Nederlander Theatre - "Redwood" Seating Guide: Best Value Tickets & View Recommendations

Expert Tips for Choosing the Perfect Broadway Seats

The Nederlander Theatre offers three distinct seating levels for "Redwood": Orchestra (ground floor), Mezzanine (first balcony), and Front Mezzanine (closest mezzanine sections). Below we break down the best options at every price point with specific view recommendations.

💰 Best Value Tickets (Under $150)

✅ Top Budget Picks:

• Mezzanine Left Row O ($110): Far side but excellent price for 6+ tickets. Minimal side view obstruction.
• Mezzanine Left Row L ($124): 3 rows closer than Row O for only $14 more. Best side-mezz value.
• Orchestra Left Row O ($135): Rear orchestra but centered. Perfect for first-timers wanting orchestra experience.

🎯 Sweet Spot (Best Balance of Price & View)

• Mezzanine Center Row L ($153): Dead-center view at mid-mezzanine height - ideal for seeing stage pictures.
• Orchestra Left Row M ($153): Premium orchestra location at 25% less than center orchestra seats.
• Mezzanine Row K ($155): Front mezzanine at non-premium prices. Rows J-K are the "goldilocks zone".

✨ Higher Tier Options (Premium Locations)

• Orchestra Center Row M ($232): The Broadway "sweet spot" - perfect viewing angle and distance.
• Mezzanine Center Row E ($199): First 5 rows of center mezzanine offer spectacular overhead views.
• Orchestra Right Row H ($244): Close proximity with excellent sightlines to stage right action.

💎 Premium & Last-Minute Splurges

• Orchestra Center Row A ($428): Front row energy with perfect sightlines (no heads blocking view).
• Orchestra Center Row G/H ($499): Premium center orchestra - the ultimate Broadway experience.
• Front Mezzanine Row A ($263): Best mezzanine seats with unparalleled overhead perspective.

⚠️ View Considerations

• Side Mezzanine: Rows A-J have minimal obstruction. Rows K+ may miss some upstage action.
• Orchestra Rear: Rows P-Q still offer good views (theatre is relatively intimate).
• Extreme Sides: Orch L/R beyond Row M may have 10-15% stage obstruction during scenes.

🎭 "Redwood"-Specific Recommendations

For this production with its tall tree set pieces:

• Mezzanine seats provide better perspective on vertical staging
• Orchestra center rows F-M offer ideal eye-level views
• Avoid far side seats beyond row 10 if concerned about sightlines to upper levels of the set

🔍 Pro Tip

The Nederlander's mezzanine overhang begins at Row P in orchestra - opt for rows A-O for completely unobstructed views. Mezzanine front rows (A-E) provide the most immersive experience for this visually stunning production.
