Hi. Has anyone any experience of the restricted view Upper circle seats at Wolverhampton Grand Theatre please. Looking at E33ish. States angle view of stage may not be visible (or somethig along those lines). Its only for the Lea Salonga concert so no major action to be missed.

Isn’t it this theatre that sells “listen only” seats?

Lea Salonga's concert I guess. I've sat in the upper circle there but not the restricted view ones sadly so cannot say what view would be like.
I guess the listening seats would be fine for people who are partially sighted or blind especially for concerts like this.

Some of the seats in the upper circle have limited legroom and are not at all comfortable.

Do not. I repeat do not waste your money on those seats. It is a very old fashioned horse shoe design. The further you sit over to the left or right in the circle or upper circle you will literally only see the downstage left quarter or right quarter depending on which side of the horseshoe you sit. It’s a deep stage which doesn’t help so unless she plays everything on the very edge you’re doomed.
We asked to move.
Downstairs stalls not much better. All the seats are one in back of the other and low. An average sized adult will barely see if a taller person is in front and a child will be able to see nothing.
The worst theatre I have ever had the misfortune of sitting in.
No exaggeration.
