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!

Mahalia Jackson Theatre Wicked tickets!



Hey New Orleans Theatre lovers! March and April are your lucky months this year! Wicked will be running at the Mahalia Jackson Theatre in New Orleans from March 24-April 11th! There are a total of 26 performances! Wicked is popular around the world, with numerous tours sold out all over the Nation and abroad! Now is your chance to see Wicked on your home turf! No traveling required! Buy your Mahalia Jackson Theatre Wicked tickets today before they are completely sold out! In the grand scheme of things, 26 performances is not all that much, when you think about how many people are going to want to go to Wicked in New Orleans! It's better to buy your tickets early, then watch them disappear in front of your eyes!

I have not been lucky enough to see Wicked in person, YET! When I was living in Connecticut, Wicked was in Hartford, but by the time I found out, all the tickets were SOLD OUT!!! Now I am left to patiently waiting for the Wicked tour to come to Minneapolis, which I hope is SOON!!! I am a huge fan of The Wizard of Oz, and I cannot wait to see the pre-story of the Witches of Oz! Turns out the Wicked Witch of the West and the Good Witch of the North were roommates in college, and things are not always as they appear! Wicked shows the back story, and we might have everything all wrong with our assumptions on who is good and who is bad! What a great story idea!



Ticket King has tickets in the Orchestra level, row AA at $225 each for the April 11th afternoon show! Check out other ticket options for the Mahalia Jackson Theatre Wicked schedule at TicketKingOnline.com! I cannot wait to see Wicked, winner of three Tony Awards in 2004! Don't delay!

If you've seen Wicked, share with us what you thought of the Musical!

Rochester Auditorium Theatre Wicked tickets available through Ticket King!



The hugely popular Broadway Musical Wicked is coming to Rochester, New York from April 13-May 2, 2010. Wicked tickets have been selling out right and left for every city Wicked has toured! Don't miss out on this chance to see what all the fuss is about! Be sure to get your Broadway Wicked tickets for the Rochester Auditorium Theatre early!

The story of Wicked mostly takes place before Dorothy stumbles upon Oz and Munchkinland. Wicked tells the background story of Elphaba, who becomes the Wicked Witch of the West, and Glinda, the Good Witch of the North.


Originally, Elphaba and Glinda are friends, but their differences in personality, viewpoints, and other life influences bring them to where they end up as we know them from the Wizard of Oz. Buy your Rochester Auditorim Theatre Wicked tickets NOW!



Wicked definitely gives you a different idea about why the Wicked Witch of the West is the way she is....if you've already seen Wicked, or after you see the show, please let me know what you think! I sure had to put my opinion of Elphaba on a pedestal and re-evaluate after reading the synopsis (because I have to admit, I've been wanting to see it, and when it's been in my area, I did not buy Wicked tickets early enough and missed out, so I finally had to read the storyline online!).




The musical version of Wicked premiered in May 2003, in San Francisco, and Wicked opened on Broadway at Gershwin Theatre in October 2003. Wicked was nominated for ten Tony Awards in 2004, winning three Tony Awards, for Best Leading Actress, Best Scenic Design and Best Costume design. Wicked did not win the Tony Award for Best Musical, losing to Avenue Q (check back soon for a blog about Avenue Q!!!). Wicked musical tickets will be flying off the shelves, so buy Wicked tickets now for the lovely...and unlovely witches in your life!

Twenty-five performances might seem like a lot, leading you to believe that you have all the time in the world to purchase your Wicked tickets for Rochester Auditorium Theatre "at a later date", but Wicked grossed more than $56 million in the first year Wicked was on Broadway! The production of Wicked has been playing to capacity for almost every performance! Now is not the time to dawdle! Get on it with purchasing your Wicked tickets before you're outta luck, and GREEN with envy for those that get to attend Wicked without you!
