Imperial Theatre - "Smash" Broadway Show Seating Guide & Ticket Recommendations

Best Value Tickets (Under $200)

• Rear Mezzanine (RMEZZ) Rows C-F: Excellent value at $146-$167 with good elevated views of the entire stage. Rows C-D offer slightly better sightlines than E-F.
• Rear Mezzanine Left/Right Row B: At $163, these side sections provide angled but unobstructed views with good proximity to the stage.

Sweet Spot (Best Balance of Price & View: $200-$280)

• Rear Mezzanine Center Rows A-G: ($273-$284) The center position makes these the best mezzanine seats - you'll see all choreography formations clearly.
• Orchestra Rows T-U Center: ($273-$282) Back orchestra but perfectly centered - ideal for taking in the full stage picture.
• Front Mezzanine Side Rows A-B: ($284) More expensive but worth it for the dramatic overhead view of dance numbers.

Higher Tier Options (Premium Views: $280-$370)

• Center Orchestra Rows K-P: ($365-$430) The "golden zone" - close enough to see facial expressions but far enough for full stage perspective.
• Front Mezzanine Center Rows A-F: ($287-$428) The most coveted mezzanine seats with perfect sightlines to all stage levels.

Premium/Last-Minute Options ($375+)

• Orchestra Rows A-J Center: ($417-$758) For those wanting the closest possible seats - you'll feel immersed in the performance.
• Front Mezzanine Center Row A: ($428) The absolute best overview seats in the house.

Key View Differences

• Orchestra vs Mezzanine: Orchestra gives proximity while mezzanine offers better views of complex choreography and set designs.
• Front vs Rear Mezzanine: Front Mezzanine (Rows A-F) has significantly better sightlines than Rear (Rows A-H) for only ~$50 more.
• Side Sections: Left/Right sections in both orchestra and mezzanine have slightly angled views but often great value.

Special Notes for This Production

"Smash" features elaborate set pieces and multi-level choreography. We recommend avoiding extreme side seats beyond Seat 10 in any row, as some staging moments may be partially obscured. The mezzanine provides particularly good views of the full visual spectacle.
