Best Value Tickets
For the most affordable options with good visibility, sections in Rows Q and AA in the Balcony and Orchestra offer great value. Prices start at $54, providing a balance between cost and view quality, especially in sections BALCC, BALCL, BALCR, and ORCHL, ORCHR. Sections in Rows BB and CC in the Orchestra offer similar value with slight variations in pricing ($55-$57). These seats typically provide clear sightlines of the stage with minimal obstructions.
Sweet Spot (Good Availability & Price)
The "Sweet Spot" seats are generally located in Rows AA and BB in the Orchestra and Orchestra Left/Right Center sections, priced around $54-$58. These rows are close enough to the stage for an immersive experience while still being accessible and widely available. Sections like ORCHL, ORCHR, ORCHLC, and ORCHRC in Rows AA and BB are ideal for a balanced view and cost.
Higher Tier Options (Not the Best Deals)
Seats in Rows CC and D in the Orchestra, as well as the Mezzanine sections (Rows J, K, L, M), tend to have higher prices ranging from $73 to $128. These offer closer proximity to the stage or premium viewing angles but are less cost-effective. Sections like MEZZZ, MEZZL, and LOGE provide elevated views but at a premium price point.
Premium or Last-Minute Tickets
Premium seats are located in the front Orchestra Rows (AA, BB) and Mezzanine (Rows J, K, L, M), with prices exceeding $130, and include sections like PITR and PITL at over $425. These are ideal for the best views of the stage, with unobstructed sightlines and proximity. Last-minute tickets in these sections can often be priced higher, but they guarantee premium experience.
Section & View Highlights & Differences
- Rows Q in Balcony and sections BALCC, BALCL, BALCR are higher up but offer good value for price and stage visibility. These seats are elevated, providing a broad view of the stage without the intimacy of front rows.
- Sections in Rows AA and BB in the Orchestra, especially in ORCHL, ORCHR, ORCHLC, and ORCHRC, are considered the "Sweet Spot" for their proximity and clear sightlines.
- Rows CC and D in the Orchestra are closer to the stage, offering more direct views but at increased prices and potentially limited availability.
- The Mezzanine (Rows J, K, L, M) provides an elevated perspective, ideal for those seeking a broader view, with prices increasing accordingly.
- Sections further back (e.g., Rows R, S, T in Balcony, or the upper Mezzanine levels) tend to be higher in price but may have obstructed views or less optimal sightlines.
