Brought a friend here to watch the Nutcracker during the Christmas season of 2013. Still remember the lovely experience that brings me a smile to this day. Wonderful place, heart-warming performance.
It is a huge theatre, we sat in mid-orchestra seats and still needed theatre binoculars. Wish I could have admired the show costume and sets more had I brought a pair. Will know next time.

We watched an excellent performance of the Paul Taylor Dance Company. It was for their annual gala. After the performance, we we were served cocktails, appetizers and then a three course dinner. The food, wine, cocktails and dessert were delicious!

The theater is nice, but the business model is not. In order to buy tickets online, you have to create an account and register with your email address which leaves you open to their spam.
During checkout, they charge a pretty ridiculous "Web service fee" (Why? What is that?) which can be quite high. Furthermore, they automatically include a donation amount, which is easy to miss. The online ticketing system is very deceptive and designed to milk every cent out of their guests.

Such a special place to see wonderful dance. Took my family to the hall for the first time over the Holidays to see The Nutcracker. It was wonderful to see their awe at the space and appreciation for the dancers -- almost as much fun as my own appreciation. We were in the Third Ring, just right of center, and had great views of everything on stage (as well as the pit orchestra).
I also forgot how Johnson played a little with space, as the entry lobby/ticketing area seems slightly cramped and then you head up the side stairs and the proper lobby opens up beautifully.

Such a beautiful theater. I flew in from Saint Louis just to witness the beautiful Misty Copeland dance for the first time. I was concerned not being from the area that our view would be bad since I purchase seats in the third ring. Not at all! I could see the expressions on the dancers face. I was in third ring, row B, seat 18. My only issue, there was not a restroom for both genders on each side of the theater on our floor. The long walk to the other side with heels on was a chore, especially when you're trying to get in and out between curtain calls. I wish I captured more pictures. I took video but the artwork and detailing was breathtaking. It's nearby subway stations, which I took. The area was well lit and clean. Lincoln Center gorgeous in itself. Attached is the view from my seat.
