Navigating the Soho theatre seating plan

How to choose the best seats in the Soho theatre seating plan?

Soho theatre has a flexible seating capacity of around 140 to 400 seats, depending on the performance space (main theatre, upstairs, or downstairs).
The main theatre is the largest, featuring tiered seating that ensures clear sightlines from most seats.
The best views are in the centre rows of the main theatre stalls, usually rows C–F, where you’re close enough to catch expressions but far enough for a full stage view.
For value, side seats and back rows still provide good sightlines thanks to the intimate layout, and are often priced lower.
Upstairs and downstairs spaces are smaller and more intimate, so even seats further back feel close to the action.
Due to its compact design, there are very few restricted-view seats; however, seats located on the extreme sides may occasionally limit visibility.
Sitting closer is recommended for plays and comedy shows to catch expressions and timing, while central mid-rows work best for cabaret or music events.

Sections available in Soho theatre

Main House

140–150 capacity
Rows A–F

The Main House is the theatre’s primary performance space with a thrust stage. Tiered seating means even the back rows offer clear views, though Rows B–D provide the best balance of proximity and perspective.

Upstairs

90 capacity
Flexible rows

Soho Upstairs is an intimate studio space in black-box style. The seating is adaptable, but the steep rake ensures strong sightlines, making it feel close to the action no matter where you sit.

Downstairs

400 capacity
Cabaret-style tables

Soho Downstairs is the largest venue, set up with tables and chairs in a cabaret layout. It offers a relaxed, informal experience, with central tables closest to the stage being the most sought after.

Value for money seats

Main house: Side seats in Rows E–F are more affordable yet still provide a full view thanks to the compact size of the theatre.
Soho upstairs: Any seat here feels good value given the intimacy, but side seats or back rows are cheaper while still maintaining strong sightlines.
Soho downstairs: Tables slightly further back in the middle rows offer a good balance of price and visibility, with a clearer overall perspective of the stage.

Best views of the stage

Main house: Rows B–D in the centre offer the sharpest views and a strong connection with performers. The rake ensures expressions and movements are clear without feeling too close.
Soho upstairs: Front-centre rows provide an intimate experience, but since it’s a steep studio, even middle seats feel close and immersive.
Soho downstairs: Central tables closest to the stage are considered prime spots, combining direct views with cabaret ambience.

Accessible seating in the Soho theatre

Soho theatre provides step-free access to all performance spaces via lift or direct entry.
Wheelchair spaces are available in the main house (usually Row A), upstairs theatre (rear area), and the downstairs cabaret space.
Companion seating is always provided alongside wheelchair spaces.
Accessible toilets are located near each performance area and can be reached step-free.
Front-row seats in the main house are recommended for visitors with limited mobility to avoid stairs.
In the downstairs cabaret space, wheelchair users are seated at ground-level tables with clear sightlines.

Staff are trained to provide access support, including help with lift use and auditorium entry.
