Young Vic

One of the lesser known theatres in London, however, it generally has great productions, and 'A Face on the Crowd' is no exception. 2 fabulous leading actors with a great ensemble in support. A modern take on fame and media infamy that some of the current generation of people wanting to be famous for being famous 'social media stars' could learn that it's not always nirvana. Awesome bar and restaurant if you have time before the show.

There isn't much space for the theatre audience when waiting for the auditorium to open or during the interval as the theatre auditorium.is through a door in a very noisy, crowded restaurant. The very wide stage looked a bit odd compared to the low number of rows, but the rake in the stalls was good, so you didn't have the heads of those in front blocking your view.

We went to see A Face In The Crowd first time at the Young Vic. Had tapas lunch upstairs first enjoyed the food. Service very friendly. Seats are padded benches good view from everywhere. We sat in last row of front stalls.

Recently visited the Young Vic for "Passing Strange" - an excellent theater-rock drama. This intimate venue, conveniently close to the underground, impressed on multiple fronts. Highlights: * Fantastic location with nearby restaurants for pre-show dining * Two-floor bar with a great balcony overlooking the main street * Efficient ticketing and entry process * Excellent seating plan with great views from almost any seat * Comfortable bench seating, even for a 2-hour show * Classic ice cream sellers during the interval * Strict enforcement of theater etiquette (no phones, no photography) * Progressive touch with unisex toilets * Relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere Our mid-first row seats offered an incredibly immersive experience. The compact size of the theater enhances the connection between audience and performers. Minor drawback: Strict no re-entry policy during the performance. Overall, the Young Vic delivers a perfect blend of convenience, comfort, and cutting-edge performances. Its commitment to both traditional theater experiences and modern inclusivity makes it a standout venue. Would love to visit again.

It's not your typical theatre stage, very industrial set up. The stage is nice but the seats/benches very uncomfortable. The play was good. The staff were friendly. We made the mistake to sit there for some finger food and drinks after the play. The bar and the atmosphere was looking nice so we thought why not? Literally 4 minutes before turning the lights off, the waiter comes and asks if we would be ordering more drinks because they would close soon but didn't say how soon and we didn't know. Most places usually do this 15-20 mins before closing. We order, he brings them and lights turn on. Security person comes and says they are closing so we had to drink our wines as if they were shots! We wouldn't have ordered them if we were told we had 5 minutes left! On the top of that, we were given a bill that included an almost £6 service fee as if we had a 3 course dinner in an awarded restaurant. We had 4 drinks and 2 small tapas plates in the bar with barely any service. Not eating or drinking there again, there are plenty of restaurants and cocktail bars near, I would only revisit to watch a play.

Good atmosphere, comfortable seats. strange rule of no entry and exits during the performance, but nice enough to ignore that. Good bar and ice cream in interval is always a good thing

Lovely theatre, not a bad seat in the house, superb shows and helpful staff. Good bar!

Relaxed theatre, with an excellent seating plan. No seats with obstructed views here. Also, banquet seating is much more comfortable than conventional theatre seats. The bar area is very relaxed and unpretentious. The play we saw was excellent, thought provoking and very reasonably priced.
