• For budget-conscious: 300-level front rows (AA-BB) offer 80% of the experience at 50% of orchestra prices
• Avoid: Back rows of 300-level (GG+) as some aerial acts may be cut off

Theater Layout Notes

The New York-New York Theater features a classic proscenium stage with three primary seating levels. The intimate 1,800-seat venue means there are no truly bad seats, but optimal viewing varies by performance type:

• Orchestra (100-level): Best for seeing facial expressions and ground-level acts
• Mezzanine (200-level): Ideal balance for seeing both floor and aerial performances
• Balcony (300-level): Best value with good overall views (front rows recommended)
