Hi
Just wondering is there rows in the theatre that are just too good, ie. too close! Have seen good priced tickets for row D at the Victoria apollo London, is this too close, im sure i read somewhere that it was only the first two that were too close! Any advice appreciated!

not sue but D must be close to the front.

Ask the monkey. As a new user I'm not allowed to post links, but do the dubbya thing and go theatremonkey dot com. Gives all the seating plans for London theatres, also has a list of discounted tickets. Great site, I use it all the time. I love Stalls seats, the only way row D would be a problem is if the stage is too high.0

Well, it also depends on the set design of the show in question. If the show has a lot going on at height you'll get a crick in your neck. Other shows may not be a problem.Yeah, whatever. I'm a grown up, I can take it...0

To re-iterate Anna - go to Theatremonkey - i alway look on there to see the layout and check out the best seats (and best of all, what seats to avoid).Thank you all who post.0

Two comments about this: Firstly I have seen wicked at apollo victoria several times each time from the circle, and I would personally reckon row d stalls is probably a bit too close to appreciate the full spectacle of the show.
With regards to the best seats argument, I would either go about 6/7th row stalls or front of circle to get best views, and then it is personal choice, to get the best view of the stage as a whole then circle is better, however to feel more part of the action stalls are obviously better.0 -
Hi, I've done Wicked twice - row D & row T. T was better as you got a view of the whole stage. D was good but it was difficult to take in everything that was happening. Hope this helps.
I want to go again - Wicked is wicked!!
