Just got the last ticket to Bonnie and Clyde and wasn’t sure were it was in the theater. Thank you for explaining things so easily!

Thank you so much! As an American, I'd concocted fun imagery for "the stalls"- being some sort of Shakespearian style seating, perhaps standing room only, with loads of ancient, thick wooden beams that we peek around to watch the action onstage, obviously wearing our 17th century finery, pulling a handkerchief from our bosom to wipe a tear as we watch the play. I'm a bit sad, really, that it's just, err, the bottom floor. 🤣

Any recommendations on what seats to go for in the Drury lane!? Royal Circle rear and Grand Circle 3 rows back? Both similar priced ticket? We have two young kids with us?
