The Lyric Theatre is one of the largest venues on Broadway, with three main sections: the Orchestra, Dress Circle and Balcony. The Orchestra is divided into Left and Right with views best towards the center aisle. The back rows may feel quite distant due to the depth of the auditorium. The Dress Circle is one level above, with three sections. Seats here become much more restricted at the sides of the front row, although there are plenty of decent views available. The Balcony has similar obstructions to the Dress Circle, with distant but clean sightlines best in the Center Balcony. Boxes are also available for private seating. ## Good value seats Seats a little further back in the Orchestra are a good choice for slightly cheaper tickets. Views of the stage are comprehensive, which is perfect for the Lyric Theatre’s shows. Rows E to J in the Dress Circle are similarly good value with a sweeping view, and the front rows in the Balcony offer more distant but unobstructed and affordable seats. ## Premium seats The best seats in the Lyric Theatre are in rows A to E of the Orchestra, as central as possible. They are set at a perfect distance from the stage to avoid uncomfortable neck craning whilst still feeling totally immersed in the magic of the show. Patrons preferring an elevated view will also find rows A to C in the Center Dress Circle highly prized. ## Recent Audience Seat View Photos ### Orchestra K34 Verified View Comfort Legroom KellyCz 5' 2", 165 reviews, 2 helpful votes This is an accessible seat and was very easy to get to.

Seats are small, so if you are a big dude, you won't fit.
