Music Box Theatre Orchestra

With 538 Seats, the Orchestra is the largest section at Music Box Theatre and is divided into three sections- left, centre, and right. The seats in the centre are known to be the most ideal in the house, with rows E to L offering the best view of the stage. Though most seats in the left and right sections offer a good view of the stage, seats on the far left and far right offer a partially obstructed view of the stage. But since the whole play is acted out in the centre of the stage, you will not miss out on anything, no matter where you sit.

Music Box Theatre Mezzanine

The Mezzanine section of the theatre has 455 seats, all of which offer a good view of the stage. As is the case with Orchestra section, the seats on the far right and far left on the Mezzanine level have an obstructed view of the stage but not the play. Since the theatre is comparatively small, even the last row of Mezzanine gives a good view of the stage, and these seats are cheaper than the rest in the house.

Which Seats Offer the Best View?


Music Box Theatre is known to have no bad seats in the house, but as is the case with all theatres, there are some seats better than the rest. If you are on a budget, then any seat in the centre section of the Mezzanine should be good, even the last row offers good and unobstructed view of the stage. All seats above row G in Mezzanine section offer good view of the stage. If you are a little relaxed with the budget, then go for seats in rows E to L in the centre part of the Orchestra section, as they are at a perfect angle from the stage and also have a decent legroom.

Which Seats/Section Offer the Best Value for Money?


While both the premium orchestra and front mezzanine seats are amongst the most expensive in the theatre, there are some value for money options available for people who aren’t willing to spend too much on their Broadway experience.

In the orchestra section, seats in the middle rows (K to O) are relatively cheaper than the premium orchestra seats while offering a good look at the stage. When it comes to the mezzanine section, seats in the middle sections in Rows G, H and J are the best value for money seats.
