The Raimund Theater
In Raimund Theater, the auditorium has three levels. Ground floor, 1st floor (1. rang), 2nd floor (2. rang). The ground floor rises slightly, but the rise of the first and second floors is almost perfect. Regarding the ground floor and the first floor, there are so-called "sichtgeschränkte" seats, which are located in the line behind the supporting columns and therefore provide a limited view of the stage, but in return they cost "only" 20 euros. By the way, these are not bad places at all, sometimes you can see more of the stage, as if you had bought a ticket for three times as much to the edge of the auditorium in front of the column. For me personally, the second floor is already too high, but it's a matter of taste. For those who do not speak German, I would recommend a seat on one of the sides, because the English subtitles are on the sides of the auditorium in front, and the view from the middle is not so good. On the first day, my ticket was for the first row on the right side of the first floor. I would have done better if I had chosen the second row. Since I am low, the railing hung into the scenes at the front of the stage (as at home in the Operett Budapest theater upstairs) and the legroom was also small (as in the first row of the balcony in the Játékszín Theater in Budapest). The second time (for financial reasons) I chose a place further away from the column on the right (ground floor 16, row 25) and the presence of the column was not so disturbing. Let's say that since I'm low, I'm already used to having to move to the right and left when a taller person is sitting in front of me. I don't mind watching the show from a distance, so if I have the chance to come to this theater next time, I will probably choose this place. By the way, the theater building has been nicely renovated and has a very modern look. There are enough doors to leave the auditorium, but people are only moderately crowded. The cloakroom is free and mandatory. There is also a buffet, but I didn't buy anything there, so I don't know the prices. On the lower level of the theater there is a stand where you can buy all kinds of souvenirs, polo shirts, umbrellas, towels, mugs, fridge magnets, CDs. You can find their prices online in the official webshop. Those who want to ask for an autograph after the performance can wait at the artist entrance. This is on the right side of the building facing the theatre. It says "Bühnen Eingang".
