Black on white line plan of the seating in the Stalls, in The Mayflower theatre. The stage is labelled at the bottom, and rows A to ZZ rise up above as follows:
Next to the stage is Row A, which just has seats 7 to 19 in the middle.
Next are rows B to G, which have two aisles, splitting the rows in thirds. The lower rows have less seats at the sides than the higher rows; eg. Row B has 25 seats, Row G has 37 seats.
Note that seat 1 on any row on this plan is on the left hand side of the picture; but because we are looking at a top down plan with the front of the theatre at the bottom, seat 1 will actually be on the right if you walk in from the back of the theatre, where the entrance is.
Rows A to G are included in the area of large orchestra pit. If a large orchestra pit is needed, these rows will not exist.
Next are rows H and J. These have 39 seats in total, with aisles between seats 13 and 14, and between seats 26 and 27.
Then are rows K to V. These all have 41 seats, with aisles between seats 14 and 15, and between seats 27 and 28. The aisles are stepped, with one step per row.
Rows X to Z have 39 seats; there are larger aisles, between seats 14 and 15, and between seats 25 and 26.
Row XX has 38 seats, with aisles between seats 14 and 15, and between seats 24 and 25.
The seats on Row YY are numbered up to 37, but some seats have been removed to make way for the wheelchair spaces on row ZZ. Seats 1 to 3 are together, then there is a gap for a wheelchair space on row ZZ; seats 8 and 9 are together between the wheelchair spaces; seats 13 and 14 are together between a wheelchair space and the first aisle. Seats 15 to 23 are in the middle. To the right of the second aisle, seats 24 and 25 are together; then between the gaps for wheelchair spaces are seats 29 and 30 together; and on the far right are seats 35 to 37 together.
Row ZZ has 33 seats, 8 of which are wheelchair spaces. Seats 1 to 3 are together, then 4 and 5 are wheelchair spaces; then are seats 6 and 7, followed by wheelchair spaces 8 and 9; then seats 10 to 12 before the first aisle. In the middle are seats 13 to 21 with no wheelchair spaces. After the second aisle are seats 22 to 24, followed by wheelchair spaces 25 and 26; 27 and 28 are seats, followed by wheelchair spaces 29 and 30; and on the far right are seats 31 to 33.
Behind the middle part of row ZZ are standing spaces 13 to 33.
Down the left and right sides of the plan are the standing boxes. On the left, next to seat 1 on each row, alongside rows O to T, are standing boxes 1 to 6. Standing boxes 7 to 12 are alongside rows U to Y; and standing boxes 201 to 204 are next to rows Z to YY. Standing boxes 201 to 204 can accomodate wheelchairs. There is a stepped aisle between the standing boxes and stall seating, with entrances to the standing boxes at the topmost row of each box.
On the right side of the plan is a mirror of the standing boxes, next to seat 41 on each row. Standing boxes 40 to 45 are next to rows O to T; standing boxes 34 to 39 are next to rows U to Y; and standing boxes 205 to 208 are next to rows Z to YY, with wheelchair access.
