Qualifications for West End, Off West End, etc

Hi everyone, just a quick question!

I know that in New York, Broadway theatres are determined by their seating capacity (well, at least I think I know that. Correct me if I'm wrong!). How is this determined in the West End? I've seen some West End theatres with seating capacities that in New York would be considered "off," so I'm curious as to how these regulations differ.

Thanks for any answers!


ETA: Meant to post this in the West End board, but maybe it'll still get some responses here. Sorry! Updated On: 3/20/13 at 07:19 AM
