For Tina at the Lunt, which seats would you suggest? Fifth row center mezzanine or second row orchestra, side section, on the aisle, seats 1 and 3.

Ooooh, that’s a tough one. The stage is so high at the Lunt. I’d go for 5th row mezz. All the way.
EDIT: the center mezz has a 5-star rating for its views over on aviewfrommyseat.com

Posted: 3/1/20 at 8:59pmAssuming the stage isn’t too high, I’d go for second row orchestra. I was no fan of most of the show, but being so close to the performers (especially who is on for Tina that night) during the musical numbers might compensate for the weak book.

The mezzanine is very high and too far forward; we felt like we were looking down at the tops of the performers' heads rather than at their faces.

I'm not a big fan of the mezzanine at the Lunt. From what I recall, legroom is tight and it does angle up a bit.
I saw the show from rear orchestra thanks to Audience Rewards and when I go back to see Adrienne, I probably will pay for a closer seat.

For most scenes, I don't think it would matter much. But I think the concert sequence that ends the show would best be viewed from the mezz. Second row would be way too close for full impact.

Posted: 7/8/21 at 8:25amIs this show mostly played downstage? I’m looking at tickets in rear orch but it seems like the mezz is really close to the front in this theater, so I’m assuming a majority of things upstage would be blocked?

I saw Tina in previews from left mezz row D (few seats off the aisle) and it's true that you will wind up looking on the top of performers heads. The overall panoramic view of the stage is great though, especially from the center of the mezzanine. I think if you'll go with the second row in the orchestra, you won't get the full view of the dancers legs and dance numbers are the best part of the show.
