Is there a trick to get better seats (i.e. arriving to the theatre earlier), or are they already allocated? (I'm aware they are purchased by section, but e.g. rear orchestra vs front mezz - there is a bit of a difference.
thanks!
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)

You're tickets are regular seat assignments.
Nothing to know beforehand except this: if you are an autograph hound, ask for autographs OUTSIDE of the theater, NOT in the lobby after the show.
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
