Newman Theater Seating Chart Overview

• Orchestra: Closest to the stage, offering unobstructed views. Front rows (A-C) provide actor-level intimacy, while middle rows (D-G) balance proximity and perspective.
• Mezzanine: Elevated for a broader view. Ideal for plays with intricate staging, though some seats may have slight overhang obstructions.
• Side Boxes: Unique angled views but may miss some stage depth. Best for smaller productions.

Best Seats for Different Events

• Plays: Center Orchestra (rows D-G) for optimal sightlines.
• Musicals: Front Mezzanine for a full-stage perspective.
• Budget Picks: Side Orchestra or rear Mezzanine—still excellent views at lower prices.

Seat Views & Potential Obstructions

Most seats offer clear views, but note:

• Extreme side seats may miss far-stage action.
• Mezzanine overhang can slightly limit upward sightlines in rear rows.

VIP & Accessibility Options

• Premium Seating: Front Orchestra includes aisle access and quick exit.
• Accessibility: Wheelchair-accessible seats in Orchestra and Mezzanine, with companion seating.

Pro Tips for Choosing Seats
