Seating Chart Breakdown

• Orchestra (Floor): Closest to the stage, ideal for clear sightlines and acoustics. Rows A-F are premium but may lack elevation.
• Mezzanine: Elevated mid-level seating (Rows AA-DD) balances proximity and view angles—perfect for theatrical productions.
• Balcony: Budget-friendly with a steep incline, offering unobstructed views but farther from the stage.

Best Seats by Event Type

• Concerts: Center Orchestra (Rows C-H) for sound quality.
• Theater: Front Mezzanine (Rows AA-BB) for full-stage visibility.
• Dance: Side Orchestra (Rows D-G) for close-up movement details.

The Lensic’s steep design minimizes obstructions, but side Balcony seats may have slight rail interference. Mezzanine center seats offer the most balanced views.
