For Hamilton, I would recommend seats middle and rear orchestra or front dress circle. You won't be able to see the actors's feet if you sit too close to the stage, let alone the fabulous lighting.

When entering the front doors, go all the way to the right. In the corner You will see the floor painted to match the missing mosaic floor tiles.

Book of Mormon is the perfect show for this smaller theater. Very homie and eloquent.

Book of Mormon was hilarious! But,being short it was hard for me to see from the last row of the balcony and the roof slants.It was our first time here since we live in Indianapolis.

Decent theater in Chicago. If you are sitting in balcony, go down one level to the mezzanine for the biggest bathrooms with smallest lines.

Choose seats that are higher up and centered over seats that are lower and towards the back or sides. Lots of obstructive views here

The theatre is beautiful but the staff are incredibly rude. Theatre tickets are expensive so it wouldn’t hurt them to be at least somewhat polite to guests.

Don't sit in the balcony if can avoid it. Very high and steep view of the stage.

Saw Book of Mormon here. Great venue just make sure your seats aren't obstructed

Such a more intimate venue. Only drawback--wait for Ladies' room, but they extended intermission for the misses.

I was in the 2nd row and the stage was high, so I did not have a good view for the very expensive seat.

Really no bad seats in this theater

You can bring your own drinks with you inside the building

If you're in the balcony, take care going down the steps, especially if you are in heels.

Bathrooms are located in the basement. Men go to right upon entering the theatre, women go to the left.

If you're seeing Jersey Boys bring sunglasses. There are a couple scenes that get rather bright. Other than that it's a great show. :)

The mezzanine is a bit chilly. Make sure to bring an extra layer!

Classic Chicago theater with amazing architecture
James DietzApril 8, 2015
For limited view seats, we could see everything on stage. Orchestra section row Z seat 101 and 102.

I heard the language in this play is really blue. So why do I see kids. Bring your offspring at your own risk. Save the moral outrage for Fox news

Very easy to get settled into this production.
