Sweet Spot (Best Availability & Price)
- Upper Circle Row H ($50): Elevated but unobstructed view of the stage—perfect for budget-conscious theatergoers. The steep angle actually improves sightlines over lower rows in this section.

Key View Differences by Section
- Upper Circle: Steep rake means no heads blocking your view, but some may find the angle too severe. Best for following stage movements rather than facial details.
- Dress Circle: The golden mean—close enough for emotional engagement but high enough to appreciate staging. Rows A-C may require looking down slightly.
- Orchestra Stalls: Flat floor means taller patrons may obscure views in rear rows. Front stalls (Rows A-J) offer the most immersive experience.
Expert Recommendations

Pro Tip for The Mousetrap
This production relies heavily on subtle interactions between characters. If possible, choose central seats in any section rather than extreme sides to ensure you don't miss crucial glances or reactions that hint at the murderer's identity.
