Theater Scorecard
Typical VenueBroadway's largest theater (1,933 seats) delivers spectacle but the sheer size means rear orchestra and mezzanine seats feel very far from the stage. Sound systems compensate for the distance but intimacy is sacrificed. Legroom is average despite the theater's scale.
Accessibility

Best Seats
The Gershwin is a large theater, but the steep rake means even rear mezzanine seats offer decent views. Center orchestra provides the most immersive experience.
