I contacted the theatre with an access/medical query and this was answered with efficiency. When I arrived at the theatre my information had been passed on and all the staff I encountered went out of… Full review by SO-190

My sister and I enjoyed a show called 2:22 at the Gielgud Theatre. Special effects were wonderful, the theatre was stunning, and the line for concessions at intermission moved fast. Full review by rebeccasT2416JG
I cant decide whether to book row F in the dress circle or row O in stalls for to kill a mockingbird, can anyone help please?
A:
I always book stalls, but you can access a seating plan with views from each seat on the Gielgud Theatre website to help you decide. Enjoy the production!
Hi, what would you like to know about this attraction? I'm going to see Les Miserables next month....please could you tell me which is the nearest Underground Station & how far is the theatre from there, please?

I came with my mum who has a broken leg and is on crutches. We got a taxi from Kings cross which cost us about £13 but they dropped us off directly outside the theatre so was worth it! I know piccadilly is nearby but not sure of their disability access, you’d need to check with them I think. If you can get a taxi from there to drop you off directly outside the theatre it would be so worth it and less hassle.
Hi Does anyone know what the view is like from the stall Box C? As with all boxes it's at the side, but it's priced as a premium ticket. Thanks

I usually find the seat view for the theater online. I would check that out. There were a number of seats in this particular theater that had partially obstructed views. That was why I decided on a premium seat.
Does anyone have experience on the view from seats J18 and J19. Heard a lot about uncomfy seats and sitting between heads and being 5”8 didn’t know if this would be a problem.

Hi - I visited the Gielgud in January for the show Company and we were seated in Stalls O12 & 11 and we were pleasantly surprised how good they were. I'm 5' 7" and average build and found the rake at Row O pretty good and the seats were staggered so you could see between heads in front. The seats were also comfy, legroom good and I didin't feel hemmed in by my neighbours. However, you might like to visit Seatplan where you can see customer seat reviews for most of the London theatres and in many cases folk will have posted a photo from their seat. It seems that Row J may be poorly raked and there are a number of folk complaining about tall heads in front of them. The other site for theatre seat reviews is Theatremonkey. Hope you may find this helpful. Regards, Will T
