Orpheum Theatre - Memphis Seating Guide for "The Wiz"
Best Value Tickets (Under $80)
- Upper Gallery (UGALR/UGALC): Rows E-F ($62-$68) - Elevated side views but excellent value. Front rows (E) offer slightly better sightlines over the balcony rail.
- Lower Gallery Center (LGALC): Row B ($77) - Central view at balcony level, better than upper gallery for minimal price increase.
Sweet Spot (Best Balance of Price & View - $78-$87)
- Lower Gallery Front Rows (A-B): All sections ($78-$87) - First 2 rows of lower gallery provide significantly better angles than upper sections. LGALLC/LGALRC (left/right center) offer diagonal views toward stage.
- Pro Tip: LGALR Row A ($84) vs. LGALR Row D ($78) - Paying $6 more for front row avoids looking through 3 rows of heads.
Higher Tier Options ($117-$132)
- Balcony Center (BALCC): Rows C-D ($117-$132) - Direct frontal views. Row D is same price as side balconies but with better sightlines.
- Orchestra Rear (ORCHL/ORCHR): Rows AA-T ($118-$132) - Floor seating but very far back. Only choose if you prefer being on main level over better views from elevated sections.
Premium Seating ($145-$211)
- Orchestra Right Center (ORCHRC): Rows AA-DD ($145-$211) - Best floor seats available, center-right placement ideal for musicals.
- Grand Tier (GTL/GTR): Rows B-C ($146-$211) - "Box seat" experience with private feel and excellent sightlines to stage.
Viewing Notes
- Gallery Seating: All gallery seats are steeply angled - front rows (A-B) prevent neck strain compared to rear rows.
- Obstruction Warning: Balcony overhang affects views from Rows E-F in Upper Gallery - choose Lower Gallery when possible.
- Stage Visibility: For "The Wiz", center-left sections (LGALLC/BALCLC) provide best views of stage-left action where key scenes occur.
Our Top 3 Picks
- LGALLC Row A ($85): Lower gallery front row with diagonal center view - best value in the house.
- BALCC Row C ($130): True center balcony for those wanting straight-on perspective.
- ORCHRC Row AA ($146): Splurge-worthy floor seats with optimal viewing distance.
