Front Mezzanine vs Orchestra at Gershwin
 
I am researching different tickets to Wicked for my upcoming trip to NYC. I am in need of some opinions about seating: Does Front Mezzanine Row A (not sure about the seat location) or Center Orchestra Row H (again, no exact seat) offer a better "show."

Meaning, does seeing it higher up offer a better perspective or should I opt for being closer? I have read some mixed reviews.

Just curious about your opinions. Thanks!

I'm often a big fan of front row mezzanine seats, especially for musicals, but in the Gershwin, that's a pretty long way back. Center orchestra row H? Grab them and run -- FAR BETTER! It's also almost like stadium seating in the Gershwin, so you are elevated row by row. Those ROW H seats are fantastic.

We had front row mezzanine seats for Wicked and thought they were just fine. Up high, we were able to see everything.

H Center! We had K to the side and it was good, but H Center would be great

Thanks so much, everyone! That was incredibly helpful information.
