View Comparison

• Orchestra vs Mezzanine: Orchestra seats (especially ORCHC) place you closer to performers, while mezzanine (MEZZC) offers better perspective for group choreography.
• Side Sections: MEZZPV/ORCHPV have slight angled views but often better value. Avoid extreme sides beyond Row H in mezzanine.
• Row Depth: In mezzanine, Rows A-D may feel steep for some; Rows E-J offer more comfortable viewing angles.

Special Recommendations

• For Budget Buyers: MEZZPV Row D at $84 is our top value pick - same great views as more expensive front mezzanine at 40% discount.
• For Best Acoustics: MEZZC Rows H-J ($127-$158) catch the perfect sound blend from the theater's design.
• For Group Sales: MEZZO Row K has multiple 6-seat blocks available at $102-$106.
• Last-Minute Splurge: ORCHC Row A at $369 puts you just 15 feet from the performers.

Seating Chart Tips

The Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre has a relatively intimate 1,079 seat capacity with good sightlines throughout. The mezzanine overhang begins at Row M in orchestra - we recommend rows A-L for unobstructed views. For "Buena Vista Social Club," center-left seating (house right) often provides better views of the band setup.
