After Hay Fever, Wyndham’s has Mischief Theatre’s Christmas Carol Goes Wrong booking from 18th December 2026, followed by John Proctor Is the Villain from 2nd February 2027. I’ll update this page as further shows are confirmed.
Wyndham’s Theatre has four seating levels: Stalls, Royal Circle, Grand Circle and Balcony. It’s an intimate Victorian house seating under 750, so there’s a good, close view of the stage from every level.
The Stalls hold 363 seats and put you closest to the action, ideal for catching every bit of a play’s dialogue and performances up close. Central rows give the clearest view.
The Royal Circle holds 173 seats and offers a great overview of the stage. Front and middle rows are the pick of the level.
The Grand Circle holds 114 seats and sits higher up at a lower price, with a clear view given the theatre’s compact scale.
The Balcony holds 96 seats and is the highest, most affordable level. It’s a steep climb, but the theatre’s intimate size keeps you genuinely close to the stage.
Wyndham’s Theatre is on Charing Cross Road, close to Leicester Square. The nearest tube station is Leicester Square (Piccadilly and Northern lines), just a couple of minutes’ walk away, with Covent Garden also close by.
Wyndham’s Theatre opened on 16th November 1899 in the presence of the Prince of Wales, built by and named after the actor-manager Charles Wyndham, and designed by W. G. R. Sprague. It’s a Grade II listed building, given that status in 2006.
The theatre has built a reputation for hosting acclaimed transfers from institutions like the National Theatre and Royal Court, including productions of The Kite Runner, Hamlet, Twelfth Night and Sunday in the Park with George. It’s owned and operated by Delfont Mackintosh Theatres.

Hay Fever, starring Christine Baranski and Richard E. Grant, opens on 22nd September 2026, booking through to 12th December.
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 top-tier Grand Circle involves 40 steps with no lift, and it has a reputation among regular theatregoers as one of the more height-inducing perches in the West End, with the steep rake and low sense of separation from the edge unsettling some visitors. The Royal Circle below is a gentler 23-step climb, with lift access available to the wheelchair spaces via the Charing Cross Road entrance. If heights aren’t for you, Stalls or Royal Circle seats are a much steadier bet – just flag it when booking.
Leicester Square is the closest, with Covent Garden also nearby.
Central Stalls and Royal Circle both give a strong, close view of the performances, which suits a dialogue-driven comedy like Hay Fever particularly well.
You can book tickets for Hay Fever at Wyndham’s Theatre directly through the official theatre website. I’d always recommend booking through the theatre’s own site or a trusted official retailer to avoid inflated resale prices.
