Scotland’s Edinburgh Playhouse originally opened in 1929 as a cinema, operating successfully for forty years. Designed by John Fairweather, the venue is modelled on New York’s Roxy Theatre, after Fairweather was inspired by the building’s splendour. In 1973, Edinburgh Playhouse closed and was sold to a property developer. In 1980, the building relaunched as a theatre and has been owned by Ambassador Theatre Group since 2010. With 3,059 seats it is the second largest theatre in the UK after the Hammersmith Apollo. Section capacities are 1587 Stalls , 631 Circle and 838 Balcony. For those looking to purchase tickets on a budget, seats towards the middle of the rear left and right sections of the Stalls and Circle offer clear views, despite being angled towards the stage. These seats are close to the stage and facial expressions will be visible. Seats in the Balcony offer clear views of the stage for a discounted price.
