Kuss Auditorium Seating Chart & Seat Views – Best Seats for Every Event

Your Guide to the Perfect Seat at Clark State’s Premier Venue

The Kuss Auditorium at Clark State Community College is a 1,400-seat venue renowned for its intimate atmosphere and exceptional acoustics, hosting concerts, theater productions, and lectures. Understanding its seating chart ensures you pick the best spot for your event.

Seating Chart Overview

• Orchestra (Floor): Closest to the stage, offering unobstructed views—ideal for concerts and performances. Rows A-F are premium but may lack elevation.
• Loge (Lower Balcony): Elevated for better sightlines over taller attendees. Mid-loge seats (center sections) balance proximity and perspective.
• Balcony (Upper Tier): Budget-friendly with a full-stage view, though distant for detail-heavy shows. Avoid far-side seats for skewed angles.

Best Seats by Event Type

• Concerts: Center orchestra (Rows C-H) or loge for optimal sound and visibility.
• Theater: Loge front row (elevation avoids neck strain) or mid-orchestra.
• Lectures: Any center-section seat for clear sightlines to the podium.

VIP & Accessibility

• VIP Boxes: Private loge areas with exclusive access and premium views.
• Accessibility: Wheelchair-accessible seating in orchestra rear and loge, with companion seats.

Pro Tips

• Use the venue’s virtual tour to preview sightlines.
• For acoustics, avoid extreme sides or under-balcony overhangs.
• Check for obstructed views (e.g., railings) in front-row balcony.
