Scopri gli spettacoli in programma, informazioni pratiche sul teatro e consigli per la prenotazione dei biglietti prima della tua visita. Il Vaudeville Theatre ha aperto i battenti il 16 aprile 1870. Fedele al suo nome, le prime produzioni in cartellone furono una commedia e uno spettacolo burlesque. Il teatro entrò nella storia con Our Boys nel 1875, che divenne la prima produzione teatrale al mondo a raggiungere 500 repliche consecutive e, in seguito, 1.000. Nel 1889 il teatro chiuse per lavori di ristrutturazione. Alla riapertura, nel 1891, offriva una platea più ampia e confortevole. Gli anni successivi portarono una ripresa di Our Boys insieme a fortunate commedie e musical come Quality Street (di J. M. Barrie), The Catch of the Season, The Belle of Mayfair e Baby Mine, fino a quando lo scoppio della Prima guerra mondiale trasformò il teatro in una casa per l’intrattenimento leggero e le riviste musicali. Queste “revues” continuarono fino a una nuova chiusura nel 1925. Il teatro riaprì nel 1926 con interni completamente ricostruiti e mise rapidamente in scena una serie di successi, tra cui la revue R.S.V.P., la commedia The Bread-Winner e il musical Salad Days, trasferitosi dal Bristol Old Vic e capace di stabilire record nel West End con 2.283 repliche: all’epoca lo spettacolo più longevo nella storia del teatro musicale (finché non venne superato da My Fair Lady due anni dopo).

History
The Vaudeville Theatre opened on 16 April 1870. True to its name, its inaugural productions were a comedy play, and a burlesque show. The venue made history with its 1875 productions Our Boys, which became to first theatrical production in the world to reach 500 consecutive performances, and then 1,000 performances.
In 1889 the theatre was closed for refurbishment. When it reopened in 1891 it contained more spacious seating. The years that followed saw a revival of Our Boys alongside successful comedies and musicals like Quality Street (by J. M. Barrie), The Catch of the Season, The Belle of Mayfair, and Baby Mine, before the outbreak of the First World War turned the theatre into a venue for light entertainment and musical revues. These revues would run until the theatre was closed again in 1925.
The theatre reopened in 1926 with a completely reconstructed interior and quickly produced a string of successful productions including the revue R.S.V.P, the comedy The Bread-Winner, and the musical Salad Days, a transfer from Bristol Old Vic that set West-End records by running for 2,283 performances, making it the longest-running show in musical theatre history (until it was overtaken by My Fair Lady 2 years later).
In recent times, the theatre has undergone another refurbishment, produced a revival of Salad Days, hosted the Stomp for 5 years, and brought under the management of Nimax theatres.
At present, Mischief Theatre are in residence at the Vaudeville Theatre.

Seating plan and where to sit
For the best all-round view at the Vaudeville Theatre London, aim for the centre Stalls, roughly the middle rows where the rake lifts you clear of the heads in front and the high stage is no longer an issue. If you want to be right on top of the action, the front Stalls put you within touching distance, though the raised stage can crop the performers' feet. The theatre is intimate, seating around 690 people across three levels: the Stalls, the Dress Circle and the Upper Circle.
| Level | Best for | Worth knowing |
|---|---|---|
| Stalls | The best overall view, close to the stage with good legroom and a strong rake | The front rows sit below a high stage, so very close seats can lose the performers' feet. The Dress Circle overhang begins to clip the top of the set in the rear rows. |
| Dress Circle | Head-on, elevated sightlines from the centre without being far back | Support pillars affect seats towards the ends of the rows from the middle of the level backwards, and these are usually discounted to reflect it. |
| Upper Circle | The cheapest seats in the house with a clear, unobstructed head-on view | You feel the height here, and a few rear seats can be affected by the technical box, but the intimate room keeps you closer to the stage than the level suggests. |
Best seats at the Vaudeville Theatre London
For Six, the centre Stalls are the seats to beat. The show is played out like a pop concert on a single bright set, so a head-on position a few rows back lets you take in all six queens and the on-stage band without missing the choreography. The centre of the Dress Circle is a strong alternative, giving you a clean, slightly raised view of the full stage picture.
Seats to check before you book
The main things to watch are the support pillars in the Dress Circle, which affect seats towards the ends of the rows from around the middle of the level backwards, and the overhang from the circle above, which trims the top of the set for the very back Stalls and the rear Dress Circle rows. In the front Stalls, the high stage can hide the performers' feet, and a handful of rear Upper Circle seats sit near technical equipment. None of these ruin a night at a show as energetic as this one, but it is worth checking the seat view before you commit.
Best value
The Upper Circle is the pick for value, offering the lowest prices with clear, unrestricted head-on views thanks to the lack of an overhang above it. Bargain hunters can also look at the discounted pillar-affected seats at the ends of the Dress Circle rows, where the saving often outweighs the minor obstruction. If you are not sure which level suits you, our West End seating guide explains how the levels compare. Compare live prices and seat availability across every section at Six.

Went to see Six the musical on Sunday 21st December. It was absolutely brilliant. It's quite an intimate theatre not as big as other west End theatres I've been to. It is well maintained. We sat in Box D, which has a restricted view of the side of the stage but to be honest it didn't matter to me because most of the songs are performed in the middle anyway. Loved having the space to sit comfortably and so close to the stage!

Six is a fun funky musical. The singers and the songs are very fitting for each wife and made me laugh. The show is very upbeat like a disco party. If you want actually facts about Henry 8th wives and want a quiet and calm atmosphere, this show is NOT for you. Get you sparkly outfits on and enjoy the rock show. I sat in row D stalls "Sorry, not sorry 'bout what I said I'm just tryna have some fun"

Up in the circle the viewing was a little cramped. Hence four stars. But then I've just watched Six and forget the seats the performance was just fantastic. The cast had wonderful voices and the production was uplifting and sublime. My 45 Year 8 students all loved it. And given the fact that watching a musical was "gonna be boring" was how we started even better! Well done. Will deffo be going again!

We sat in seats A1-2 of the Dress Circle. Seat A1 was advertised as restricted view but there didn’t seem to be anything restricted about it. Would highly recommend. Great legroom and spacious area around these seats. Six the musical absolutely incredible. So impressed. The theatre itself is lovely and intimate. Much smaller than others in the West End.

Frequently asked questions
Where are the best seats at the Vaudeville Theatre London?
The centre Stalls give the best overall view, ideally a few rows back where the rake lifts you above the heads in front and clear of the high stage. The centre of the Dress Circle is a strong alternative, with a head-on, slightly elevated view of the whole stage.
Which seats have restricted views at the Vaudeville Theatre London?
Support pillars affect seats towards the ends of the Dress Circle rows from around the middle of the level backwards, and these are usually discounted. The overhang above trims the top of the set for the rear Stalls and back Dress Circle rows, while the front Stalls can lose the performers' feet to the high stage and a few rear Upper Circle seats sit near technical equipment.
How many seats does the Vaudeville Theatre London have?
The Vaudeville Theatre seats around 690 people across three levels. That breaks down to roughly 336 in the Stalls, 188 in the Dress Circle and 156 in the Upper Circle.

All sections are reached by steps, so there is no fully step-free route, but the Stalls can be accessed using a stair-climber platform down six steps, with two wheelchair spaces in Row M.
