BILLY ELLIOT - West End - Victoria Palace

Billy Elliot tickets are only £27.50 each if you request the front 2 rows

they claim its restricted view, as its eye-level with stage and not looking down on the stage - but i sat in the front row at the weekend with my kids, and you get a fantastic atmosphere being so close, and view is not a problem at all (language is a bit strong and gritty in places though !!)
you can see every emotion in the actors/actresses faces as most of the action is at the front of the stage - you just can't see their feet when they are at the back of the stage, but so what :confused: !!!

superb show

call the theatre box office direct here:

    Thanks OP. I booked this morning for my Mother's Day pressie. You have to call the Victoria Palace Box Office Direct (not Seetickets - not sure if I am allowed to post the phone number).

    They told me it was the first two rows - it's £25.00 + £2.50 administration fee per ticket Monday-Thursdays and £27.50 +£2.50 for Friday-Sun.

    I went to see this earlier this year and was in the 2nd row (I paid £35 through Get Into London Theatre and thought I had a bargain). The view was fantastic and I didn't think it was restricted at all!

    Have a great weekend! Thanks again

    no, its not right - unless they have changed the rules in the past week
    make sure you ask for the 'restricted view' seats in the front 2 rows

    phone them back and tell them you have booked and paid over the phone before for these type of tickets

    good luck

  • Front rows for Billy Elliot are good seats. They are slightly restricted as the stage is high and as it's a 'dancing' show you do miss a bit, but for the price, they are incredible value.

    In my view, the best place to watch the show from is the front 3/4 rows of the Dress Circle.

    Thanks,

    Will.
