Don’t members of congress share certain privileges and are able to host events at the Kennedy Center? Warnock and Ossoff should host some kind of rally in conjunction with Parade.

So would the front of the center mezzanine be a better view for this than up close in center orchestra?

At what theater?
I was guessing the Eisenhower, as that's what the last few posts were about, but the seating chart for that theater shows no mezzanine.

The Eisenhower has a box level where the mezz would be. Both the boxes and the balcony are pretty far back. I’d sit mid orchestra if you can, otherwise the boxes and balcony are the same distance from the stage really. With the balcony being a few feet higher of course.

No, the Hobby theater in Houston where the show is currently playing, which has a pretty standard mezzanine for a large theater I would say.

^ Ah. In that case, and if it’s a pretty standard distance of mezzanine-to-stage, I’d say front and center mezz wins. In fact I’m becoming more and more convinced that front and center mezz is usually the best seat in the house for most shows in most theatres.
