Seating Chart Insights

The Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre's intimate 1,079-seat arrangement means there are few truly bad seats. However, for this music-driven show, we recommend:

• Avoid extreme side orchestra seats beyond Row P which may have obstructed views of certain stage elements.
• Mezzanine Row J and higher may feel distant from the stage energy - opt for rows A-H when possible.
• Orchestra center seats beyond Row R still offer good views but lose some performer facial expressions.

Current Best Availability

• Multiple MEZZPV seats at $89 (Rows A-F) - exceptional value
• ORCHPV Row L at $122 - great orchestra positioning
• MEZZC Row F at $187-188 - premium center mezzanine
• ORCHC Row AA at $245-268 - unforgettable front-center experience
