![]() ![]() I have a slight aversion to boxes as they can be very restricted and pretty uncomfy but for this show I think these would be ok. ![]() Obviously very uncomfortable BUT a really great view for only £10! One thing to note – there is standing room directly behind you and the creak of the wood behind your head where people are leaning is distracting at times. ![]() Despite being the very last row of the dress circle, you don’t feel very distant from the stage. I had to lean slightly to the side for the entire performance but the view was good. ![]() The view from here is very good and you can see the entire stage perfectly well IF the person in front of you is not very tall. This is where I actually sat and coincidentally the worst photo I took (I amaze myself sometimes). With excellent rake in the dress circle these seats provide a fantastic view of the entire stage which is unlikely to be obstructed by your fellow patrons. These seats are fantastic and your view is unobstructed, none of the action on stage would be missed.Ī fantastic unobstructed view. The circle is pretty narrow and not curved meaning the side seats don’t really give you a side view at all. This was taken from the very last seat on row E. The safety rail and lighting rig may get in your way slightly if you’re in the more central seats, but not enough to spoil your experience. It lines up with around row K of the stalls so you feel very close to the action and its almost on the same level as the stage. A letterbox view but actually not bad.Ī fantastic, unobstructed view of the stage. If you’re like me and you hate overhang, you’ll be disappointed by the rather large overhang from the dress circle here although it will block absolutely nothing on stage. Again, the rake is ok but when you’re so far back you’ve much more chance of your view being a obstructed by your fellow audience members heads/top knots. This theatre is a nice size and the back of the stalls doesn’t actually feel too distant from the stage. You’re also close enough to the stage that you’ll be looking up slightly anyway which always helps! Of course, you always run the risk of needing to bob from side to side in the stalls but these seats are a pretty good bet. There are no speakers at the side of the stage (hallelujah) and the set for Come From Away is minimal, so this actually isn’t a bad view at all! Sure, you’ll miss a slither of the stage closest to you but in this particular musical the vast majority of the action is centre stage.Ī great view, and it should be for the price! The rake in the stalls of the Phoenix is average so your view shouldn’t be too obstructed but its always a risk. This was taken from the very last seat on row F (that would make it F1 I believe). These are day seats and so are sold on the day at £20, not bad for the price – I’ll definitely be making the most of this deal. In this production there wont be any set pieces to get in your way so thats a bonus. The view will be restricted, you’ll have to crane your neck and you might get spat on but you’ll be as close as you can get to the action. Think of it as peering over your next door neighbours fence to get a peek into their garden (don’t try this). The stage is very high and you are very close to it. I think every one needs a ticket to see this show and so here I am, once again, to help you choose your seats! Here’s an overview of what you can expect from your view at the Phoenix Theatre. It tells a hugely important tale and it truly does feel like the show we all need right now. Not only is it laugh out loud funny but this show is powerful. It is exquisite from start to finish, from the writing to the staging and of course the phenomenal acting. Come From Away is the best piece of theatre I have ever seen – read my review here. ![]()
