Woodland Opera House Seating Chart & Ticket Guide for "Something Rotten"

Best Value Tickets (Price + View Balance)

• DRESS CIRCLE Row M ($89): Excellent elevated view with perfect sightlines to the stage. The Dress Circle offers a more intimate theater experience while still being close enough to see facial expressions.
• ORCHESTRA Row F ($89): Prime center orchestra seating at ground level. These seats put you right in the heart of the action with unobstructed views.

Sweet Spot (Good Availability & Price)

• BALCONY Row R ($89): Higher elevation but surprisingly good sightlines in this historic venue. The balcony provides a unique overhead perspective of dance numbers.
• ORCHESTRA Row E ($90): Just one row closer than our best value pick, with minimal price difference. Perfect if you prefer being slightly nearer to the stage.

Higher Tier Options (Not the Best Deals)

• DRESS CIRCLE Rows J-K ($91-92): Closer to the front of the Dress Circle section, but the angle becomes slightly more extreme. Better for those who prioritize proximity over perfect sightlines.
• ORCHESTRA Rows C-D ($91-92): Very close to the stage but you may need to look up slightly during performances. Ideal if you want to see costume details.

Premium or Last-Minute Options

• ORCHESTRA Row B ($94): The closest regular seating available. You'll feel immersed in the performance but may miss some full-stage choreography.

View Comparison

• ORCHESTRA: Ground level seating with straight-on views. Rows B-F are ideal for seeing facial expressions, while rows further back give better perspective on full-stage numbers.
• DRESS CIRCLE: Elevated first balcony with a slight downward angle. Provides excellent overall views of the stage and better appreciation of set designs.
• BALCONY: Highest seating section with the most vertical angle. While further away, the sightlines are surprisingly clean in this well-designed historic theater.

Our Recommendation

For "Something Rotten," which features elaborate dance numbers and full-cast comedy, we recommend the DRESS CIRCLE Row M ($89) as the best overall value. You'll get a perfect vantage point to appreciate both the intricate choreography and the witty wordplay. If you prefer being closer to the actors' expressions, opt for ORCHESTRA Row F ($89) instead.

Special Considerations

• The Woodland Opera House is a smaller historic venue, so even balcony seats feel relatively close to the stage compared to modern theaters.
• Dress Circle and Balcony seats require climbing stairs - consider orchestra if mobility is a concern.
• For musicals like "Something Rotten," center seats (odd numbered seats) generally provide the best experience.
