Seating plan for St Martin's Theatre at: <BR>http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/venue/uk1/533/seat1.html <BR>Usually the best seats are the middle rows of the central section in the stalls (ground floor - US first floor) and the first row of the central section in the dress circle (first floor - US second floor).

Seating plan for St Martin's Theatre where the Mousetrap is shown: <BR>http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/venue/uk1/533/seat1.html <BR>Usually, the best seats are in the central section of the stalls (US first floor) and the first row of the central section of the dress circle (US second floor). From both these seats the stage will be right in front of you. I personally prefer the dress circle as there's nobody in front of me.

Dear Mike, <BR>Most theatres have 3 levels: <BR>The ground level - The Stalls <BR>The first level balcony - The circle <BR>The second level balcony - The second circle <BR>The best seating in ANY theatre is the 1st to the 3rd row of the circle (first balcony) - and the seats must be closer to the centre rather than the outside. <BR>Hope this helps.

I have a related question - how is the legroom in London theatres? We've stopped going in the U.S. because we're both very uncomfortable in the tiny seats (M 6'3", F 5'11"). It makes it very hard to enjoy a good play, and impossible for a bad one - will we do any better in London?
