Sweet Spot Seats ($155-$200)

• Orchestra Mid (Sections 101/103, Rows D-K): $155 seats like 103 Row D put you just 15 rows from the stage at reasonable prices.

• Orchestra Front (Sections 101-103, Rows A-C): $225-$295. Section 102 Row A provides premium orchestra position.
• Note: Mezzanine front rows (AA-BB) can have slightly obstructed views of high aerial acts.

Premium & Last-Minute Seats ($300+)

• VIP Orchestra (Sections 101-102, Rows A-C): $334-$396. Section 101 Row A puts you just feet from performers.

• Best Splurge: Section 203 Row AA ($388) - dead center with panoramic view of all performance levels.

View Comparison

• Orchestra (Sections 101-103): Best for seeing facial expressions and ground-level choreography. Rows A-H ideal for immersion.

Pro Tips

• Rows AA-DD in Mezzanine may require slight neck craning for aerial acts
• Orchestra seats beyond Row M lose some intimacy but gain better full-stage perspective
• Section 103 has convenient aisle access but slightly offset views
• For groups: Section 202 QQ has 13 available seats at $105 each

Current Best Availability
