Hamilton in Chicago is currently running at the CIBC Theatre (previously known as the PrivateBank Theatre) located in the Loop. The theatre originally opened in 1906, was most recently renovated in 2005, and has 1,800 seats. The theatre is owned by The Nederlander Organization who sold the naming rights; CIBC most recently purchased the naming rights in 2017. The theatre has four sections: orchestra (1st level), dress circle (2nd level), mezzanine (3rd level), balcony (4th level).
Despite being renovated in 2005, there are numerous theatre design issues which lead to various levels of viewing obstructions. Things like overhangs in the back of certain sections or various poles throughout the theatre lead to obstructed views of the stage. A detailed mapping of the theatre by level of obstruction can be found here (and put together by theatreinchicago.com).
Note that we do not agree exactly with the obstruction chart (for example mezzanine left and right center sections rows F through N have minor obstructions of the very front of the stage where no action takes place but are listed as 'Highly Obstructed' on the theatreinchicago.com chart linked above, and orchestra center rows X through ZZZ are not listed as obstructed but you could end up behind a pole!). Our ranking algorithm takes numerous factors into consideration when producing ranks - a key factor of which is the viewing obstructions at CIBC Theatre so you won't end up sitting behind a pole. Listings with single tickets are pushed to the bottom of the rankings. Our ranking algorithm treats all days the same (i.e. it doesn't rank weekends higher than weekdays), however if you would like to search specific dates check out the page search page.
Hamilton in New York is currently running at the Richard Rodgers Theatre on Broadway. The theatre originally opened in 1925, was most recently renovated in 1990, and has 1,319 seats. The theatre is owned by The Nederlander Organization who renamed it in 1990 after Broadway composer Richard Rodgers. The theatre has three sections: orchestra (1st level), front mezzanine (2nd level), and rear mezzanine (2nd level).
A detailed seat map of the theatre can be found here. The Richard Rodgers Theatre is relatively uniform (i.e. very few seats with obstructed views), and thus our ranking algorithm is largely based on seating location and price. All else equal, a seat in front or rear mezzanine row "A" will be ranked slightly lower than the seat directly behind it in row "B" given the less leg room. Listings with single tickets are pushed to the bottom of the rankings. Our ranking algorithm treats all days the same (i.e. it doesn't rank weekends higher than weekdays), however if you would like to search specific dates check out the page search page.
