Loose / Non-Fixed Seat Description for the Web

Christopher Short
$organization

Here at The Granada Theatre we have a few seats that are non-traditional "loose" seats of varying heights and we're trying to find a way to describe them on our website that doesn't confuse patrons or come across as a "broken" seat, and we're finding it a little difficult.  Has anyone out there come across this issue, and if so may I ask what the solution was?

Internally we've always referred to them as "Loose Seats" but patrons are often confused and think that they are broken.  Then we pondered "Non-Fixed Theater Seat" but that too can carry the suggestion that the seats are broken.

Any and all suggestions are welcome!

    Christopher,

What about "free-standing seats"? That wouldn't give the impression that the seat is broken, only that it's not bolted to other seats (or the floor).

    How about removable? Or folding seats?

    What about incorporating the word "chair" instead of seat?  From suggestions already - "Removable Chair", "Free-Standing Chair", or something like "Individual Chair".

    For me, Chair just seems to have more of an individual or moveable feel to it than Seat.

    Thanks, everyone for your input.  So far it looks like "Free-Standing Chair" might be the way to go.  Who knew describing a seat could be so tricky!

     

    Cheers!
