Hey Everyone, I'm taking my 5 year old to her 1st Broadway Show and i was offered 2 diff areas and i wanted to know what's everyone's opinion being I've never been to the Minskoff Theater.

All the affordable price seats are on the sides but if you were offered these 3 options which would you take.

Orchestra Row G $152

Orchestra Row Row R $118

Front Mezz Row DD $118

Thanks for the help :)

I'd say orchestra row R, since you'll save a bit and it really doesn't feel that far away from the stage. Orchestra for this show is definitely more fun than the mezzanine IMO, and if you can get a seat on one of the center aisles that would be even better but it's not a huge deal.

Also if you happen to be going in February, there's the Broadway Week 2 for 1 pricing going on and they have some pretty good deals for orchestra.

Another vote for Orchestra Row R :)

Rather than start a new thread, figured I'd just use this thread to seek same advice.

If given a choice for this show (saw many years ago from Mezzanine at New Amsterdam) - would you do right orchestra seat in row F/G (seats2 and 4), or grab a center orchestra aisle seats in row Q or R? We will have younger kids and this will be their first Broadway show (ages 8 and 9)!

With kids at Lion King, always go for the centre aisle seat if you get the chance and can afford it. It's worth it just for the animals coming by in Circle of Life.

Bonus tip: if you get seats on the orchestra aisle house right (or stage left), that's the aisle where Young Simba also runs down after the Stampede.
