Angela Essex Posted September 25, 2022 Posted September 25, 2022 Hello everyone. I accidentally booked 2 seats for Mayerling at the ROH and I need to return one (or sell it on here). The seats are B77 (front side amphi) and D30 central SCS. I’m torn as to which one to return and was hoping any ROH regulars on here might be able to offer some advice as to which seat to return. On one hand I like the thought of sitting down but I’ll be in the amphitheatre which I’m worried might be a bit far away. I like the view from the stalls circle but standing in the evening is suboptimal. This is one of 2 performances of Mayerling I’ve booked. The other is a stalls circle standing ticket. Any advice would be very gratefully received. Thank you in advance.

D30 SCS is a great view, but Mayerling is a lonnnnng stand! B77 in the amphi means at least you'll be sitting, but if you have a leaner-forwards numpty in front of you, it can be a pain. I'm guessing the D30 stand ticket will be a lot easier to sell on here (where you don't lose £4 transaction fee if they do sell it for you) than the other one, which is another consideration 2
bridiem Posted September 25, 2022 Posted September 25, 2022 Since your other ticket is a SCS, wouldn't it be good to get the different view from the Amphi? (If the person in front of you leans forward, a polite request to sit back may have the desired effect.) 2
LinMM Posted September 26, 2022 Posted September 26, 2022 Which dates are these seats for? If it’s the 21st ( Friday..Muntagirov) then do choose the D.30 as I will be standing a couple of places away. You can always sit down in the intervals as standers are usually first out of the auditorium to get a seat lol! 1

LinMM Posted September 26, 2022 Posted September 26, 2022 Well the 8th is a train strike day so may be wise to try and sell that one to somebody who doesn’t need the trains to get to London 😊
