Guide to Kiln Theatre seating plan
Stalls
At the first level, the Stalls offer an intimate space close to the stage where viewers can connect with the performers. Considering the flexible layout, nearly all seats offer a great view of the production, although the frontmost rows maybe to close considering stage-height. Seats towards the side also offer a slightly angled view, although the experience is not hindered. Some seats at the back are obtructed due to railings and equipment. For the best experience, the middle rows are an excellent choice.
Circle
Located one level above the Stalls, the Circle is ideal for enjoying a wider view of the performance. Due to the compact nature of the space, the section does not feel far from the stage despite the elevation. View from back rows may be distant, although a good rake ensures clear visibility thrughout. Seats in front are perfect for enjoying large productions. This section is only accessible by stairs and should be avoided if you have any difficulties with mobility.
