Here Lies Love is heading to Broadway this summer and the show has already begun to take over the Broadway Theatre. Here’s a first look at the variety of standing and seating options that will be available for the immersive production in the redesigned space.
As designed by three-time Tony Award nominee David Korins, Here Lies Love transforms the Broadway Theatre’s floor space into a dance club environment, where some audience members will stand and move with the actors, and others will enjoy from seats located around the theatre. Four ticketing options will provide audience members with unique and immersive points of view:
Floor
Standing on the dance floor amidst the action, at the center of Here Lies Love’s nightclub-style setting. Dancing is encouraged! You’ll be moving around with the actors throughout the 90-minute performance. All coats, bags, and personal belongings must be checked. There are no seats on the floor. Wheelchair tickets are available on the floor. For stationary wheelchair locations, please see Floorside Seating.
Floorside Seats
Elevated seating alongside the dance floor, with two rows of chairs located directly above the action happening right in front of you. You’ll enjoy the show from a point of view that was designed specifically for this experience. Accessible seating is located in Floorside Sections 1 and 2.
Front Mezzanine
Seated in a traditional theater seat, while still close to the action. The performance extends up to you from the dance floor just below, with actors performing throughout the entire space.
Rear Mezzanine
Seated in a theater seat with a panoramic view of the action. The most traditional, familiar experience for theatergoers.
“Having spent the last 20+ years making both theatrical and immersive/experiential work, I feel confident that Here Lies Love will completely redefine what it means to be an immersive theatrical event on Broadway,” said scenic designer David Korins. “Getting to do this show alongside this group of collaborators in this way is not only a dream come true, but I’m sure will prove to be a high-water mark in all our careers.”
