Front Mezzanine Center.

The Orchestra is not raked at all. And on the sides you get a partial view and the seats are on a slant and are not very comfortable. Definitely go with the Front Mezz. Center, aisle if possible. The seats are tight.

I think I will definitly try for Center either orchestra or FRMEZZ. I remember when i saw rent there, i was in the FRMEZZ, i was on the side and it was almost onstructive view

The way the set is designed for this production, if you're sitting anywhere in the Orchestra, you miss a huge part of the scenic design.

I was sitting side Orchestra, and missed everything going on up top, and a lot of what was going on with the scenic design on stage, as I wasn't in the center.

If I went back, I would without a doubt sit in the center of the Front Mezzanine.

I don't think you can say all side seats in the orchestra are bad for this show. We had two seats in the aisle on house left in row G and could see everything perfectly. I think the seats closer to the wall might be the problem.

Well, I was in Row C, Seat 7.

Four seats off the aisle.

Ok, looks like we got really lucky. Two seats over and it could have been a different story, but maybe it helps to be further back.

I've sat front row mezz (center) twice and it's a great view. There is a bar that is sometimes annoying, but based on what I've heard about the orchestra the mezz gives you the best view in the house. You are also able to see all the set pieces.

Mezzanine (as close to the center as possible) is the best.
