. It was as though you were part of the play.

Seating on ground floor gave an extra charge of cast energy and the issues being played out

Theatre has been transformed for this. One tier. We were at front of it, had to lean in a bit but ok. Don't be afraid of the stalls-type area, some cheap seats there and weirdly laid in tables, benches, floor sitting. You don't really miss the action wherever you are as it v mobile performance. Also tv screens around the place. But if you have a bad back you'll know about it.

Side view of the stage- but you miss none of the action, and feel the full experience

I was able to see the stage perfectly from these seats.

Sitting in the cliffs of Dover section in the side seats and the view was totally fine

Great bench seats right in front of the stage, but you do have to look up most of the time and sometimes turn around to see the action. Also, you have the actors at very close proximity. This was not a problem for any of us, and in fact added to the experience, but I expect some people might be less comfortable.

Front row of White Cliffs of Dover. We had to lean forward for much of the show, but that was fine.

Seats in front row by stage were well positioned and others further back also for good viewing. Actors mingled in these areas. Had leg ache though as a bit squashed on the bench with bench legs in way.
