I am pretty inexperienced and wanted to hear some input:on these three options for To Kill a Mockingbird @ Shubert Theatre

 

Orchestra Right:: Row G seats 18,16,14

Orchestra Left:: Row H seats 17,15,13

Mezz Center: Row C 112,113,114 (aisle)

 

Tickets are priced the same. On one hand, the mezz seats are center, however the offcenter orchestra seats are a lot closer.  Thoughts?

I wouldn't do the orchestra far sides, especially the last seat, since it's right on the edge of being partial view. There are 2 musicians that are positioned on either side of the stage, and, during the courtroom scenes, there are 2 tables which could cause some obstruction, although rows G and H might be far back enough to avoid that. The mezzanine at the Shubert feels very close, and, when seated, you can't see the audience in the orchestra. I'd definitely go with mezzanine center.

I'd get the Mezz center seats. I agree with ct2nyc.

Thirded. Mezz C center is a near-perfect seat in many theatres, but it's especially ideal compared to far side orch for this production.

CT2NYC, Wick3 and Pashacar,

Thank you very much for your responses! You've eliminated any doubts or concerns I had. Just booked the Mezz C tickets for December.2019. Here is hoping Ed Harris will put on show that is near JD's performance.
