The Vaudeville Theatre has three seating levels: Stalls, Dress Circle and Upper Circle. It’s an intimate, rectangular auditorium with head-on views of the stage, which suits a high-energy concert-style show like SIX perfectly.
The Stalls hold 336 seats and put you right in front of the queens for the full concert experience. Central rows give the clearest, most immersive view.
The Dress Circle holds 188 seats and offers an excellent overview of the stage. Front and middle rows are the pick of the level.
The Upper Circle holds 156 seats and is the highest, most affordable level. A few pillars can cause minor obstructions towards the rear, so it’s worth checking reviews for your row.
The Vaudeville Theatre is on the Strand, close to Covent Garden. The nearest tube station is Charing Cross (Bakerloo and Northern lines), just a short walk away, with Covent Garden and Embankment also close by.
The Vaudeville Theatre opened on 16th April 1870, designed by C. J. Phipps, originally staging vaudeville shows and musical revues as its name suggests. The auditorium was substantially rebuilt in 1926 by Robert Atkinson, changing its shape from a horseshoe to the rectangle seen today.
The theatre hosted the record-breaking musical Salad Days after it transferred here in 1954, and more recently has been home to SIX the Musical since September 2021. It’s a Grade II listed building and is owned and operated by Nimax Theatres.
The Vaudeville Theatre has a capacity of 691 across its three levels: Stalls, Dress Circle and Upper Circle.

The theatre offers step-free access to the Stalls level, though as with many historic West End venues there’s no lift to the upper circles.
The Upper Circle is a 54-step climb from the foyer with no lift, and the stairs up there are noticeably narrow, though handrails run down both sides and the step edges are highlighted for safety. The Dress Circle is an easier climb at around 22 steps if you’d rather not go all the way to the top. If heights or narrow stairways are a concern, Stalls or Dress Circle seats are the comfier choice – the box office can advise when you book.
Charing Cross is the closest, with Covent Garden and Embankment also nearby.
Central Stalls give the most immersive, concert-like experience of SIX, though the Dress Circle offers an excellent overview of the whole stage too.
You can book tickets for SIX at the Vaudeville Theatre directly through the official show website. I’d always recommend booking through the show’s own site or a trusted official retailer to avoid inflated resale prices.
