TicketHold | Cambridge Theatre Seating Chart Guide – Best Seats & Views

Your Ultimate Guide to the Cambridge Theatre Seating Plan

The Cambridge Theatre, a historic West End venue, is renowned for its intimate atmosphere and exceptional acoustics, making it a favorite for musicals like Matilda. Understanding its seating chart ensures you get the best experience for your budget.

Seating Chart Overview

• Stalls (Orchestra): Closest to the stage, offering unobstructed views. Rows A–F are premium but may strain necks for tall patrons.
• Dress Circle (Mezzanine): Elevated for a panoramic view, with central seats (Rows A–C) being ideal for balance and comfort.
• Grand Circle (Balcony): Budget-friendly but steep; front rows (A–B) provide clear sightlines, while rear rows may feel distant.

Best Seats by Event Type

• Musicals: Stalls Rows G–M (mid-depth) or Dress Circle center for full-stage visibility.
• Plays: Stalls Rows A–D for intimacy, or Dress Circle sides for a broader perspective.

Seat Views & Obstructions

Avoid extreme side seats in Grand Circle, as they may miss action near stage edges. Stalls’ rear rows under overhangs can limit overhead views.

VIP & Accessibility

• VIP Boxes: Private spaces with premium sightlines, ideal for small groups.
• Accessibility: Wheelchair spaces in Stalls and Dress Circle, with companion seats.

Tips for Choosing Seats

• Prioritize central seats over proximity for balanced views.
• Use 3D seat maps (via TicketHold) to preview sightlines.
• Check for restricted-view discounts if budget is tight.
