Hello, we sat in row J and had an amazing view, felt like we were on top of the stage. I would imagine from row PP the view would be totally fine, the stalls are on a nice incline so everyone gets good vantage point. PP is fairly close to the back though and there may be a bit of an overhang from the dress circle giving a slightly restricted view. Overall to be honest, it's such a lovely and well designed theatre, any seat would be good. Enjoy!

Q:
What are good seats
A:
We sat 15 rows orchestra, very nice spot. But the hall is small enough that most seats are fine.
