Gershwin Theatre | Wicked Broadway Seating Guide & Best Ticket Deals

Expert Tips for Choosing the Best Wicked Tickets at Gershwin Theatre

Discover the perfect seats for Wicked with our detailed breakdown of Gershwin Theatre's seating chart. Whether you're looking for budget-friendly options, premium views, or the sweet spot between price and quality, we'll help you navigate the orchestra, mezzanine, and premium sections to maximize your Broadway experience.

Best Value Tickets (Under $200)

• ORCHST Row V ($181): Side orchestra with slight angle but excellent proximity to stage. Perfect for budget-conscious fans who want orchestra access.
• ORCHESTRA RIGHT Row N ($188): Right-side orchestra with minimal obstruction - better legroom than rear center sections.
• Orchestra Stadium Left Row V ($198): Elevated stadium seating with clearer sightlines over heads compared to flat orchestra.

Sweet Spot (Best Balance of Price & View $200-$300)

• ORCH Rows EE-DD ($209-$226): Mid-orchestra with direct sightlines. Rows DD-EE offer the best value in center orchestra before prices jump.
• RMEZZ Row N ($268): Front mezzanine center - elevated perspective ideal for appreciating the full stage spectacle of Wicked's flying sequences.
• ORCH Rows B-A ($253-$275): Premium orchestra locations at 30% discount compared to center sections.

Higher Tier Options ($300-$500)

• ORCHESTRA CENTER Rows J-K ($317-$363): Prime center orchestra with perfect viewing angles for facial expressions and set details.
• ORCH Row L ($455): Front orchestra center - premium sound quality and immersion.
• CENTER MEZZANINE Row N ($627): The "gold standard" for Wicked - elevated enough to see all choreography while maintaining intimacy.

Premium/Last-Minute Options ($500+)

• ORCH CENTER Row G ($606): Ultra-premium center seats with early row benefits (seeing actors' expressions clearly).
• FLMEZZ/FRMEZZ Rows D ($667-$687): Front mezzanine boxes - private feeling with perfect vertical sightlines.
• MEZZ Row C ($707): Front and center mezzanine - considered the best overall seats in the house.

Key View Differences

• Orchestra Side vs Center: Side sections (ORCHST/ORCHESTRA RIGHT) have angled views but often better prices. Center sections offer perfect alignment with the stage.
• Row Letters Matter: At Gershwin, earlier letters (A,B,C) are closer than later letters (U,V). Jump from V to U represents significant view improvement.
• Mezzanine Advantage: For Wicked's flying scenes and large set pieces, mezzanine often provides better overall perspective than orchestra.

Our Top Recommendations

• Best Budget Pick: ORCHST Row V ($181) - unbeatable orchestra access at this price
• Smart Splurge: ORCH Row DD ($220) - center orchestra before the premium price spike
• Premium Experience: CENTER MEZZANINE Row N ($627) - the ideal Wicked viewing plane
• Group Option: ORCHESTRA RIGHT Row N ($188 x4) - great block of seats together

Seating Chart Tips

The Gershwin's wide auditorium means side seats beyond Row 15 may have obstructed views. For best results: Orchestra choose Rows A-M center or Rows A-J sides; Mezzanine prefer Rows A-F center. Avoid extreme side sections in rear mezzanine.
