The experience
- Watch out for: Choose the McPherson section of the shared Royal & McPherson map and photo page, not the Royal Theatre diagram. Yellow on the McPherson chart marks restricted views, including some side and box positions. The website distinguishes accessible positions from technical holds, so the general chart does not establish current availability. Latecomers wait for a suitable break and may not reach their original seats immediately.
