Tom Patterson Theatre Seating Guide for "The Winter's Tale"
Best Value Tickets (Budget-Friendly with Good Views)
- Aisle 1 & Aisle 4 (Row H - $215): Excellent mid-range seats with clear sightlines to the thrust stage. Being in Row H puts you at ideal eye-level with performers (no neck strain) while maintaining intimacy. Aisle seats offer easier entry/exit.
- View Comparison: Aisle 1 is slightly closer to stage-left entrances while Aisle 4 faces more central action. Both provide 160-degree viewing angles typical of this theatre's design.
Sweet Spot (Best Balance of Price & Experience)
- MAIN FLOOR (Row GA - $494 for 4): General admission floor seating puts you within 15 feet of performers. Perfect for groups wanting immersive, flexible seating. These are the most "Shakespearean" seats, replicating original Globe Theatre groundling experiences.
- Pro Tip: Arrive 30 mins early for GA to secure front cushion positions. The floor slopes gently so even rear GA seats have good sightlines.
Higher Tier Options (Premium Pricing)
- Aisle Rows A-C ($300+): Front rows offer actor-eye-contact intimacy but require more upward viewing. Best for die-hard fans wanting to see costume details and facial expressions clearly.
- Center Sections: Typically $50-75 more than aisle seats for more symmetrical views, though the theatre's thrust stage makes most seats equally engaging.
Seating Chart Insights
- Acoustics: All seats have excellent sound as the theatre was specifically designed for Shakespearean dialogue projection.
- Obstructions: No true obstructed views, but extreme side seats may miss some upstage business during scene transitions.
- Comfort: Cushioned benches with back support in all sections except GA floor (bring a cushion or rent one for $5).
Our Recommendation
For first-time visitors, we suggest the Aisle 1 Row H tickets ($215) - they offer the perfect introduction to this unique theatre's sightlines without breaking the bank. For a truly special experience, the GA floor seats ($123.50/person) create unforgettable moments when actors move through the audience during performances.
Pro Tips
- The theatre's intimate size (only 7 rows deep) means even "rear" seats are closer than most theatres' front rows.
- Matinee performances often have better availability and sometimes lower dynamic pricing.
- Check for student/elder discounts day-of if your schedule is flexible.
