Our Recommendation
For groups: The House Left Door 5, Row O ($68) offers exceptional value. Couples should consider House Right Door 2, Row E ($108) for centered mid-section views. Theater enthusiasts will appreciate the actor proximity of House Left Door 1, Row D ($188) despite being slightly off-center.
