Orpheum Theatre Wicked tickets-Minneapolis Orpheum best seats




So, if you're a reader of my blog, and you're a Theatre Lover and live in the Minneapolis area, you probably know that Wicked is currently playing at the Minneapolis Orpheum Theatre. If you haven't seen Wicked yet, but are pondering getting Wicked Tickets, you might be wondering where the best seats in the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis are located.

Now, to be honest (and in my opinion), there really isn't a horrible place to sit in the Orpheum! Check out the Minneapolis Orpheum Theatre seating chart as you read along. About 6 or 7 years ago, I decided to get people theatre tickets as often as possible for birthdays and Christmas presents. Not that I can afford the best every time, but I for sure couldn't back then! I saw Little Women at the Orpheum Theatre around this time and was literally in the last row of the balcony. They were still great seats! The only issue was that we were the furthest away you can be, so we couldn't see all the details, per se, on the stage, but the biggest thing I noticed was that I couldn't make out the facial features of the actors. Not a huge deal. We still had an excellent time at the play, and we didn't miss out on any of the action of the play itself. I've also seen The Lion King at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis, and sat just a few rows in front of the last row of the balcony. It was an absolutely amazing experience! (Not sure if there would be a way to NOT enjoy seeing The Lion King! At the time, it was my very first Broadway musical I had ever seen, and it just blew me away! I hope it comes back again some time!)

Now, if you can afford a little bit more, (or love to splurge a little bit on the good things in life) I LOVE sitting towards the front of the balcony. I almost enjoy overlooking the stage from the first few rows of the balcony than being on the floor. You can see everything from the balcony, and being in the first few rows of the balcony is basically the same as being about a third of the way back on the main floor (That is just a guess, but it seems pretty close!) This is where I sat for Grease last fall.

For Mamma Mia! in March, I think this was the first time I sat on the Main Floor of the Orpheum Theatre. I was towards the back of the main floor section, in a centered section, and I had a wonderful time! I felt like I could see everything really well! Would I have liked to be closer? Yes. Would I sit here again? Yes. (If I couldn't afford closer seats, or this was all that was available!)

Now, what do I really think is THE BEST PLACE to sit for Wicked at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis?

Even though I have not personally sat here yet, I would love to sit about row E-J in a centered section of the main floor. I feel like this would be the perfect place to sit. Not too far back, not too close.

Has anyone ever sat in rows A-D at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis? If you have, I would LOVE to hear from you! I have always wondered, are these first few rows THE BEST seats, or are those seats a little bit too close to the action? Do you have to almost crank your neck back to see what is going on? Are you too close and all you can see is the make up that is caked onto the actors, or is the detail amazing? Please, inquiring minds want to know! Let us know what you thought, if you have sat in the first few rows of the main floor at the Orpheum Theatre!!

At any rate, if you're hoping or planning on purchasing Wicked Tickets for the Minneapolis Orpheum Theatre, you better buy your tickets NOW! I am pretty sure the box office is sold out, or if they are not totally sold out, the quantity has to be very limited. Ticket King does not have Wicked Tickets to every show, so you better act quickly if you want to see Wicked in Minneapolis! I believe this is the 3rd or 4th (check a previous blog of mine! :) time Wicked has been playing in Minneapolis, so who knows when it will be back again!
