View Considerations

• Mezzanine vs Orchestra: The mezzanine provides better overall perspective for dance numbers, while orchestra offers closer performer connection.
• Partial View Notes: MEZZPV/ORCHPV seats may have minor obstructions from boxes or overhangs but often offer 90%+ visibility.
• Side Sections: Mezzanine Left/Right beyond Row H may require some neck adjustment but are often underpriced for their quality.
