The 39 Steps - Official Site: Find Your Seats

Finding Your Seats

The Criterion Theatre is one of London’s most beautiful, charming and intimate theatres in the heart of West End. The entrance which sits in Piccadilly Circus leads to a beautiful underground auditorium with a capacity of 588 seats.

Stalls – The stall seats sit right in front of the stage.
Lower Circle – Just above the stall seats is the lower circle. Patrons can enjoy an elevated view of the stage.
Upper Circle – Higher still than the lower circle the upper circle looks down on the action.
Boxes – Either side of the auditorium boxes allow you your own private space close to the action. (Room for 2)

Restricted Views – At the Criterion some seats have partially restricted views due to thin supporting columns for the Dress and Upper Circles.

* Excellent show, funny, slick, brilliant acting and timing. Would fully recommend it to anyone who wants to have fun. - Marion H, London * As a drama student i learnt many techniques from this performance, it was amazing! the acting was slick and the elements of melodrama and slapstick helped made it even more hilarious! It is a wonderful play and I would highly recommend it! - Allison Daniels, Criterion Theatre * The trip to 39 Steps was a birthday surprise organised by my husband. It was a wonderful gift. I was recommend the experience to anyone who wants a wonderful evening out in London. The acting was slick. The dialogue, witty. The jokes came thick and fast.

Very rarely do I see a theatre performance twice just for entertainment but I'm going again! - Jay Derren, Criterion theatre * Fantastic! I loved it. It's a spy thriller/comedy. I took my sisters to see it for a graduation present and they were thrilled. Very rarely do I see a theatre performance twice just for entertainment but I'm going again! - Jay Derren, Criterion theatre * As a drama student I was always very skeptical about 4 actors playing a vast amount of characters. But to my amazement it was pulled off beautifully. It had comedy, a good strong story line and amazing actors! I would definitively recommend it to anyone, and I would be happy to watch it a second time! Great job! - Richard Walker, The Criterion Theatre *
