Theatre is expensive. There is no denying this. If you want the best (or even 3rd or 4th best) view in the house, you have to pay for it. Have you ever forked over a handsome sum for a show you were excited to see, only to have the experience ruined by a terrible view, or legroom that can be best described as “non-existent”?
If you could have experienced the view, or been warned about the legroom, before you booked the seat, would you still have gone ahead? Maybe you found yourself looking over at people in the next row, or a few seats to your left, and thinking “I wish I’d booked those seats.” You then tried to get that thought out of your head and enjoy the show, but the damage is done. You probably would have enjoyed that spectacular, end-of-Act-1 number if you could still feel your legs.
SeatPlan.com is putting an end to this experience. Their mission is to help entertainment fans book the best seats. To do this, they compile thousands of view-from-seat photos, submitted by real theatregoers, one interactive seat maps that allow customers to see the view from the seat they are considering. Essentially, this gives you the chance to look before you book. Each review includes a rating for view, comfort and legroom, giving you the full rundown of what’s important for any theatre experience.
Be rewarded for going to the theatre
No doubt you have seen people take photos of the stage from their seat before a show. You may enjoy taking them yourself as a little reminder. At SeatPlan, you can upload these photos with a review of your seat to help other theatregoers make an informed choice of where to book.
For each review you upload, you will earn Rewards Points, which can be saved up and redeemed on theatre vouchers. This means that the more theatre you see, the more photos you take, the more points you earn, the more you can save on future theatre bookings!
