This picture only gives an impression of how big the orchestra seating level is at the Fox Theatre. I brought a wide angle lens but it decided to have electronic issues during the shoot. (And, of course, it worked fine when I got home.) You can see a mezzanine, the high priced area called the Fox Club, but none of the vast balconies. You need a lot of space to seat 4,400 people.
I don't know what percentage of the seats they usually sell. We've only been a couple of times since it was restored. Hamilton and similar offerings are not up our alley. Snob alert: we've been subscribers to our symphony, across the street, and opera company for more than 40 years. Vissi d'arte.
