Kennedy Center Terrace Theater | Best Seats for Sesame Street Live!
Smart Seat Selection Guide for Family-Friendly Performances
Discover the perfect seats for Sesame Street Live! at Washington's intimate Terrace Theater. This 500-seat venue offers excellent sightlines throughout, but some sections provide better value for families with young children. Below is our expert breakdown of current ticket options.
Best Value Tickets (Great Views at Lower Prices)
- Orch House Right/Left - Row W ($66): Side sections but angled toward stage. Slightly obstructed far-side views are compensated by close proximity (just 15 rows back). Ideal for budget-conscious families.
- Orch House Left - Row U ($71): Same benefits as Row W but 2 rows closer. The $5 premium is worth it for better character visibility.
Sweet Spot (Best Balance of Price & View)
- Orch House Left/Right - Row K ($91): Premium location at mid-orchestra level. These seats are close enough for children to see facial expressions (rows A-K are considered "golden rows" in this venue). The side angle is minimal at this position.
Higher Tier Options (Center Views at Premium Prices)
- ORCH CENTER - Row S ($536): True center section but overpriced for a children's show. Only consider if you must have dead-center views.
- ORCH - Row M ($556): Slightly better than Row S being 6 rows closer, but same overpricing issue. These would be VIP seats for adult performances.
Key View Differences
- Side vs Center: House Right/Left sections have 15-20° angled views but maintain full stage visibility. Center sections offer straight-on perspectives.
- Row Impact: Rows A-K (front half) allow children to see puppeteers' faces clearly. Rows U-W still have good visibility of larger-than-life characters.
- Height Considerations: The Terrace Theater's steep rake means even back rows have unobstructed views over heads.
Expert Recommendations
- For Groups of 4: Take the Orch House Right/Left Row W tickets - you'll save $100+ per family compared to center sections with nearly equal enjoyment.
- For Best Experience: The Orch House Left Row K seats at $91 offer the optimal balance - close enough for child engagement without premium pricing.
- Avoid: The $500+ center orchestra seats - this pricing is disproportionate for a children's theater-in-the-round production.
- Pro Tip: Side sections actually provide better visibility of character entrances/exits from the wings.
Accessibility Notes
All listed seats are wheelchair accessible via the Terrace Theater's side entrances. The venue offers booster seats for children at no cost - ask ushers upon arrival.
