Broadhurst Theatre | "BOOP! The Betty Boop Musical" Seating Guide & Best Tickets

Expert Recommendations for the Best Views & Value

The Broadhurst Theatre offers excellent sightlines throughout, but some sections provide better value than others for "BOOP! The Betty Boop Musical". Here's my breakdown of the best options at every price point:

💰 Best Value Tickets ($74-$88)

• MEZZO Rows K-L ($74-$78): Center-mezzanine seats with perfect head-on views. Row L is slightly better for seeing choreography.
• MEZZC Rows K-L ($74-$75): Same great sightlines as MEZZO but often $3-4 cheaper - the true hidden gems.
• Mezzanine Sides Row L ($79-$88): Minimal angle for significant savings. Right side (Section 3) has slightly better Broadway sightlines.

🎯 Sweet Spot (Good Availability & Price) ($104-$152)

• MEZZO Rows G-J ($104-$146): Closer center mezzanine with excellent perspective. Row G offers the best balance of proximity and full-stage view.
• ORCHO Rows Q-T ($143-$152): Rear orchestra center. While further back, these have perfect elevation to appreciate the full stage picture.
• MEZZC Rows E-F ($151-$180): Front mezzanine center - the "Goldilocks zone" for serious theatergoers who want intimacy without premium prices.

👑 Higher Tier Options (Not the best deals) ($175-$259)

• ORCHO Rows L-P ($175): Mid-orchestra center. Good legroom but overpriced compared to similar mezzanine seats.
• MEZZO Rows A-C ($220-$259): Front mezzanine - breathtaking but very steep. Not ideal for those with vertigo.
• ORCHC Rows N-P ($259): Premium orchestra side sections. Only worth it if you must be at stage level.

💎 Premium or Last-Minute ($265-$431)

• ORCHESTRA CENTER Rows G-H ($431): The famous "platinum seats" - you're practically on stage with the actors.
• MEZZC Row A ($343): First row center mezzanine - unmatched overhead view but very expensive.
• ORCHC Rows C-K ($340-$343): Front orchestra sides. Only consider if you want extreme proximity to performers.

🔍 View Differences Between Key Sections

• MEZZO vs MEZZC: MEZZO is dead center (sections 4-5), MEZZC is slightly off-center (sections 3,6). MEZZC often has better prices for nearly identical views.
• Front Mezzanine vs Mid-Orchestra: Rows A-F in mezzanine actually see more stage detail than orchestra rows L-Q, at better prices.
• Side Views: Right side (house left) generally better for this production's staging. Avoid extreme side seats beyond section 2 or 7.

🎭 My Top 3 Picks for "BOOP!"

1. MEZZC Row K ($74): The undisputed value champion - center view at mezzanine price.
2. MEZZO Row G ($104): Perfect elevation to appreciate the full cartoon-inspired set design.
3. ORCHO Row T ($152): Best orchestra value - far enough back to take in the whole spectacle.

⚠️ Seats to Approach Carefully

• Mezzanine Rows A-B: Can feel too close/steep for some viewers
• Orchestra Sides Rows D-G: May have slightly obstructed views of upstage projections
• Far Side Sections (1/8): Extreme angles make it hard to see upstage right actions

💡 Pro Tip

The Broadhurst's mezzanine overhang begins at Row J. For the most comfortable experience, choose rows F-J in mezzanine - you'll get coverage from the overhang while maintaining excellent sightlines.
