Best Value Tickets ($74-$95)

• Rear Mezzanine Left Row L ($88): Side view but unobstructed sightlines - great for price-conscious buyers.

Sweet Spot (Good Availability & Price) ($117-$173)

• Orchestra Center (ORCHC) Rows X-Y ($132-$133): Center-line seating with perfect depth - avoids both too-close and too-far extremes.
• Rear Mezzanine Center Rows B-H ($136-$158): Elevated perspective ideal for appreciating full stage choreography and set design.
• Box Seats ($145): Unique angled views (best in Boxes C-D) with extra legroom and quick aisle access.
• Key Difference: $20-30 more than budget seats but significantly better sightlines and acoustics.

Higher Tier Options ($174-$285)

• Front Mezzanine (FMEZC) Rows A-F ($218-$310): The "goldilocks zone" - close enough for facial expressions but high enough for full stage views.
• Orchestra Rows G-Q ($163-$290): Premium sound quality and immersion. Rows K-M ($331) offer the ideal depth-to-detail ratio.
• View Note: Front Mezzanine Row B ($302) provides the best overall perspective for appreciating the Art Deco set design.

Premium & Last-Minute Options ($307+)

• Orchestra Center Rows B-D ($331-$393): Celebrity sighting territory with perfect sightlines - ideal for special occasions.
• Front Mezzanine Center Rows A-B ($302-$318): Unmatched overhead views of dance numbers and set pieces.
• ORCH CENTER Rows J-L ($505-$556): Ultimate VIP experience - close enough to see costume details while maintaining full stage visibility.
• Last-Minute Strategy: Check for ORCHO Row D ($279) releases - sometimes single premium seats become available.

Seating Section Comparison

• Orchestra Left/Right vs Center: Side sections (like ORCHO) have 5-15° viewing angles but are $50-$100 cheaper than equivalent center seats.
• Mezzanine Front vs Rear: Front Mezzanine (Rows A-F) eliminates balcony overhang issues found in some Rear Mezzanine seats.
• Box Seats Warning: Boxes A/B/F have partial obstructions - only consider Boxes C-E at this venue.

• Premium Pick: ORCHC Row M ($331) - perfect orchestra depth
• Splurge Pick: FMEZC Row B ($302) - ideal elevated view for Gatsby's lavish party scenes
