Seating Breakdown & Recommendations

💰 Best Value Tickets

🎯 Sweet Spot (Good Availability & Price)

• Courtroom Stalls Row F ($132): Closer to the action while maintaining good elevation. You'll feel part of the courtroom drama without paying premium prices. Better legroom than front rows.

👑 Higher Tier Options

🔍 View Comparison

• Central Gallery: Jury-style seating with panoramic views (best for seeing all witnesses simultaneously)
• Courtroom Stalls: Traditional theater seating with more direct actor engagement (better for emotional impact)
• Row Differences: Front stalls (A-D) may require more neck movement; Rows E-F offer ideal balance; Gallery rows provide comfort but less immersion

💡 Expert Recommendations

• For first-time viewers: Choose Central Gallery to appreciate the full courtroom spectacle
• For Christie fans: Courtroom Stalls (Rows E-F) offer the most intense dramatic experience
• Group bookings: The available blocks of 8 seats in all sections are rare - ideal for theater groups

⏳ Last-Minute Tips

• Gallery seats often release last-minute deals for weekday performances
• Stalls seats in Row E occasionally upgrade to Row D at no extra cost when available

The unique courtroom staging means there are no truly bad seats, but each section offers a different perspective on the drama. Consider whether you prefer the "jury's" overview or the "court observer's" proximity when making your choice.
