Winter Garden Theatre Orchestra
The orchestra section in Winter Garden Theatre is larger than your regular Broadway theatre with a total seat count of 1000. The seats are divided into three subsections segregated by aisles that run on each side of the center orchestra section.
The left orchestra seats are odd numbered and fall in the range of 1 to 39 while the right orchestra has even numbered seats that fall in the range of 2-40. The center orchestra, which is also the biggest subsection, has subsequently numbered seats falling in the range of 101 to 120. All three sections have 22 rows in total extending from A, which is closest to the stage, to V which makes for the last row.
Winter Garden Theatre Mezzanine
The Winter Garden Theatre Mezzanine section is divided into four subsections with varying seat counts, bringing the total count to 486 seats.
The corner left section is the smallest with 7 rows (A-G) and odd numbered seats in the range of 1-23. The corner right section, on the other hand, is the largest with 9 rows in total (A-I) and even numbered seats falling in the range of 2-46. The center left section is odd numbered with seats numbered between 101-139 while the center right section has even numbered seats falling in the range of 102-144.
Which Seats Offer the Best View?
Marking a difference from your regular Broadway theatre, the Winter Garden is wider than it’s longer. What that means when it comes to viewing angles is that the corner seats on either side of the theatre, across both the orchestra and the mezzanine, don’t offer a clear view of the stage.
Understandably, the middle seats of premium orchestra (C-G) are considered the best in the theatre, offering a direct, unobstructed view of the stage. The price tag for these premium orchestra seats is also the heftiest in the theatre.
While premium orchestra seats are considered the best, there are many who prefer the middle seats of the front mezzanine. Specifically, the seats 101 to 114 in rows A to C, are preferred by many given that the elevation offers an overall better look at the stage.
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 (L to Q) are relatively cheaper than the premium orchestra seats while offering a good look at the stage. When it comes to the mezzanine section, the middle two sections, both odd and even numbered have good seats in rows D and E.
