Best Value Tickets (Under $70)

• ORCHESTRA Row O ($123): Rear orchestra but with perfect head-on perspective for musical numbers.
• BALCONY Rows B-C ($124-$125): Premium balcony locations that rival many orchestra seats at lower cost.

Higher Tier Options (Premium Views)

• ORCHESTRA Rows K-M ($125-$128): Mid-orchestra perfection - close enough to see facial expressions but far enough for full stage view.
• ORCHESTRA Rows E-G ($132-$133): Exceptional proximity to stage with only slight neck craning for front rows.
• Balcony Aisle 1/9, Row A ($128): Front-row balcony with unobstructed view and rail to lean on.

Premium/Last-Minute Splurges

• Orchestra Aisle Left/Right 5, Rows B-C ($328): VIP side sections with actor eye contact and perfect acoustics.

Seating Chart Insights

• Balcony vs Orchestra: Balcony offers better overall perspective for dance numbers, while orchestra provides intimacy.
• Aisle Seats: 1-2" extra legroom and easier access, especially valuable for families with children.
• Row Differences: In orchestra, rows E-K avoid both neck strain (front) and distance (rear). In balcony, rows B-D are gold standard.
• Side Sections: Aisle 1/9 seats have slight angled views but often better value than center sections.
