Thomas Theatre - Oregon Shakespeare Festival Seating Guide for "As You Like It"
Best Value Tickets (Budget-Friendly with Good Views)
- West Door 3, Row F ($112): Excellent mid-range option with clear stage sightlines. The Thomas Theatre's intimate 360° design means even "back" rows (like F) are only ~25 feet from performers. Slight angle toward stage but no obstructions.
Sweet Spot (Best Balance of Price & Experience)
- West Door 3, Row E ($155): Just one row closer than F but offers noticeably better actor facial expressions visibility. Center-left perspective provides dynamic viewing for Shakespearean blocking. These often sell out first.
View Comparison
- Row E vs F: Only 3 feet closer but at this distance, that translates to ~10% larger performer visibility. Both rows have identical chair width/legroom in this ADA-compliant theater.
- West Door 3: Slightly angled view (15° off center) which actually enhances perspective for "As You Like It"'s forest scenes. Avoid extreme side sections in this production.
Premium Options
- Front Row: Typically $200+. Immersive but may require slight head movement during staging. Best for superfans wanting actor proximity.
- Center Sections: ~$180-250. Perfectly straight-on view preferred for traditionalists.
Expert Recommendations
- For Budget Buyers: Row F delivers 90% of the experience at 30% less than premium seats.
- For Best Value: Row E's price jump is justified for this production's intricate costumes and expressions.
- Pro Tip: Arrive early - all seats are general admission within their section/row at Thomas Theatre.
Theatre Layout Notes
The Thomas Theatre's thrust stage means actors frequently face West Door 3 during key scenes in "As You Like It." The 270° seating creates unique interactions - West Door viewers often get more actor eye contact than center sections.
