The Avon Theatre's intimate 1,100-seat configuration offers excellent sightlines throughout, but strategic seat selection can dramatically enhance your Shakespeare experience. Below is my curated analysis of current ticket options for Macbeth, categorized by value and viewing experience.
Best Value Tickets (Under $100)
- Balc Centre Row P ($68): Elevated but surprisingly good sightlines to the thrust stage. Perfect for budget-conscious theatergoers who don't mind stairs.
- Balc Left Row G ($68): Side angle but close to the stage - ideal for seeing facial expressions. Slight obstruction of far-right staging.
- Orch Right Row V ($68): Rear orchestra but central enough for good perspective of the witches' scenes. Legroom may be tight.
Sweet Spot (Best Balance of Price & View)
- Orch Centre Row O ($207-208): The theatrical "golden zone" - close enough to see subtle gestures but far enough for full stage comprehension. Macbeth's soliloquies shine here.
- Balc Centre Row E ($208): First balcony center provides a director's-eye view of the battle scenes. No leaning forward required.
- Orch Left Row H ($208): Slightly angled but excellent proximity for the banquet scene. Minimal view obstruction.
Higher Tier Options (Premium Views)
- Balc Centre Rows C/D ($234): Front balcony center - immersive for the supernatural elements. Perfect for appreciating the lighting design.

Premium & Last-Minute Splurges
- Orch Centre Row BB ($264): Ultra-close for Lady Macbeth's sleepwalking scene - you'll hear the whisper textures.

- Orch Centre Row F ($329): The VIP experience - close enough to see the actors breathe during "Tomorrow and tomorrow".
View Comparison Guide
- Orchestra vs. Balcony: Orchestra seats (Rows A-V) place you at stage level while balcony (Rows A-P) offers a more cinematic view. For Macbeth, balcony reveals more of the witches' aerial choreography.
- Center vs. Side: Center sections provide the full picture of Macbeth's descent, while side sections (Left/Right) intensify the intimate moments.
- Front Rows Warning: Rows A-C may require some neck craning during the battle scenes due to the thrust stage design.
Pro Tips
- The $68 balcony tickets offer 80% of the experience at 30% of premium prices
- Rows H-O in any center section provide the best "three witches" visibility
- Left side sections favor Lady Macbeth's chamber scenes
- Consider pairing rear orchestra with opera glasses for budget-friendly clarity
Final Recommendation
For first-time attendees, the Balc Centre Row E at $208 delivers Stratford's signature theatrical magic at a reasonable price.
