Stalls = ground floor in front of stage. More expensive.
Circle = first floor balcony. Less expensive.

View slightly worse from circle, detached feeling.

That is a big theatre but gives you an idea of where the different seats are.

If you're in the stalls you don't want to be too close to the front or your neck will hurt by the end.

Also, yay I won a drink!

Hmmm...unlikely. In a lot of theatres, the circle overhangs the stalls so if you're at the back of the stalls your view can be impeded and even if it is not it feels uncomfortable with a fairly low ceiling above you. Also they are in the corner so you'll have a strange view of the stage.

Check out this website:

It lets you know which seats are best for viewing and value for money.

Oh and its a great show, I have seen it twice once on Broadway and once in London.
