Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre Seating Guide for "The Buena Vista Social Club"

Best Value Tickets (Under $100)

• MEZZO Section Rows H-J: Excellent mid-mezzanine views at $90-91. Center-oriented seating with good elevation (Rows H-J are 12-14 rows back from mezzanine front).
• MEZZPV Rows A-F: Premium value at $90-91. Partial view designation often means minimal obstructions - typically just slight side angles in this intimate theater.

Sweet Spot Tickets ($100-150)

• Mezzanine Left/Right Rows J-K: $99-102. Side sections but with excellent diagonal sightlines to the Cuban-style stage production.
• ORCHPV Rows G-M: $114-122. Orchestra partial view seats often just mean you'll miss extreme stage corners - perfect for this music-focused show.
• MEZZC Rows H-K: $122-124. Dead-center mezzanine seats with the ideal balance of price and view.

Higher Tier Options ($150-220)

• MEZZO Rows A-G: $146-153. Front mezzanine provides the "goldilocks" view - elevated enough to see patterns in the Cuban dance numbers but close enough for facial expressions.
• ORCHO Rows P-S: $132-138. Rear orchestra still feels close in this 1,079-seat theater, with excellent sound for the Afro-Cuban music.
• Mezzanine Center Rows E-H: $157-179. Perfect for those wanting straight-on views of the band setup and main performers.

Premium Seats ($220+)

• ORCHO Rows A-L: $223-293. Front orchestra seats put you practically on stage with the musicians - essential for true Buena Vista fans.
• ORCHC Rows A-AA: $245-366. Center orchestra premium - watch for seats in rows AA-K which avoid being too close for this production's sightlines.
• MEZZC Rows A-D: $231-369. Front-center mezzanine boxes offer private-feeling experiences with perfect vantage points.

View Considerations

The Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre's shallow mezzanine overhang means even rear mezzanine seats maintain good sightlines. For "Buena Vista Social Club":

• Left orchestra/mezzanine sections (odd numbers) face the primary band setup
• Partial view seats often only miss small upstage corners
• Rows A-C in orchestra may require slight head tilting for full stage pictures
• Mezzanine rows D-H provide the ideal vertical angle for appreciating the dance choreography

Best Availability Currently

• Multiple MEZZO H-J seats at $90-91 (6+ tickets available)
• MEZZC Row H at $122 (11 tickets)
• ORCHO Row S at $132 (6 tickets)
• Mezzanine Left Row J at $123 (5 tickets)

Pro Tip

For authentic Cuban music experiences, consider MEZZC Row H ($122) - the elevated center position lets you appreciate both the intricate percussion work and horn section interplay that defines Buena Vista's sound.
