Imperial Theatre - "Smash" Broadway Show Seating Guide & Best Ticket Deals
Expert Recommendations for the Best Views & Value at Imperial Theatre
As a historic Broadway venue with 1,443 seats, the Imperial Theatre offers diverse seating options for "Smash." Below is my curated guide to help you find the perfect balance of price and view quality based on current ticket availability.
🎯 Best Value Tickets ($117-$136)
- Rear Mezzanine (Rows C-G): RMEZZ sections offer the most affordable Broadway experience. While these are furthest from stage, the elevated view provides excellent sightlines of choreography. Rows E-G ($117-$126) are particularly good for budget-conscious groups (4+ tickets available).
- Sweet Spot: Rear Mezzanine Center Row H ($135) - centered view with minimal obstruction at mid-range price.
⭐ Sweet Spot Seats ($157-$209)
- Front Mezzanine Sides: Rows B-F ($269-$284) - closer angled views with good elevation to appreciate staging.
- Orchestra Rear Center: Rows Q-S ($161-$162) - direct central views at 60% of premium seat prices.
- Best Deal: Orchestra Right/Left Row J ($212) - premium sound quality at non-premium prices.
💎 Premium Seating ($243-$371)
- Center Orchestra: Rows AA-A ($243-$362) - unparalleled proximity to performers. Row AA offers legroom.
- Front Mezzanine Center: Rows A-F ($273-$371) - ideal for viewers who prefer taking in the full stage picture.
- VIP Note: Orchestra Center Row J ($505) - celebrity sighting area with perfect sightlines.
🔍 View Comparison
- Orchestra: Rows A-J (Premium), K-T (Mid), U-Z (Rear) - flat floor means taller viewers may obstruct sightlines in rear.
- Mezzanine: 15° elevation ensures clear views over heads. Front Mezzanine (Rows A-F) feels closer than many Orchestra seats.
- Obstruction Warning: Extreme side seats in Orchestra may miss upstage corners. Mezzanine overhang begins at Row G.
💡 Pro Tips
- Groups of 4+ should target RMEZZ sections (12 tickets available in Rows C-G at $117-$162).
- Last-minute buyers may find discounted Orchestra seats day-of-show (check our mobile app).
- For dance-heavy numbers, Mezzanine Center provides the best overhead perspective.
- Avoid Rear Mezzanine Rows H-J if you're sensitive to feeling distant from the action.
📅 Current Best Availability
- 12+ tickets: Rear Mezzanine Rows C-G ($117-$162)
- 6-8 tickets: Orchestra Rows Q-S ($161-$162)
- 2-4 tickets: Front Mezzanine Center Rows C-D ($280-$290)
The Imperial Theatre's shallow balcony design means even "rear" Mezzanine seats are closer than typical Broadway houses. For "Smash," where ensemble numbers shine, I recommend prioritizing centered views over absolute proximity.
