Just thought you'd all be interested in what looks like this new thing where Google Street View actually goes into the interior of buildings and gives you a mini virtual tour, including theatres! (Just shows I have too much time on my hands). The only ones I've found so far tough are (on my iPad so sorry if the links don't work!)

The London Palladium (with A Chorus Line marketing inside) - http://maps.gstatic....3791702295,,0,0

and the Belgrade, Coventry - http://maps.gstatic....0372576266,,0,0

Anyone found any others?

The RSC has set up one as well

http://www.rsc.org.u...rtual-tour.aspx

I think it could be useful so that I could see views from different parts of the auditorium and whether leg space is good when buying tickets. If only these tours were not limited to fixed points
My reviews can also be found at "Shall I Compare a Play to a Full Price?"
