Seating for shows?

Where is the best place to sit for Phantom? Who has phantom been lately? I may be adding it to my trip next week but still not sure! Thank you

Front row mezzanine is the ideal location for Phantom.

My friend ended up with a ticket in center orchestra via TKTS and said it was excellent as it was under the chandelier.

I've seen this show many, many times, and I think the best vantage point is center orchestra. The center section begins with rows AA and BB (which are right at the orchestra pit opening), and then A, B, C, etc. Center rows A through about L or M are usually priced as "Premium" seats because they are simply the best place to be. However, rows AA and BB offer very immersive views and you'll still have the chandelier go right over your head. The only drawback to AA and BB is that, from this close, a few elements of the stage "magic" are somewhat diminished (i.e., it becomes more obvious how things are done), but they are a great value for the price.

Some folks like the front/center mezzanine, but I did not enjoy the show from that position. The Majestic is a relatively large theatre and the mezzanine feels quite removed from the stage, in my opinion.

If you're trying to decide between a few ticket options and would like a recommendation, feel free to post or PM your options and I'll be happy to help.

Saw it back in March. I sat in Center Orchestra, Row I, Seat 108. Just about dead center, and Row I is the first orchestra row that’s actually elevated (raised). It’s about halfway back, and because it sits higher, had you seeing well over the tops of everyone’s heads. Great view!

P.S. you may want to change the title of the thread to be more specific in reference to the Majestic Theatre instead of just shows.
