Hello,
We are planning a trip to NYC for the 2nd weekend in December. I was hoping that someone could tell me what the views are like from the mezzanine for Shrek, In The Heights, Memphis, and the Rockettes show? We have sat in Mezzanine seats for other shows but I cannot remember if they played in the theaters of the shows I listed. Any help would be greatly appreciated because I would like to purchase the tickets soon.

For Shrek and In The Heights they are fine. For Shrek do you mean front or rear? I haven't sat in the Mezz in the Shubert btu I have heard good things.

Keep in mind that Radio City has 3 mezzanines (I'm so old that I remember when they called them 'Balconies'). The First Mezzanine is preferable, but the Second is acceptable. I have sat in the Third Mezzanine, and it is waaaay up there. The Shubert Mezzanine is fine, however what they call the Balcony is very high up and you have to lean forward sometimes. Of all the venues you mentioned, only Radio City has elevators, so if stairs are a problem, keep that in mind.

The front Mezz at Shrek is fantastic. The rear is only decent through row f. The rest of the mezz from there on is like watching the show on TV.

sat in row E twice in the Shubert (where Memphis is) fine seats, right Mezz for Shrek and that was fine,, The Richard Rodgers, where in the heights is, has a fantastic mezzanine, i sat in the dead last row all the way on the left and where it was far back was a beautiful seat.. haven't been to radio city since i was about 15 so don't remember too much.
