I want to buy tickets for me and my mom to go see the ballet Cinderella at the Metropolitan Opera House. They range in price from $26 for family circle to $93, $98 orchestra prime, grande tier.
I was just wondering if anyone had any opinions or knew anything about the layout.

Hi - DH have season tickets for the Met and always until this year we always seat in the Family/Dress Circle Area and sometimes the Balcony section.
The Family Circle is all the way up high, the Dress Circle is in the same area, but a little lower if that makes any sense.

Re: anyone know anything about seating at Met. Opera House?
Are those like the "nosebleed" seats? Like what would I be better off with:
Orchestra Prime $93
Orchestra Balance $73
Orchestra Rear $57
Center Parterre $163
Side Parterre $73 SOLD OUT
Grand Tier $98
Dress Circle $62
Balcony $35 SOLD OUT
Family Circle $26
I can't afford Center Parterre, so that's out. But what do you think is the best seat for the money?

Wow, we usually pay about $75-80 a ticket for Dress Circle/Balcony, so I would definately say the best for the money would Orchestra Balance, even Orchestra Prime is good for the $$. We also once sat in the Orechestra Rear for an Opera and even those seats were good. We've sat way up in Family circle before, and even though they are nose bleeds the majority of the seats at the Met are pretty good.

I am a fan of Side Partierre, but they are usually sold out.
