Eugene O'Neill Theatre Seating Guide for "The Book of Mormon"

Expert Tips to Find the Best Seats at the Right Price

The Eugene O'Neill Theatre's intimate 1,108-seat configuration means there are no terrible views, but strategic seat selection can dramatically enhance your Broadway experience. Below is our curated guide to navigating the Mezzanine and Orchestra sections for "The Book of Mormon," with recommendations based on view quality, price value, and availability.

Best Value Tickets (Under $130)

• Mezzanine Rear Sides (Row K, $90): Steep angle but full stage visibility. Ideal for budget-conscious viewers who don't mind being higher up.
• Mezzanine Left/Right (Rows J, $107): Side sections with only minor obstructions during extreme stage-left/right action. Rows F-J offer the best price-to-view ratio in the Mezzanine.
• Rear Mezzanine Center (Rows H-J, $130-157): Elevated but centered views - perfect for catching the show's intricate choreography.

Sweet Spot Seats ($130-$180)

• Mezzanine Front Sides (Rows C-D, $177-200): Closer proximity with only 15-20° viewing angles. These often sell first due to their balance of price and location.
• Orchestra Rear Center (Rows S-T, $187-202): The "Goldilocks zone" - far enough back to take in the full stage picture but with excellent elevation.
• Orchestra Sides (Rows M-Q, $178-189): For those who prefer being level with the stage. Left side (Section LEFT) tends to be slightly cheaper than right.

Premium Viewing ($200-$275)

• Front Mezzanine Center (Rows B-D, $262-277): The most coveted Mezzanine seats with panoramic views and ideal vertical sightlines to appreciate the staging.
• Orchestra Center Mid (Rows L-Q, $213-263): Perfect depth for viewing facial expressions while still seeing footwork. Row M is particularly strong for this production.
• Orchestra Front Sides (Row M, $214): Closest available seats with only a slight angle - watch for occasional obstructed views during downstage scenes.

Last-Minute & VIP Options ($500+)

• Mezzanine Box Seats (Row L, $515-535): Unique angled perspective directly overlooking the stage. Limited availability.
• Orchestra Front Center (Rows T, $616-626): Ultimate premium experience - so close you'll feel part of the show. Typically held for VIPs until final weeks.

Key Viewing Considerations

• Mezzanine vs Orchestra: The Mezzanine (especially Rows A-F) provides better overall perspective for dance-heavy numbers, while Orchestra seats excel for intimate moments.
• Side Sections: Left side (house right) has slightly better views for key scenes in Act II. Right side seats face more stage-left action.
• Row Depth: In Mezzanine, avoid Rows K-L unless budget is primary concern. In Orchestra, Rows P-T offer the best depth for this production.

Our Top 3 Recommendations

1. Mezzanine Right Front Row D ($129): Best combination of price, viewing angle, and proximity
2. Orchestra Center Row Q ($213): Premium viewing without premium price tag
3. Front Mezzanine Center Row B ($262): The ultimate "see everything" seat for visual thinkers

Pro Tip for Large Groups

The Mezzanine Left/Right sections (Rows F-J) currently have blocks of 5-7 seats available together at $107-130 - perfect for keeping your party together while maintaining good sightlines. For smaller groups, the Orchestra Rear Center (Rows S-T) has pairs available at $200 with excellent centered views.
