West Side Story Seating Advice — Page 3

JPeterman said: "I saw the show tonight from Orchestra center Row F. I usually like to sit as close as possible but I would say row F was a little too close.

I could not see any of the stage floor, the actors’ feet when standing,or about half of the actors bodies when they lay down on the ground or rolled on the ground while dancing. If you want the best orchestra seat possible I would say it is about row J.


If you already have tickets in row E, F, or G I don’t think you should bother to move them but If you are row B, C or D and paid a premium price Iwould try and move back if I were you. In tonight’s show most of the seats in the first 2 rows were empty.


The show was fantastic. I can’t wait to see it again with my family this summer.

I posted a picture of my view from row F on aviewfrommyseat.com"

It looks like you were in the exact seats I have. That's what I was worried about. I checked Telecharge and there are seats further back available for my performance. Now I'm debating whether to call and try to move my Row F seats back a few rows. With such a dance heavy show I'd like to be able to see actors feet.

It is a very dance heavy show .... row F was fine, we were F107-108. Your height may make a little bit of difference. I’m about 5’9”. If you are tall you may see dancers’ feet from row F.



I would say if you paid a premium price and you want to really get the best view, call and try to move back a few rows. H, I, J, K would be optimal.
