How to pick the best seats in a theater

The most common question I get when people tell me they want to see a Broadway show is "where should I sit?" Truthfully, where you sit is up to personal preference. Some people prefer aisle seats, while others like sitting in the mezzanine. I don't really care as long as I'm not sitting in a box seat or in a partial-view seat. Here's a guide on how to avoid doing that and make picking your seat a little bit easier!

"Partial view" is not that bad, 9/10 you're not missing anything, and good directors block their shows for "partial view" seats. Theatre is supposed to be a communal experience, not one where only people in premium seats can experience.

Thanks for that! Seems logical, but I never thought about that. Going to see Wicked at the Gershwin Theatre in November 2023.
