Westside Theatre Upstairs | "Little Shop of Horrors" Seating Guide & Best Ticket Deals

Smart Seat Selection for Off-Broadway's Most Intimate Venue

The Westside Theatre Upstairs offers an unparalleled close-up experience for "Little Shop of Horrors," with every seat within 15 rows of the stage. Our seating guide helps you navigate the three-section orchestra layout (Center/Left/Right) to find your perfect view at the best possible price.

Best Value Tickets (Under $140)

• Orchestra Right Row L ($116): Side-angle view but excellent proximity (6th row). Perfect for budget-conscious theatergoers who want center-stage visibility.
• Orchestra Right Row K ($133): One row closer than L with minimal price difference. Slightly better sightlines to center stage.
• Orchestra Left Row M ($136-137): Mirror image of Orchestra Right L/K seats. The plant Audrey II is stage left, making these great for puppet scenes.

Sweet Spot Seats (Best Balance of Price & View)

• Orchestra Center Row S ($158): Dead-center view from 8th row. The best mid-range option with perfect sightlines to all stage action.
• Orchestra Center Row M ($189): Premium center section at 6th row. Noticeably closer than S row with only $30-40 premium.

Higher Tier Options (Premium Locations)

• Orchestra Right Row B ($181): 2nd row side seats - incredible proximity but extreme angle. Best for fans wanting actor proximity over perfect sightlines.
• Orchestra Center Row P ($184-185): 7th row center - nearly identical view to S row but $25+ more. Only choose if S is sold out.
• Orchestra Left Row C ($185): 3rd row side - same notes as Row B but opposite side. Excellent for seeing facial expressions.

Premium & Last-Minute Splurges

• Orchestra Center Row A ($190): Front row center - unbeatable immersion but may require slight neck tilt. The ultimate "I want to feel part of the show" seats.
• Orchestra Center Row D ($223): 4th row center - our top recommendation if budget allows. Perfect elevation to take in the entire stage without obstruction.

Key View Differences by Section

• Center Orchestra: Perfectly framed view of all stage action. Rows A-D see actor expressions clearly; Rows M-S have ideal overall perspective.
• Left Orchestra: Better views of Audrey II (stage left) and Seymour's shop. Rows B-C catch subtle puppet movements most center seats miss.
• Right Orchestra: Strong views of Mushnik's office (stage right) and Audrey's scenes. Rows K-L offer the best value side-angle seats.

Our Top Recommendations

• Budget Pick: Orchestra Right L ($116) - Save $50+ vs center seats while still getting great sightlines
• Best Overall Value: Orchestra Center S ($158) - Perfect center view at reasonable price
• Premium Choice: Orchestra Center D ($223) - The Goldilocks zone: close but not too close
• Unique Experience: Orchestra Left C ($185) - Front-side view perfect for puppet enthusiasts
