Bashir RafiuddinAugust 4, 2017I watched 42nd Street in seat D30 and the view was very good. To get cheap theatre ticket, you can download TodayTix app and make sure to buy the ticket at 10am when the price is dropping
Arvid SchneiderApril 4, 2016My first musical and it was really great. We had good places for what we paid. Toilets and snacks on every floor. Bring your own binoculars as the ones there cost 1£Upvoted Mar 1
Joel PanNovember 5, 2013Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: great sets and costumes and choreography; a true visual spectacle. Performance was great, particularly that of the five children; sadly the songs were uninspired.
Bjorn Van HoeymissenOctober 15, 2021Amazingly restored, this theatre oozes style and comfort. Might need some signs for the restrooms near the rotunda though as I saw one guest after another having to ask staff.
Bo PSeptember 18, 2013We booked seats on the balcony for the Wednesday matinee and were upgraded down to the dress circle to fill empty seats!! Great show well worth a visit.
Jason H.June 27, 2015Beautiful, grand theater with an amazing history. Now showing Charlie and the Chocolate Factory which is fun and a feast for the eyes.
SophiaJune 29, 2016if you're on the balcony, you won't be able to see the very front of the stage, but otherwise 'restricted view' isn't really a big deal - you have to climb A LOT of stairs though!
Luke MarshAugust 19, 2015Very nice venue although the legroom can be cramped but a beautiful atmosphere. Order your interval drinks before the show starts 👌
Superb and fantastic as always. Drury lane is where you can smell and taste Broadway 👍
- Nese LiDecember 15, 2018This place is Grand circle F35, amazing historical building, marvellous musical👌🏻( 42nd street musical)💗
Justin CollOctober 28, 2016Saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, was an amazing show. Theatre is nice and you get a reasonable view even from the gods!- Mei SuenMay 29, 2013London's oldest theatre, located by Covent Garden. Facilities are really good, and the grand staircase is really beautiful.
- J KimJune 3, 2017Currently showing 42nd street. One of the best shows ive ever seen. Amazing tap dancing and glamorous costumes.
Melville CarrieJuly 17, 2013Brilliant - 8 rows back from Stage was perfect placement - every but a musical and every bit spectacular :)
Dylan HenryOctober 11, 2013If you love quality musical theatre, do not see Willy Wonka (a new musical). Go home to watch the original film and save your money!
Harriet RuffJune 15, 2015Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! Beautiful old theatre! Our seats were upgraded and the show was magnificent!- Michelin Travel & LifestyleNovember 18, 2013It’s good luck to see the "Man in Grey” or the spirits of 18th century actors Charles Macklin and Joseph Grimaldi. – Green Guide Editor
Adam JenningsOctober 30, 2013Utterly amazing. A truly wonderful musical spectacular with pure magic for all ages.
Mark BarnettOctober 31, 2013Brilliant show and refreshments well organised. Amazing effects and a pure spectacle.
Jon DawsonJanuary 9, 2015Charlie and the chocolate factory was absolutely brilliant. Completely wowed our entire family
Josie CJanuary 11, 2015Not quite as stunningly ornate as some of the other old theatres in the West End.
Lisa SmythOctober 10, 2013Charlie and the chocolate factory was amazing!! Lost for words!! Everyone must see it!!!
Paul GoulbournAugust 14, 2013If you are too far back then some small parts of the show are obscured by the circle (I was in row Y).
HISTORY UKFebruary 15, 2011London’s oldest theatre is in its fourth incarnation. The third burned down in 1809. It is said to be one of the world’s most haunted theatres, so watch out for ‘The Man in Grey’!
Nicola StewartJanuary 19, 2015Charlie and Choc - songs aren't great, but it's visually impressive, especially the second half
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a great show! Go and see it if you can!
- Natalie ParchmentJune 23, 2013There are booster cushions available for children, just ask one if the ushers

"Probably the fanciest theatre I've ever been to in London. Loved the layout and the detailing in the designs are exquisite! My favourite part of the theatre would be the coloured seats. #DREAMGIRLS"
