    If you're out of shape, don't book seats in the grand circle. No lifts! A very grand old theatre full of characters and ghosts. Seats not designed for the tall or wide but I love it.

    The new home of Hamilton in London - freshly reopened after a 20 month refurb, the refit is still being completed but so far looks great.

    Billy Elliot is a wonderful story and well performed. Be warned theater is huge and night I went filled with tour groups. Seats up close are sold at quite a discount and are just great for this show

    Probably one of the best theatres I've ever been to! Spacious, very organised, and the views from our seats were amazing!

    The deco is inspired by Gustav Klimt, and recently renovated especially for Hamilton the musical, which is AMAZING!

    Get discounted, same-day tickets at TKTS. Nearest tube station is Leicester Square. Skip all the other kiosks. TKTS is the real deal. 😉

    Hamilton is great and worth checking out. Don’t expect it to live up to the hype though. They only use one set.

    Dress circle 4 seats back in the centre are amazing seats! I'd say they are the best seats in the house!

    Good location, the seats in average have a good view. I came to see Billy Elliot and was wonderful.

    If you want to see a truly British musical Billy Elliot is the show for you! With music by Sir Elton John & a magnificent cast, London is the best city to see this feel-good show!

    It's a labyrinth, which is good since most people are lost and crowd is spread out!

    Small bar at back of stalls tends to be quieter than large stalls bar at the front

    They tell you to get here an hour before the show but you can't get to your seat straight away and there aren't enough seats in the bar so you have to stand for ages or sit on the floor....

    Amazing show. Well worth getting back to your seat early for the second half as well for added value.

    If collecting pre-booked tickets for another day, try to go between 8-8.30 when the show is on to avoid waiting
