Hi any advice appreciated I am taking my 7 year old nephew to this in July probably matinee, the most reasonable tickets at the moment are in the upper circle. He's a small seven so was wondering will this be too far from the stage?, the seats are in row H and one is in the aisle.

Or was wondering should I wait til nearer the day and see if there are any returns in the stalls.It's a Wednesday and not in term time.He's over from Ireland so we need to get tickets, maybe too risky to wait!

Has anyone been and where are the best views ? obviously stalls and dress circle I know.

I have looked on theatre monkey but conflicting opinions given.

Thanks

If you want an honest opinion, then yes it will be too far from the stage especially for a child . No good if you suffer from virtigo too . The seats are uncomfortable as well . It is worth paying the extra for comfort all round if you must pay to watch people show off . Only my point of view .

Thanks for replies gg &daize

gg have looked at theatre monkey and it is pretty good just thought I'd get some opinions here

absolutely true daize not mad about musicals myself but he is only seven and thought this might be the most useful show as he might get some tips on how to pay me back whilst in london

    • A reminder that this is the post-festival litter I collected a week or so after the Council had signed off Gala's litter picking activity and reopened the park to the public. For clarity this was a result of just wandering around the stage, tent & toilet areas in the south of the site for about an hour. Not difficult to see, far from a focused, professional 'pick', and not comprehensive - there will have been loads more spread over the rest of the site, which is probably still there now. Apart from being unpleasant, there's a safety aspect here - kids & dogs picking up bits of glitter balls, shards of plastic cups, baggies containing white powder?? I collected a similar amount the previous year.  I contacted Charlie Simm (Events Team) for her reaction (cc'd Renata Hamvas & Victoria Mills, Peckham Rye councillors) and received no response. When VM thankfully followed up as to all why the litter picking wasn't satisfactory, and what actions were planned to remedy this, CS just escalated it as an official complaint. This complaint was dismissed a few months later with the comment that, apart from the cable ties, there was no proof that the litter had come from the festival. RH has remained silent throughout all my correspondence. I've considered doing a comprehensive litter survey before & after the event to categorically guage the impact of the festival, using metre squares and approved methodology, maybe even inviting relevant students as a project, but I feel whatever the results, they would just be ignored by the council - completely pointless.
    • Just a quick note that my son was mugged last night on Dunstans Road just after 6pm. Two youths on bikes with balaclavas stole his phone, headphones and driver’s license near the mansion block next to Dawson’s Heights. Please be vigilant when walking in the area after dark. 
    • They clearly don’t.  I would expect better from the council.  Rather dismally, it sounds like any complaints or requests just fall on deaf ears.
