🎭 Best Value Tickets ($33-$102)

• Balcony E Row N ($83): Mid-balcony with decent sightlines - good for groups (6+ tickets available).
• ORCHESTRA C Row AA ($96): Front orchestra at balcony prices - our top value pick with clear stage views.
• BALC sections D-H Rows G-J ($97-$102): Cluster of mid-balcony options with minimal price difference - choose center sections (C/D/E) for best angles.

💎 Sweet Spot ($102-$138)

• ORCHESTRA C Row Y ($101): Rear orchestra with full stage visibility and better legroom than balcony.
• BALCONY B/C Rows C-E ($137-$138): Front balcony rows - significantly better than higher balcony seats for minimal price jump.
• ORCHESTRA D Row Y ($138): Side orchestra with excellent proximity - slight angle but great for seeing facial expressions.

✨ Higher Tier Options ($140-$182)

• GRAND TIER Rows J-K ($140-$157): Elevated boxes with perfect sightlines - avoids balcony obstructions.
• ORCHESTRA BB/GG ($151-$157): Premium orchestra center sections - ideal for audiophiles with perfect acoustics.

• CENTER ORCH Row DD ($516+): Ultimate VIP experience - closest possible seats to the stage action.

🔍 View Comparison

• Balcony vs Orchestra: Balcony (BALC) offers full-stage perspective but distant views. Orchestra (ORCH) provides intimacy but may miss some choreography patterns.
• Row Letters Matter: At Altria, earlier letters (AA, BB) are closer to stage. Rows Q are rear sections with more elevation.
• Grand Tier Secret: Rows D-J in Grand Tier offer the best compromise - elevated enough for full stage views but closer than balcony.

💡 Pro Tips

• For musicals, center-left sections (ORCH D/E) often provide better views of conductor and lead entrances.
• Avoid extreme side balcony (BALC A/I) for this production - important scenes occur stage right.
• Grand Tier C/D/E offer the best value in premium sections - same views as higher-priced center boxes.
• Check for obstructed views in rear balcony - some seats may have partial obstructions from railings.

🎟️ Final Recommendation

For best overall experience, we recommend the ORCHESTRA C Row AA at $96 (front orchestra at balcony prices) or GRAND TIER Row D at $168 (perfect elevated sightlines). Budget seekers should consider BALCONY E Row N at $83 - one of the better balcony values with available group seating.
