Radio City Christmas Show
 
We are looking at seeing one of the Radio City Christmas Shows. I see on their website that there a 4 shows per day. I have looked at the seating plan but am confused with the choice of seats. Please can you recommend the best part of the theatre to sit.

It's a big theatre and a big show. Spectacular, even. ;)

I would choose something in the orchestra or front mezzanine.

It's not just a big theater, it's a HUGE theater (nearly 6,000 seats). I would also choose something closer to the front!

The theater is enormous. If you're not fairly close it will be like looking at ants running around the stage. the very first rows (up to about 12 or so) aren't good because you're so close you may miss some of the action at the sides. But I would go for as close to that as you can get and definiteley in the center (the far sides are fatal). If you look you may find discounted tickets - so use that and pay for the decent seats - rather than waste time and money on seeing little.

The front of the first mezzanine would be my pick but you can get an idea of what the view would be from any seat by using their website http://www.radiocity.com/seating/index.html
