ADVICE
So, just say one was intending on going to see La Cage aux Folles, even quite possibly looking into booking tickets... What is the difference between stalls, dress and upper, and which would you recommend?
And any tips on who to book through to get the best deal?
And any other West End tips you feel like sharing, really.

The front row generally don't have as good a view (like sitting in the front row of the cinema). You're so close to the stage, you're at a very sharp angle upwards you know? Plus, more chance of getting dragged in for audience participation.
That said, it depends a lot on the the theatre. Some, the stage is much lower, so front row doesn't matter. Or the sides have much more limited view, or the seats are much closer together (a problem for people with longer legs), so you should probably try to find someone who knows the theatre. At a pinch, first row in the dress circle is generally more costly, but safe, good tickets. Still, there is something to be said for going in a group to a stall-- better for the asides and fannish glee.

Not sure if there are boxes available for La Cage - I believe the orchestra are in them.
Front row dress circle at La Cage is somewhat obscured by a high guard rail and best avoided.
