Buy the Best Seat in the House

“Orchestra: I’ve sat in the orchestra for the majority of performances. I’d say about 15 times, mostly in the front row. Orchestra isn’t always the best, and front row leaves for a sort of awkward looking up the nose of the actors sort of view [...] Mezzanine: One level up from the dress circle is Mezz which in my opinion if you’re within the first few rows, is the best seat in the house. The acoustics are wonderful and the view is amazing if you want to see the entire thing. I sat 5 rows in and had a perfect view of the entire stage and everything going on.”

“That’s generally true but I won first row lottery seats for Six at the Brooks Atkinson and they were fantastic. The stage is lower in that theater and the first row was pretty far back from the stage. Front row at the Wintergarden is good too. But I think they’re pretty much exceptions.”
