View Comparison & Recommendations

• Balcony vs Orchestra: Balcony (200s) offers better views of aerial acts while orchestra (100s) provides intimacy with ground performers.
• Avoid Extreme Sides: Far left/right sections (201/205) have some obstructed views of certain stage elements.
• Best Overall Value: Section 203 Rows CC-DD ($204) combines central location, good price, and full stage visibility.
• Group Tip: Section 204 Row QQ has 7+ tickets available at $134 - perfect for budget-conscious groups.

Special Considerations

• The theater's "in the round" design means there are no bad seats, but center sections provide more balanced views.
• Rows A-C in orchestra may require some neck craning for aerial acts but offer incredible close-up moments.
• For first-time viewers, we recommend mid-balcony (Rows HH-JJ) to appreciate the full scope of the production.
